The Hollies Greatest Hits is a compilation of singles by The Hollies, released on Epic Records in October 1973. It includes hit singles by the group on both the Epic and Imperial labels over a time span of 1965 to 1972. It spent seven weeks on the Billboard 200 charts, peaking at #156.

The group's work was initially released on Imperial Records in the United States, then a subsidiary of Liberty Records, until the latter merged with United Artists Records and the Imperial imprint was discontinued. The Hollies then signed with Epic in the U.S., and this compilation appeared six years after the group's previous, featuring hits for Epic as well as those from the Imperial period.

Since the group did not figure prominently on the American singles chart until late 1965, this compilation misses songs that had been big hits for the Hollies in the United Kingdom such as "Stay," "Here I Go Again," and "I'm Alive." The album consists of every Top 40 hit enjoyed by the band in the United States with the exception of the #40 hit "Jennifer Eccles" from 1968 and their cover of "Stop! In the Name of Love" from 1983. Nine of the tracks feature founding member Graham Nash during his tenure in the band through 1968. "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother," "Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress," and "Long Dark Road" were all released on Epic after his departure.
