Greatest Hits Live is a live album by the punk rock band the Ramones. It was recorded at The Academy in New York City on February 29, 1996. This was their last live performance in their hometown New York City.

The final two tracks are bonus studio tracks that are covers, neither of which appeared on a Ramones album previously. "R.A.M.O.N.E.S." is originally by Motörhead, from their album 1916, and the song was written as a tribute to the Ramones. The other is "Anyway You Want It", originally by The Dave Clark Five.
