You could also speculate that the PT series was actually going to be Orb releases but for some reason (maybe due to artistic differences) it never happened and with Bill's uncanny business sense Jimmy and Bill decided to release them under the name 'KLF'...
From someone who shared a squat/hovel/bedsit for a few years with some other DJs it's very easy to appreciate how tracks can be created by one person, then almost 'divvied' up between different bands depending on what kind of audience that band was trying to appeal to at the time.

Subject: Re: RE: [KLF] Mummy Don't/Hello (Good To Be Back) Samples I think it's safe to say that "Mummy Don't" is more of an Orb title than a KLF title, and if it was recorded early 1989 it certainly shows more commercial savvy than "Tripping on Sunshine" or the "Kiss EP". Two possibilities: (1) it wasn't called "Mummy Don't" originally, but "3 AM Eternal (Blue Danube)" and the refined, or (2) if "3AM" had been released autumn 1988, possibly in its flamenco style, rather than summer 1989, this track would have been an Orb "companion single". Bare in mind, Alex compiled the "What Time is Love" story, and the lines between KLF and Orb in mid-to-late 1989 were very blurred. Did "Chill Out" contain some of Alex's bits, and has "Space" eradicated everything he contributed ... I wonder ...? John

where do (a) the "Eternaaaals" (presumably recorded 88/89 - by the same "chorus" as "Doctoring the Tardis"?)
Those *could* have been taken from an early recording. Keep in mind that Graham Lee told us that they recorded at least one unkown "flamenco" version of 3AM of which the date is unkown...
But...
and (b) the Jesus Loves You samples come from?
This, however, is a really good point, since "After The Love" has been released in 1989.
Since the Blue Danube Orbital remix of 3AM got released in May 1989, Mummy Don't was probably recorded earlier that year. Unless of course Mummy Don't is a remix of 3AM instead.
