GREATEST HITS, ETC

Greatest Hits, Etc. was the first compilation album of Paul Simon's solo career. It included two then-new songs, "Slip Slidin' Away" (a U.S. #5 hit) and "Stranded in a Limousine", as well as a previously unreleased live version of "American Tune". This album was Simon's final album for Columbia Records before signing with Warner Bros. Records.

"Stranded in a Limousine" was only available on this compilation until 2004, when it was included as a bonus track on a CD reissue of Simon's One Trick Pony album.

Currently, the album is out of print. Originally issued as an LP, the album was pressed for a short time in the 1980s in CD format by Columbia Records. The pressing of the CDs was stopped upon the release of Simon's compilation album Negotiations and Love Songs, which was designed to supersede this album. However, a few cuts, including "Stranded In A Limousine" and that of "American Tune" found here were not included on Negotiations.
