  1. I have a Prince Dirty Mind LP BSK 3478 and on the B side it has an incorrect label. The label is Donna Summer The Wanderer GHS 2000.

  2. The Wanderer was Geffen Records first release, and Geffen Records was distributed in the US by Warner. They probably shared the same manufacturing plants...
