The Punk Singles Collection 1977–80 is a compilation album by Sham 69. It was originally released by Cleopatra in 1998. It features all of the singles, with their b-sides (except live tracks), released by the band from their start to their first break-up. It was re-released in 2006 by Captain Oi!, this time featuring the four missing live b-sides.
When this album was released, many of the songs made their CD debut. However, all of the tracks were later featured on re-releases of the band's first four albums.
