Best O' Boingo is the second greatest hits album from American new wave band Oingo Boingo. It features songs recorded during the band's MCA years, from 1984's So-Lo through 1990's Dark at the End of the Tunnel. As such, the songs from the period when the band was on IRS records -- as well as several others -- are represented here by their re-recorded versions from the 1988 "live in the studio" album Boingo Alive.
