The Best of Helen Reddy is a compilation album by Australian-American pop singer Helen Reddy that was released in 1991 by EMI Music Group and focuses exclusively on her first seven LPs. The 20 songs selected are evenly balanced between chart hits such as "I Am Woman", "Delta Dawn", and "Angie Baby", and lesser-known album tracks, including "Summer of '71" and "Tulsa Turnaround".

Reception

Allmusic's Bruce Eder notes that this compilation, "has the virtue of a very low list price (especially as a 20-song disc) and good sound -- plus the presence of one song that Reddy isn't much known for doing, but which she did extremely well, 'How Can I Be Sure,' cut on her (largely ignored) very first LP."
