The Best Of ABBA is a compilation greatest hits album by Swedish pop group ABBA, released in November 1975 in Australia and New Zealand only. Globally ABBA released ABBA - Greatest Hits, but in Australasia, this album was released instead. The album topped the charts in both countries, and went on to go 34x Platinum in New Zealand, making it one of the biggest selling albums in that country. In Australia it spent 16 weeks at #1, and in New Zealand 18 weeks #1. In both countries, this album charted better than all the other ABBA releases.

The Best Of ABBA was re-released in 1988 on vinyl and CD, but was only available for a short time.
