 Encyclopedia: Greatest Hits
A greatest hits album (also sometimes referred to as a "best of" album) is an album of successful, previously released songs by a particular music artist or band.
A Greatest hits album tends to have more objective song choices (based on single chart positions) while a Best of album is more oriented towards fan favorites and album tracks.
For examples, The Beatles 1967-1970 is a best of album (largely consisting of album tracks), whereas The Beatles 1 is a greatest hits album (based exclusively on chart positions).

 Greatest Hits (Kylie Minogue album) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kylie Minogue's Greatest Hits is a compilation album by Australian singer Kylie Minogue, released in 1992.
The version included on this album was not the UK hit single version, but rather the US remix, which had been released as a single only in the US, where it had failed to chart.
It contains 19 hit singles from her albums Kylie, Enjoy Yourself, Rhythm of Love and Let's Get To It, as well as 3 songs recorded specifically for inclusion on this album.

 CNN.com - Everybody's greatest hits - Aug 18, 2005
NEW YORK (AP) -- A greatest-hits album often stood as a watershed -- a milestone chronicling a collection of top-rated hits, culturally significant songs or the end of a stellar career (or, at least, the term of a record label recording contract).
The Eagles' "Their Greatest Hits: 1971-1975" is the best-selling album in U.S. history, selling more than 28 million copies.
At least Spears had many hits during that time; teen queen Hilary Duff has sold millions of albums but only released two discs -- the first one in 2003 -- and neither spawned a top 10 hit.
