Best "Greatest Hits" Album of All Time?

[Shawn@PRS]

A different thread got me thinkin' about this. What is the best "Greatest Hits" album of all time? Go!

 

[sergiodeblanc]

Hmmm... I’ve bought the Eartn Wind & Fire Greatest Hits Volume 1 about six or seven times in my life, so for me that’d be the one.

Edit: The Sade one is pretty good too, especially when I got the deluxe one with a VHS tape of a concert.

Hmmmmm, these days I tend to only get the Greatest Hits Albums....but, one that I dig all the way through is Number Ones by Michael Jackson.

Toss up. Queen Greatest Hits I or The Who Greatest Hits and More

Now, if the thread was "Best Name of a Greatest Hits Album" it would be this:

Dream Theater
Greatest Hit.......(and 21 other pretty cool songs)

 

[walrus]

"1" - The Beatles.

Or, the "Red" and "Blue" Beatles albums.

Toss up for me - Elton John's "Greatest Hits", Queen's "Greatest Hits", or Kiss "Double Platinum" (sorry, Shawn!). I've had multiple copies of each.

I was gonna say Kiss, but figured I'd leave it for you. I hope to do a factory tour in October and I don't want Shawn shoving me into a CNC machine.

Tough to top Queen’s Greatest Hits, save perhaps with Queen Rocks.

 

[11top]

I’m going with The Eagles just to piss Sergio off again.

 

[László]

I’ll go with Beatles “1.”

Second would be Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers Greatest Hits.

Then there’s my own album, “None.”

 

[11top]

I’ll go with Beatles “1.”

But that will piss him off, too.




That’s actually my choice, too, Les.

 

[DISTORT6]

Lynyrd Skynyrd - Gold & Platinum

 

[sergiodeblanc]

But that will piss him off, too.




That’s actually my choice, too, Les.

At least the Eagles have one good song.

 

[Shawn@PRS]

Kiss "Double Platinum" (sorry, Shawn!). I've had multiple copies of each.

Because your friends keep breaking the discs. Always remember - an intervention is an act of love

 

[veinbuster]

At least the Eagles have one good song.

Which one?

 

[Shawn@PRS]

What about Legend by Bob Marley?

 

[veinbuster]

What about Legend by Bob Marley?

That would be my pick.

 

[sergiodeblanc]

Which one?

Hotel California.

What about Legend by Bob Marley?

I would cheat and go Songs of Freedom.

Ok it’s the era I grew up in:

Elton John’s Greatest Hits, the first f$&’king one

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers GH, again the first F$*&@)king one.

I just wanted to be clear
