Legend (Robin of Sherwood soundtrack)

"Robin (The Hooded Man)", the title theme from the series, was released on a 7-inch single in 1984, featuring actor Michael Praed as Robin of Sherwood on the sleeve.

In addition, "Now Is Here" and "Scarlet Inside" were released as singles in their own right.

"Robin (The Hooded Man)" was re-released in 1986 as an "Extended Play Single" with a newly recorded version of the title theme and featuring actor Jason Connery on the sleeve. For this re-release, the B-sides include "Now Is Here", "Herne" and "Caisleán Óir" (as it appears on the album Macalla).

In addition to the tracks on Legend, which were used extensively in the series, music composed for the show was occasionally released elsewhere in different versions.

The introduction track to Clannad's Macalla album "Caislean Oir" appeared in an alternate version as incidental music in the series.

In 2003, Clannad albums from the Sony/BMG label were remastered and released with new cover art, and remixes as bonus tracks. For the 2003 Deluxe Edition of Legend, the bonus track was "Together We – Cantoma Mix".

On the 2005 release Clannad: Live in Concert, there were live performances of unreleased music including "Dance & Teidhir Abhaile Riu" from Series 1 and "Action" and "Royal" from Series 3 as part of a "Robin of Sherwood Medley".

Another theme from the series was reworked as the song "Almost Seems (Too Late to Turn)".

In a statement posted in November 2003 on their official web site, Clannad revealed that,

"there were several other pieces of music recorded for the 3rd series of Robin of Sherwood that were not included on the Legend album. Unfortunately no-one has been able to locate the master tapes of this music. The search is continuing and hopefully one day these recordings will be able to be released."

Both sets 1 and 2 of the European and North American Blu-ray releases of Robin of Sherwood have a "music only" track for many of the episodes. This allows listeners to hear music from all 3 series, including music that was not included on "Legend" and music recorded after the release of Legend, to be heard on their own.

During the 1984 tour, the setlist included full live versions of "Lady Marian", "Now Is Here", "Robin (The Hooded Man)", "Scarlet Inside", "Herne", "Ancient Forest" and "Battles".

Since then, Clannad regularly includes a "Robin Of Sherwood Medley" in their setlist that typically includes the title song, and segments of "Lady Marian", "Herne" and "Ancient Forest", as well as the unreleased "Dance" from Series 1 and two songs from Series 3 entitled "Action" and "Royal" that have only been released on live albums including Clannad: Live in Concert (released 2005).
