Silver Machine isn't on the Greasy Truckers LP, though it's true that
the Silver Machine and Welcome tracks from The Glastonbury Fayre album
are actually the Greasy Truckers recordings, so if you're listening to a
tape or boot of Greasy Truckers then certainly that's the version you'll
hear.

Is there a boot CD or CDR of the whole Greasy Truckers gig?

There's also something in the back of my mind about the actual single
just being a remix of another (or this?) track with Lemmy's vocals
overdubbing Calvert's.
