Notes

Tabu Records, Inc./© 1980 CBS Inc./℗ 1980 CBS Inc./Manufactured and distributed by CBS Records/CBS Inc.

Dedicated to Eric F. Ellis, born December 1, 1979.
"The earth has music for those who listen"

Some versions have no cat# printed on the spine. This was fixed by adding a very thin clear sticker with the numbers printed on it. Then covered with a bigger clear strip/sticker.

Promotional version has gold stamp on back of jacket "For Promotion Only Ownership Reserved by CBS Sale Is Unlawful"
This version has the The Mastering Labs logo stamped in the dead wax along with the Santa Maria pressing plant etch "S 1"

    Fred Wesley, Richard "Kush" Griffith, & Maceo Parker assisted with horns. The P-Funk Horn section. No wonder they sound so full.
