On my copy, the labels are the same on both sides. "side one" label on both sides. Must be a factory error.
However, this is another great album by Frank. Very high level of musicianship from the beginning to the end of this record. George Duke is fantastic on electric piano. Great compositions by Frank. These musicians stand with the best!
