The Kingsmen Greatest Hits is the seventh album by American rock band The Kingsmen, released in 1966.
The Kingsmen's seventh album completed their career arc in the 1960s with a compilation of previous releases including all eight of their Billboard Hot 100 singles. One new song, "Don't Say No" (released as a single in 1967), was also included. The album did not make the Billboard LP chart. [1]
Both mono (WDM 681) and stereo (WDS 681) versions were released. International releases included Canada (Wand 681) and United Kingdom (Marble Arch MAL829, different cover, only ten tracks). The LP was also released in Germany in 1973 (Metronome 200 104, different cover). The album has not been reissued on CD.
The group described the album cover as a "licorice pizza".[2]
