However, a different mixer listed on "I Can't Wait" surely does increase the probablity of these being actual outtakes, unlike all of those "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around"s.

I could swear I have a master-quality version of SDMHA with a totally different vocal. Remember, back in those days, they would lift a line or two from one take or another take, here and there, and "mash" them together into the final product. So there are likely to be scads of vocal takes of this. I will post this alternate vocal if I can find it when I get home...
I just googled, and Don Smith worked on much, if not all of RAL, so there could be some familiar mixes on these cassettes. But the 8:50 mix is intriguing since the longest remix on the official 12" single is 6:20. And I like that one of the cassettes is labeled with the word "vamp." And we all know how Mama liked to vamp in the halcyon days of RAL. I could just imagine 5 minutes of "Oooooh, we'ell... no, no, no, no, baby, I can't wait, alright! Yeah!"
