History
By the early 1990s, Donovan's 1965 Pye Records recordings had been reissued many times. Instead of simply reissuing the same recordings, Remember Records assembled a compilation with eleven of the 1965 recordings and seven songs from Donovan's 1984 album Lady of the Stars. The Lady of the Stars recordings included re-recordings of "Sunshine Superman" and "Season of the Witch". The album cover of Sunshine Superman: 18 Songs of Love and Freedom did not indicate any difference between the original recordings and the Lady of the Stars versions included.
