Greatest Hits 1982–1989 is the third greatest hits album, and twentieth album overall, by the American band Chicago, released by Full Moon/Reprise Records on November 21, 1989.[1] Spanning from Chicago 16 in 1982 to Chicago 19 in 1988, the set includes founding vocalist Peter Cetera and his successor Jason Scheff. It includes a remix of "What Kind of Man Would I Be?", as well as also being Chicago's last release before the dismissal of its original drummer Danny Seraphine in the following year after its release.

A variation titled The Heart of... Chicago was issued in countries outside North America, with similar artwork but a different track list including four songs originally released on the Columbia record label.

Unlike the two previous Greatest Hits releases, all of the songs were released in their album lengths, except "What Kind of Man Would I Be?". Some US copies on vinyl, and possibly CD copies as well, list "Along Comes a Woman" but actually contain "Remember the Feeling" (originally the flipside of "Hard Habit to Break").
