Greatest Hits Volume One (Toby Keith album)

Greatest Hits Volume One is the first compilation album by American country music artist Toby Keith. It was released on October 20, 1998, by Mercury Records and was his final album for the label, where he had been from the start of his career in 1993 to 1998. It features singles from his first four studio albums, as well as the newly recorded tracks "Getcha Some", and "If a Man Answers". Both of these tracks were released as singles, in 1998 and 1999, respectively. While "Getcha Some" peaked at #18 on the Hot Country Songs charts, "If a Man Answers" reached #44 on the same chart, becoming the first single of Keith's career to miss the Top 40. It was Keith's only compilation album not to feature singles in chronological order until the release of Greatest Hits: The Show Dog Years in 2019.
