This Associated Press article about the refusal of the band Cake to do a Greatest Hits album has some interesting points and also led me to thinking (always a dangerous thing). What are my favorite greatest hits albums? Here are my top 10 in no order whatsoever. For me a hits album is synonymous with a singles album so keep that in mind peeps. To the list!
Squeeze — “Here let me get that spot of cream cheese for you”
1) Squeeze – Singles 45’s and Under
2) Chuck Berry – The Great 28
3) Buzzcocks – Singles Going Steady
Buzzcocks — not at all drunk
4) The Beatles – Red and Blue Albums
5) The Rolling Stones – Through The Past, Darkly
6) The Cars – Greatest Hits
James Brown discovers that the stage of the Apollo has been freshly mopped
7) James Brown – The CD of JB
The Cure – Standing on a Beach
9) Buddy Holly – From The Original Master Tapes
10) Aretha Franklin – 30 Greatest Hits
Did I leave any of your favorites out? Let me know!
