Greatest Hits is Neil Young's third compilation album after Decade and Lucky Thirteen. Eleven of the first twelve tracks appear on Decade, and the disc spans his solo career from 1969 through 1992. All tracks on this album were remastered using the HDCD process, which Young has been utilizing for his studio work since 1995

It may be hard to believe, but 2004's Greatest Hits is not only the first retrospective Neil Young has released since 1977's Decade, it's the first ever single-disc collection of his best-known songs.

All tracks on this album were remastered using the HDCD process, which Young has been utilizing for his studio work since 1995 The album was also released as a high-resolution DVD Video disc with 24bit 96kHz audio, and in a two-disc format including the audio album plus a bonus DVD with videos for "Rockin' in the Free World" and.

Fittingly, Greatest Hits skews to Young's early material: Eleven of these tracks represent his 1969-71 output, and only two songs postdate the 1970s (and, therefore, the still-in-print, two-disc Decade). The implication is that Young more or less faded away, and that his first few albums far outshine his subsequent material. The sadly missed "Cortez the Killer" and "Tonight's the Night" are the set's most obvious exclusions, but the dismissal of late-era tracks like "This Note's for You", "Fuckin' Up", or even "From Hank to Hendrix" is unfortunate, too. Of course, it's all too easy to nitpick any greatest-hits tracklist- any of them could be said to carry grievous omissions or curious inclusions.

Greatest Hits is Neil Young's third compilation album after Decade and Lucky Thirteen. Youngs often-distorted electric guitar work, deeply personal lyrics and signature tenor singing voice transcend his long career, Young also plays piano and harmonica on many albums which frequently combine folk, rock, blues and other musical styles. Known to rip up live set lists, Young often plays acoustic versions of songs in one show and his gritty guitar work, especially with Crazy Horse, earned him the nickname Godfather of Grunge and led to his 1995 album Mirror Ball with Pearl Jam.

The Greatest Hits is the definitive collection of Neil Young's most-loved songs including 'Cinnamon Girl', 'The Needle And The Damage Done', 'Heart Of Gold', 'Rockin' In The Free World' and 'Harvest Moon'. The album also features Young's best work with Crosby, Stills and Nash in the form of 'Helpless' and 'Ohio'.
