Notes

Allmusic review
Puterbaugh, Parke (1 December 1988). "Jethro Tull: 20 Years of Jethro Tull: Highlights". Rolling Stone. Retrieved 5 June 2017.

"Sunshine Day" was the first single released by Tull, on 16 February 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. The full-length version of "A Stitch In Time" was released on the 2019 collector's edition of Stormwatch.
