Overview


Most of the songs come from albums released during 1979–1990, from Degüello through Recycler. Exceptions include remixes of "Tush" and "La Grange", and the non-album tracks "Viva Las Vegas" and "Gun Love". "Viva Las Vegas" was previously released as a single.

The vinyl version of the album omitted four tracks included on the CD version ("Cheap Sunglasses", "I'm Bad, I'm Nationwide", "Pearl Necklace", and "Planet of Women") and some tracks on the vinyl version are also edited from the original running length.

A companion video album titled Greatest Hits: The Video Collection was also released.
