Mellow is a compilation album from Scottish singer-songwriter Donovan. It was released on November 1, 1997 (Recall 158).

History

In 1997, Recall Records reissued a large portion of Donovan's 1965 Pye Records catalog with the two CD compilation Mellow. The album excluded several songs from those recordings, however, including "Turquoise" and "Hey Gyp (Dig the Slowness)".
