Greatest Hits is a greatest hits album by the boy band Take That.

[edit] Album information

Following the band's announcement that they were to split on February 13, 1996, the greatest hits compilation was released through RCA Records on March 4, 1996, and contained their final single, cover of The Bee Gees How Deep Is Your Love, which became their final number one hit on the UK Singles Chart before their reunion in 2005. The compilation was re-released in 1998 and 2004.

The album was the 8th best selling of 1996 in the UK. The album has been certified as 3x Platinum in the UK.

The album re-entered the Irish albums charts after Take That performed the Irish leg of their Circus Tour on the 13th June 2009 in Dublin.
