As Guy says....

The 7" single is a re-done studio version with Lemmy on vocals

The original version was live at the Roundhouse (also known as the
Greasy Truckers concert) with Bob on vocals however the track was not
released on the Greasy Truckers album but on Glastonbury Fayre.

My Question:  So why did the two Hawkwind tracks from the Roundhouse appear
on the Glastonbury Fayre album?   This has puzzled me muchly for many years!
