NOTE: "On STORM 14 (Inner Mind 12"), the Something Stronger / Infinity Mix lock groove appears on both sides of the record. The label only mentions it being on the 'Outer' (B) side.

NOTE: "The above track listing is what's listed on the record labels and are the tracks that are actually on the record. The record jacket fails to list track B2 plus lists the tracks out of order. So if you were to buy this record still sealed, you would have no idea that it contained track B2. I hate when this happens!" - IMAZOMBIE
