Who Knows Where the Time Goes? is a retrospective compilation of the work of English folk rock singer Sandy Denny issued in 1985. It is a four-LP boxed set released on the Island Records label in the UK and Germany and on Hannibal/Carthage Records in the US, later reissued as a three-CD set. It includes released and previously unreleased recordings from 1967 to 1977, live performances, outtakes and demos from Denny's solo career, and with Fairport Convention, Fotheringay and Strawbs.
The set included a twenty-page booklet featuring many photographs of Denny, her family, and friends, as well as lyrics of most of the songs, and instrumental credits.
AllMusic praised the album, describing it as "[a] magnificently produced ... complete portrait of Sandy Denny", Denny herself as "the haunting singer, the melodic, mournful songwriter", and summed up the collection as "[t]he album makes the case for Denny as a major folk artist."[5]
Rolling Stone magazine's David Fricke described the set as "worthy of her largely unrecognized talent... (and) has captured her finest hours for all time"[6]
