It was produced as a vinyl LP in a limited edition of 4,000 copies, and released on April 3, 2019 in conjunction with Record Store Day.

The tracks on Sage & Spirit were excerpted from the albums Workingman's Dead (1970), American Beauty (1970), Europe '72 (1972), Wake of the Flood (1973), From the Mars Hotel (1974), Blues for Allah (1975), Shakedown Street (1978), and Go to Heaven (1980).
