''The Hits Album'' is a compilation album released by BMG, CBS and WEA in December 1988 and is the ninth volume of the long-running ''Hits'' compilation series. It charted on December 17. Unusually, this ''Hits'' album was released without the chronological '9' anywhere on the album's artwork or advertising and this could be considered a re-launch of the four-year-old series. The compilation is, however, listed as ''The Hits Album 9'' in ''The Complete Book of the British Charts'' and other chart statistic publications due to the catalogue number 'CDHITS9'. The absence of a volume issue number and the radically different relaunched cover artwork affected sales and the album stalled at #5 in the UK Top 100 Album chart. On January 14, 1989, compilation albums were excluded from the main chart and ''Hits 9'' transferred to the new Compilation Top 20 for the rest of its run, peaking at #4. It is also known as ''The Hits Album 9'' to avoid confusion with two other albums simply titled ''The Hits Album'' (the 1st and 14th editions of the series). ''Hits 9'' features two songs which reached number one on the UK Singles Chart: "Orinoco Flow" and "One Moment in Time". == Track listing == CD/Record/Tape 1 1. Bros: "Cat Among The Pigeons" 2.
