"Alice Cooper's Greatest Hits" is a greatest hits album by Alice Cooper, released in 1974. It features the hit singles and some b-sides of songs from their third album ("Love It to Death") to the last album with the band's original lineup ("Muscle of Love").

This compilation's song versions were remixed by Jack Richardson at the time, with the remix of "I'm Eighteen" being released as a single in the US. The reason behind remixing the songs was perhaps to boost its appeal as "new" versions, due to the fact that no new tracks were available for inclusion by the group as they were on hiatus at the time.

This compilation was expanded upon when, in 2001, Rhino released "", which includes the original Single versions of the songs in addition to a number of Cooper's post-1974 hits as a solo artist, filling up the entire CD.
