Greatest Hits is a compilation of songs by the American southern rock band Molly Hatchet. The collection was released in 1990. It was their last album released by Epic Records and features guitarist Bobby Ingram on the two newly recorded tracks after the departure of Dave Hlubek in 1987. The album also does not include anything from their latest album at the time Lightning Strikes Twice, which was released on Capitol Records. In 2001 Sony Music re-issued the album in an expanded edition with three tracks that weren't on the original 12-track collection, along with liner notes from Martin Popoff.[1]
