Golden Tracks in Bloomington, MN

This album, which was
Donovan
's 17th studio project, was originally released as
Lady of the Stars
in 1984. It included re-recordings of two of his 1960s classics,
"Sunshine Superman"
and
"Season of the Witch,"
neither of which came close to improving on the original versions. Most of what is here is forgettable, save for the competent title track,
"Lady of the Stars,"
which has a little bit of the old
magic, and a re-recording of the odd
"Local Boy Chops Wood,"
reportedly written for former
Rolling Stone
Brian Jones
, the original version of which had appeared on 1977's
.
has been reissued countless times by several labels under an assortment of titles, including
Till I See You Again
,
Gold
Golden Hits
Golden Tracks
Forever Gold
Sunshine Superman
(not to be confused with
's fine 1966 release of the same title), and
Sunshine Troubador
