Recently, The Beatles’ Red and Blue compilation albums were reissued, once again drawing attention to the band’s most legendary and iconic tracks. 12 additional tracks also made the cut including: I Saw Her Standing There, Twist and Shout, Roll Over Beethoven, Now and Then and more. Let’s say that, hypothetically, you had a friend who wasn’t familiar with The Beatles’ discography — you’d probably show them songs off of this compilation.

In that same vein, today’s Coffee Break is dedicated to artists and bands with some solid “Greatest Hits” albums, compilations, etc. These releases should have enough iconic music that if a listener wanted a solid introduction to the artist/band, there would be plenty of worthy material within them.

For today’s 9:30 Coffee Break, which artists/bands with the best “Greatest Hits” albums do you want to hear?
