Greatest Hits and Black Beauties is an album by L.A. Guns. Although the title would indicate that the album featured the group's biggest hits, it is in fact more accurately described as a unique studio album, featuring re-recordings of older L.A. Guns songs in a newer style, along with a handful of new tracks.

Three years later, the band released an album with a similarly misleading title, Ultimate LA Guns, presented as the band's second greatest hits album (following Best Of: Hollywood a Go-Go); however, this release included the same re-recordings featured on Greatest Hits and Black Beauties instead of the original hit versions of the songs.
