The Best of the Band is the first greatest hits package by Canadian-American rock group The Band.

The Band is the second studio album by the Band, released on September 22, 1969. It is also known as The Brown Album. According to Rob Bowman's liner notes for the 2000 reissue, The Band has been viewed as a concept album, with the songs focusing on people, places and traditions associated with an older version of Americana.

The band released their first released studio album Sigh No More (2009). Their debut peaked at number two on the UK Albums Chart and the Billboard 200 in the US. Their second and third studio album Babel and Wilder Mind both debuting at number one in the UK and US, the former becoming the fastest-selling rock album of the decade. The band received eight total Grammy nominations for Babel and won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year. They also won the Brit Award for Best British Group in 2013.

That said, for the real neophyte, this single-disc, 11-song album may be as good as anything

The Band’s second album might have been called America. Robbie Robertson and Levon Helm were both partial to that grandiose moniker-years later, it was one of the only things they still agreed on. Harvest was also considered, as the record was conceived as a concept album about the South that begins with the promise of spring and ends with the make-or-break finality of the fall, when a farmer pleads for deliverance from financial ruin in King Harvest (Has Surely Come). They were children hanging out in the world’s coolest treehouse, best pals who spent weeks trading jokes and shooting pool, and then imbuing their freewheeling spirit into the ultimate hang out album that they happened to make in the process. That sense of togetherness, and the possibility of a counter-culture in which each person is crucial and valued as such, is what makes The Band so seductive.
