Eighteen live acoustic tracks recorded between 1982 and 1986 during a world tour.

Recorded by Pat (of Donovan's Friends). Mellow Records is his company which paid for recording Donovan over the years.

Hurdy Gurdy Man includes the extra George Harrison verse not recording in the original studio version. Young But Growing, Stealing and Love Will Find A Way are all previously unrecorded tracks.

This CD was released in the US with the title The Classics Live with a different cover, also shown here.

For some reason, the contents of this album have been reissued continuously, under different titles and with different track listings. Most are budget releases. Here are a few that I'm aware of:
