Greatest Hits is the fourth compilation album by American country music artist Barbara Mandrell. The album was produced by Tom Collins and released on MCA Records in March 1985. The album was her first compilation for MCA Records.

Background and content

Greatest Hits consisted of 10 major hits Barbara Mandrell charted between 1978 and 1985, ranging from her second number 1 single in 1978, "If Loving You Is Wrong (I Don't Want to Be Right)", to 1984's "Happy Birthday Dear Heartache". It also included three additional number 1 singles by Mandrell: "Years", "I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool" and "One of a Kind Pair of Fools". Dan Cooper of Allmusic gave the album four out of five stars but criticized her musical style: "Hank Williams definitely didn't do it this way. Nevertheless, "I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool" summed up a lot of folks' feelings as the Travolta crowd tried to claim him as their own."^[1] The album also included "There's No Love in Tennessee", a new song recorded specifically for this collection.

Release

Greatest Hits spawned one single, "There's No Love in Tennessee". The song became a Top 10 hit in 1985, peaking at #7 on the Billboard Magazine Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart^[2] and also peaked at #24 on the Canadian RPM Country Tracks chart. The album itself peaked at #27 on the Billboard Magazine Top Country Albums chart and missed the Billboard 200 albums chart, reaching #210 that year.^[3] Greatest Hits was originally released on an LP album upon its original release in 1985, with five songs on each of the record, total of 10 songs.^[4] The album was later reissued on a compact disc also under MCA.^[1]
