[edit] Notes

  1. ^ Allmusic review
  2. ^ George Starostin review
  • "Sunshine Day" was the first single released by Tull, on February 16, 1968.
  • "The Chateau D'Isaster Tapes" comprises three sections: "Scenario", "Audition" and "No Rehearsal". These later appeared as separate tracks on Nightcap.
  • Many of these tracks are currently available on the remastered editions of Jethro Tull's studio albums.
  • "17" and "A Stitch in Time" are shortened compared to the original 7" version (6:07 and 4:20 respectively). The original version of "17" was released on the Collector's Edition of Stand Up, released October 2010. To date, the original version of "A Stitch In Time" is unavailable.
