"Knock on Wood - The Best of Amii Stewart" is a compilation album of recordings by Amii Stewart released in 1996. The compilation mainly covers material from her early disco career and albums "Knock On Wood" and "Paradise Bird", both from 1979. This compilation was one of the first to use the original versions of Amii Stewart's hits instead of the 1985 remixes from album "The Hits", with one exception - the duet "My Guy"/"My Girl" which originally was recorded with Johnny Bristol. "Knock on Wood - The Best of Amii Stewart" also contains two tracks from 1981's "Images"/"I'm Gonna Get Your Love" and finishes with 1985's European hit single "Friends".
