Tales from the Dark Side Greatest Hits and Classic Collectables 1974–1997 is a compilation album by rock music group, Dragon, released in August 1998.

Adrian Zupp from AllMusic said "Tales from the Dark Side: Greatest Hits and Choice Collectables 1974-1997 is really the ultimate Dragon compilation.

Go back to the band's trippy beginnings and hear the Pink Floyd-meets-Santana vibe of the lengthy "Universal Radio," or the amazing cassette-player-recorded sound check of the band jamming on The Doors' "Soul Kitchen," with singer Marc Hunter ad-libbing new lyrics (here called "Final Years").

Apart from such alluring curiosities, the high points include the glossy pop/rock of "Shooting Stars", the disco boogie of "O Zambezi", and "The Empty Beach," which was penned by Cold Chisel keyboard player Don Walker."

There's the funky "Blacktown Boogie" (an ode to one of the toughest, rock & roll-loving suburbs of Sydney's notorious west side), an excellent cover of the Velvet Underground/Lou Reed classic "White Light/White Heat" and a deuce of Dragon's second-echelon songs: the high-energy "Dreaded Moroxy Bind."
