Greatest Remix Hits is a series of remix albums by Australian recording artist Kylie Minogue. Vol. 3 peaked at number 67 on the ARIA albums chart while Vol. 4 peaked at number 66.[1]

Background and release[edit]

Volumes 1 and 2 were originally released exclusively in Japan during 1993. In 1998, these volumes were re-released with revised cover art by Mushroom Records in Australia.
