Hollies' Greatest is the only number one album in the UK for the British band The Hollies. It was released after Graham Nash's departure from the Hollies and was intended to include all of their British hit singles with Nash. Only 3 of the 14 songs on the album -- "Stay", "I Can't Let Go" and "Stop! Stop! Stop!"—had previously been released on U.K. albums.

It spent seven weeks at the top of the chart in 1968.[1][2]
