I have no problem with almost all of these. Does the fifth one have too much "experience"? Oh, by the way, I've jumped in on this GAR as CaliforniaDreamsFan appears busy. I'd defer to her preferences if any of these changes are contentious.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 06:33, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

Done. I believe "flip-side" refers to the other side of a cassette tape. For some cassingles the flip-side was blank, for others it had the same tracks as the front/first side (as appears to be the case here). I just got rid of "flip-"; this seems to work unless CDF objects.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 06:40, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
