referencing Your Love Is King (12", 45 RPM, Maxi-Single, Stereo) A12.4137

Does anybody know in regards to the 12" b-side, what the source is for this particular ( and unique) recording of smooth operator/snake bite ? The vocals are a bit more rough and obviously in a lower range so is it a first attempt at a studio version, demo, live take? My uniformed guess would be a live take from the same performance that "love affair with life" is sourced from.
