The Greatest Hits

~ Release by Salt ’n’ Pepa (see all versions of this release, 3 available)

Annotation

Note that there are two very similar covers - same artwork, but one says "including: Let's Talk About Sex...", the other says "including: Push It...". The UK release is the former; not sure where the latter appears.
