hw: sonic boom killers: best of singles a's and b's: '70 to '80

[Allan T Grohe Jr]

I ran across this collection today, unexpected, at a sleazy record store.

Is this worth getting if you have the remasters as well as _Stasis: the UA
Years_?  The CD appears on the Repertoire label, is (c) 1998.  It's full
title is _Hawkwind: Sonic Boom Killers: Best of Singles A's and B's 1970
to 1980_.

Here're the contents, as I scribed them down today (I didn't write down
the songs in order of appearance:  I grabbed them in order, then added
the B sides as they came up on the tracklist:  ie', if i list a b-sdie,
it appears on the CD, though likely later in the track order than the
original).  Sorry, but I had only a 3x5" piece of paper...:

I checked the Codex @
http://www.pcmicro.com.au/~Sonique/Hawkwind/files/codex.txt and found
no mention of this compilation, but was unable to check the
ftp://ftp.spc.edu/boc-l codex version:  has it moved?

Just contributing to the common HW Lore :-)

Allan.
