The Walker Brothers' Story is a compilation album by the American pop group The Walker Brothers. It was released in soon after the group's dissolution in mid-1967 and reached number nine on the UK Albums Chart.[1]

Unusually for a greatest hits compilation, the album does not include all of the group's major hits. The group's breakthrough single "Love Her" is notably absent. The UK and German editions of the album have differing track listings.
