Toyah! Toyah! Toyah! (sometimes known as Toyah! Toyah! Toyah! All The Hits by including the cover slogan to differentiate it from the earlier live album Toyah! Toyah! Toyah!) is a compilation of tracks by Toyah, mostly from singles and EPs. One track, "Sphinx", was previously only available as a flexidisc included with issue nº 8 of Flexipop magazine.

It was the band's first compilation album to date and covered material from the Sheep Farming In Barnet era through to 1983's Love Is The Law. A companion VHS videocassette was also released containing four music videos and a live performance.
