Greatest Hits is the fifteenth Crosby, Stills & Nash album, and their fifth compilation, released by Rhino Records in 2005. It peaked at #24 on the Billboard 200, debuting at that position on April 2, 2005 with first week sales of 33,000 copies, and spending eight weeks on the chart. Its current sales sit at over 640,000.[3] The album was dedicated to Cass Elliot with great thanks to Neil Young.

Content

The title is somewhat of a misnomer since two of the band's nine Top 40 hits from the Billboard Hot 100, "Woodstock" and "Ohio," do not appear. Both of these tracks feature Neil Young; in fact Young does not appear on any track on this set, allowing it to authentically be considered specifically a "Crosby, Stills & Nash" collection. The selections derive from the group's first four studio albums, ignoring completely their last four of American Dream, Live It Up, After the Storm, and Looking Forward.
