      A while ago I imported my last.fm Scrobbles into ListenBrainz.

      The data is there on my LB Profile however when you click on Open in Musicbrainz it opens a new tab for a recording that doesn't exist.

      Example

      Welcome to My Life by Simple Plan opens a recording link from LB of:

      https://beta.musicbrainz.org/recording/07e0c79d-018d-4933-a5c5-42c340c01169

      Which doesn't exist

      One would expect it to go to:

      https://beta.musicbrainz.org/recording/a49a6ede-a1af-468c-a0c7-e995db013e09

      However, during the IRC session we found that 07e0c79d-018d-4933-a5c5-42c340c01169 is actually a track ID, not a recording ID:

      https://beta.musicbrainz.org/track/07e0c79d-018d-4933-a5c5-42c340c01169

      Which does find a suitable recording link (not the expected one but at least something.

      This has apparently been resolved with revisions to the last.fm import tool, but as mine was previous this issue is present.

      Is it possible to either have early imported data like this to be set to look-up the track or maybe instead wipe my last.fm scrobble data and allow me to re-import?
