Points well taken. The only reason I thought it noteworthy to menion that the cover model is "black" is because most albums by "white" easy listening artists of the period featured "white" cover girls on their albums - even the exotic albums. On a related note, some 10 years after this LP's release, F&T would go on to record their classic "Hong Kong Soul Brother," further breaking down ethnic boundaries and really sticking it to The Man.
