Greatest Hits that were double albums

Genesis - The Best...Genesis

 

It took three pages for someone to list this one? It’s only 23X platinum!

 

Yes Bobby it really is. Fantastic cover art too. Had to buy two copies of the CD set to be able to compile one in great shape.

Bought the later released Polydor disc and not the first Polar one.

 

Some of my preferences not mentioned...

1.Ray Charles / A 25th Anniversary in Show Business Salute to RC (1971)...36 bona fide hits on 2 records & remains the definitive document of Rays early career on wax

2.Bo Diddley / Got My Own Bag Of Tricks (1972)...24 of Bo's greatest

3.Jerry Lee Lewis / Rockin Up A Storm (1974)...JLL was never allowed to make a great studio album & for this sin those responsible will suffer eternal damnation in fires of hell, anyway...

28 Sun hits from the Killer & his pumping piano in glorious mono

4.The Temptations / Anthology (1973)...sprawling 3 record set that proved along with the Stones that the Temps were the best at balancing the business of sex & politics...

They were unsurpassed over the long haul

5.Fats Domino / Legendary Master Series (1971)...all the hits & more at the right speed no less

6.Ricky Nelson / Legendary Master Series (1971)...see Fats above

7.The Miracles / Greatest Hits - The Beggining (1965)...22 hits from 1958-1965

8.Diana Ross & The Supremes / Greatest Hits (1967)...equaled only by the Beatles for #1s during the 60s

9.Buddy Holly / Legend (1985)...mastered by Hoffman & all essential

10.Elvis / 24 Karat Hits...more than essential, the best EP will ever sound.Period.

Yeah I'm old but I know good music
