Greatest is a 2005 compilation album by Raspberries. The album contains 20 songs, 4 to 6 from each of the group's four albums. Most of the songs on Greatest had been included on previous Raspberries' compilation albums, but the songs on Greatest were remastered using 24-bit technology, and the album included liner notes quoting three members of the band – Eric Carmen, Wally Bryson and Jim Bonfanti discussing each song.[1]
Allmusic critic Mark Deming summed up his review of Greatest saying that it "is an excellent one-stop shopping place for your Raspberries needs. You may not need this to replace any of the previous greatest-hits sets, but anyone looking for a great introduction to this great band can buy this with confidence."[1] News-Press critic Mark Marymont called it "a respectful retrospective of a band that should have been bigger."[2]
