"Greatest Hits" by TP & the HB's is certainly in the discussion. That, & KISS' "Double Platinum", of course.

Not saying it’s the best album, but Aldo Nova’s Portrait covers anything you would need by Aldo Nova.

Cmon. Whether you like them or not, you cant deny you've heard a hell of a lot more than 3 on the radio.
The Doors seems like the number one band that everyone just has the greatest hits of. That and Bob Marley.
Eagles prolly next.
Fleetwood mac, they just have Rumors, instead of a GH

The doors first record covers about 90% of all doors needs. I think there are 2 songs on there that aren't radio staples.
With Fleetwood Mac, you need the eponymous album AND Rumors.
Rhiannon, Over My Head, Say You Love Me and Landslide are all pretty essential.
