As per both the record's title, the LP's back cover, and the Rhino CD reissue, the "Rhythm" side of this album comes first, followed by the "Poetry" side. This can be confusing as the original LP's matrix numbers show the lower number for the "Poetry" side and the higher number for the "Rhythm" side, the reverse of Warner's usual practice. Correct running sequence is:
A1 Soul Train 5:03
A2 Run Jody Run 13:10
B1 Good Things 5:55
B2 Here Comes The Sun 5:05
B3 Girl, Don't Let Me Down 4:20
B4 Just Free Your Mind 4:00
