Goofs

Factual errors: Near the end of the film, Bobby Speed is shown putting a record from Motown Records inside the sleeve for MECO's Star Wars and Other Galactic Funk. The album was put out by Millenium Records, which was at the time a subsidiary of Casablanca Records (co-producer of the film with Motown Records). In Meco's long career, he has also been associated with, in chronological order, Casablanca Records and RCA, but never with Motown Records. See more »
