Compilation album
Collected songs disc
A compilation album gathers previously released tracks, often from multiple artists or from one artist's back catalog, onto a single album.
These collections serve various purposes: greatest hits packages showcase an artist's most successful songs, while themed compilations group tracks by genre, era, or mood.
I bought a compilation album of 80s one-hit wonders.
Record labels often release compilations to fulfill contract obligations or capitalize on existing recordings without funding new material.
