By 1964, Motown had accumulated enough British hits for EMI to release a greatest hits album, ''A Collection of Tamla Motown Big Hits''. Over the next few years, several more compilations were released, including six in the series ''16 Original Big Hits''. In 1967, the label issued the first of the ''Motown Chartbusters'' series. Although the series comprised mainly hit singles by various Motown artists, the albums also included other recordings that had not been hits in Britain and many significant single hits were excluded from the series.
