This seems to be a compilation entirely of Flicknife material (except for
the Brock interview), so even though I haven't heard it yet, I would
suspect that ...

These are from 'Friends & Relations' vol.2 (and also Weird 106)

This would be the Flicknife single version (B-side of "Valium Ten")

the single version?)

and this one from 'Friends & Relations' vol.1 (although the timing seems
way off)

and this track also appeared as the B-side of "Whose Gonna Win The War"

It looks like a great compilation of all the essential Flicknife
singles/EPs/comp material (excluding non-Hawkwind material - I think that
"Raj Neesh" and "Caanes Ventacei" are major highlights of the 'Friends &
Relations' series, and it would've been nice to have both sides of Brock's
"Social Alliance" solo 7") except "Drug Cabinet Key" (aka "Flying Doctor")
from 'Friends & Relations' vol.3 - what's up with that?
