oh I love these questions!   I dive into the collection only to discover
I haven't got the full info I thought I had and that it's a great deal
more confusing than I realised  8-(

"Ejection" is listed in the LoL sleeve notes as the single mix
and it certainly was released as a single backed with "Catch a Falling
Starfighter".    However single mix may mean nothing more than hacking a
chunk off the end to make it fit on a 7" so I'll play it through first
and can let you know if it comes straight from Capt Lockheed.

However:

"The Right Stuff" is also (on the info sheet) said to be a "single mix".
This is interesting because to the best of my knowledge Calvert never
released this track as a single.   At least I've no indication of it!
Can anyone confirm?

If there is no single version this may again turn out to be the same as
the LP - but again, I'll check.

On the whole, though, if you already have Capt. Lockheed I might now
hesitate to recommend you buy Lord of Light as well.   The other tracks
on it are all single mixes of existing album tracks.   The 7" vinyl
versions are fairly rare and difficult to get hold of now but they won't
differ all that much from the album and, as someone said previously, if
you already have the albums then I really wouldn't bother with this CD
since the only "different" track is Nik Turner's.

I'll confirm the rest later.
