Reissues

Saga Records produced another album with Sandy Denny: Sandy and Johnny. In 1970 Saga released a compilation called It's Sandy Denny that featured the songs Denny recorded for the label, partly as alternate takes.

The complete material (original plus alternate takes) has been put out by Castle Music in 2005 under the title Where the Time Goes.
