The Shirley Bassey Singles Album is a compilation album released in 1975 by British singer Shirley Bassey.
Having seen a sales dip in the latter half of the 1960s, Shirley Bassey enjoyed a successful comeback in the 1970s, beginning with the single and album hits, "Something". This continued over the next few years with several high-selling albums and in 1975, her record label United Artists, released a collection of songs taken from this period, plus "Big Spender" and "If You Go Away" (which were featured on a 1960s album that had been re-released and a hit in 1971).The Shirley Bassey Singles Album was an immediate hit, going gold a month after its release, and peaking at No.2 in the UK - her highest charting album - during a 24-week run. The album included the top 10 singles "Something", "For All We Know" and "Never Never Never" as well as featuring the hits "Fool on the Hill" and "Diamonds are Forever", which had not featured on any of her albums up to this point.
This album was first released on CD in 1988 with bonus tracks and retitled as Shirley Bassey The Singles.
