About The Record:

Kenny Rogers' Greatest Hits reached No. 1 on both the Pop and Country charts and featured three singles that were not included on any of Rogers' studio albums - these being Lady (written and produced specifically for Rogers by Lionel Richie, which was a No. 1 hit single in the same year), Love The World Away (a top five country and top 20 pop hit that was featured on the soundtrack of the box-office smash Urban Cowboy) and Long Arm of the Law (a lesser known, but still relatively popular song among Rogers' loyal fan base). The album features nine hit singles from Rogers' career. The album was a huge success and confirmed Rogers' status as one of the world's biggest stars, it went on to sell more than 22 million copies worldwide. In country music today it remains the best selling compilation release of all-time.
