(In the United Kingdom, it was released as Amazing Grace: THE BEST OF JUDY COLLINS, not to be confused with her 1985 UK album Amazing Grace.)

The album peaked at No. 37 on the Billboard Pop Albums charts.[3] It was produced by Mark Abramson of Elektra Records and contains 12 tracks, including her U.S. top-forty hit cover of Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now",[4] her recording of "Amazing Grace", Sandy Denny's "Who Knows Where the Time Goes", and Collins' own composition "Albatross" (the latter two recordings were included in the film adaptation of The Subject Was Roses).[5] Former United States president Bill Clinton has called the album an all-time favorite.[6]

The album was certified Gold by the RIAA in 1974, for sales of over 500,000 copies. It was later certified Platinum in 1997, for sales of over 1,000,000 copies.[7]
