yeah, sorry, the confusion of names was mine - though I should have
known better since I was seriously into Folk/Rock for several years!
So, yes, Richard Thompson and Danny Thompson (both of them) are not
related in any way except for a coincidental similarity of names.

However the original question was "what was the (if any) relationship
between Richard Thompson's acknowledgement of thanks to Dave Brock and
the Dave Brock of Hawkwind.   Are they the same and, if so, why the
acknowledgement?"   Is it possible your friend would be able to answer
this too - if so I'd be interested!

thanks
