I know already. There are greatest hits compilations of Toy Dolls songs, but they aren't always the same as my pick. I started listening to the Toy Dolls with Dig That Groove Baby in the early 80's. Along with the Dickies and the Ramones, these guys were in my favorite punk bands list. Hard to say, because I had so many I really liked including the Descendents, Agent Orange, Ribzy, Buzzcocks. Way too many. Anyway the first time I heard Spiders in the Dressing Room and Nellie the Elephant and then Olga, I Cannot, I knew they were a band for me to buy every album, every single. And I did. Since they weren't an American band, I had to buy imports to get them right away at first. Later, since they really had no hits, I still had to get the imports. Oh Well. I played them on my Surf Punk show and later on pretty much every show I did (except for the reggae show and the prog show). Saw them live whenever they came to town. They were fun, they were fast, These are my favorites from them through the years. I know they have others that are equally good. Sorry. You should buy all their albums anyway.
