Heavy Horses was the first album recorded by Jethro Tull at the newly constructed Maison Rouge studio in Fulham, London, a custom built recording studio which was funded and owned by Ian Anderson.

The track has since appeared on compilation albums such as The Best of Jethro Tull – The Anniversary Collection and The Very Best Of, with the latter album featuring a 3:19 edited version due to the album length.
