A Bunch of Stiff Records is also known as A Bunch of Stiffs.

This is a compilation of the first ten Stiff Records singles. The album did not enter the UK charts, but it did did turn out to have some of the most important record artists of the 1970s and 1980s.

Graham Parker's track (No 6 and the final track on side 1 of the LP) was not listed on the original release. Probably due to his then current contract with Phonogram, for whose Vertigo label he and The Rumour had already released two LPs.
