Tracklisting and durations are different between releases, Fremeaux release seems the most accurate.

ex:
1.3 & 1.4
Fremeaux is right on this one, the songs are clearly different: Last 1:30 from track 3 Buda version are the start of track 4 from Fremeaux.

1.8 & 1.9
Hard to tell, could be same track or not. 7, 8 & 9 looks really similar so it's hard to distinguish them

2.1
There is indeed a change after 4:30 (no more sing and new instrument) but this is done continiously (= without break).

Regarding other releases:
- LPs: Almost not matching for all tracks
- Globe CD: Match Fremeaux for 1.3 (Mon amour) but Buda for 1.8 (Bel oiseau) and 2.1 (Pensees). Then not at all for other shared tracks except last one.

Then considering:
- Those 2 "new songs" don't appear on any other release (1.9 & end of 2.1)
- Liner notes show "editing and mastering in 2013..."
- Francois Jouffa collaborates to many other projects with Fremeaux (Rock n roll compilations,...)
- There is an obvious quality difference (See spectrograms or just listen to them)

It seems better to trust the Fremeaux release, they may had access to the original materials.
