Abstract Sound on Gray Sounds - mislabeled?

[chas_kit]

My copy of the Abstract Sound on Gray Sounds seems to have reverse labels - "Blacked Out Mind" plays "I'm Trying" and vice-versa. However the runout has a "1" for the label marked GS-006-A ("Blacked Out Mind") and a "2" for the flip GS-006-B ("I'm Trying"), so it's not so much the wrong label was applied, but instead the labels were misprinted.

In any case, do your copies play like this or are they correct to the song?

Misprinted labels here, too.

Another Abstract Sound question: Did the Sound of Soul press came before Gray Sounds??

Mine's reversed too. But I still prefer the Gray Sounds pressing even with the reversed labels, because it's louder and clearer. The SOS pressing sounds ok, but upon comparison with the Gray Sounds it sounds weak and slightly muffled or boxy.

According to a group member, most of the copies of the Gray Sounds label 45 have reversed labels, but a few do exist with correctly corresponding labels. I have one but it is marked as a DJ copy.
The Sound Of Soul release was done without the group's knowledge several months later.
