Lynn Anderson's Greatest Hits was a 1972 album Columbia Records released just two years after Anderson's debut on the level, released in the fall of 1972 to capitalize on the peak of Anderson's popularity and the Christmas shopping season. The release was certified Gold selling album, one of two during Anderson's career.

The eleven song collection features seven single releases by Anderson and four songs that had simply previously appeared as album cuts. The album boasted three number one Billboard country songs: "Rose Garden", "You're My Man", and "How Can I Unlove You". Three additional songs were top ten records for Anderson, "Stay There Til I Get There", "Cry", and "Listen to a Country Song". The seventh single release from the album "No Love at All" was a 1970 top 15 hit.

The four "filler" tracks were either written by Anderson or her husband-producer, Glenn Sutton. "Nothing Between Us" was a rare self-penned song from Anderson and had earlier appeared on her Rose Garden album as well as the flip side of the single release. "I'm Gonna Write A Song" (a chart record for Tommy Cash) was pulled from Anderson's You're My Man album and "Don't Say Things You Don't Mean" and "That's What Loving You Has Meant to Me" first appeared on Anderson's How Can I Unlove You album.

This album is not to be confused with Lynn Anderson's Greatest Hits Vol. One, a 1971 release from Chart Records after Anderson left that label.
