Just within the last few years I was able to find a few of their Cd's.One is called The Sham 69 Punk Collection.Which has every hit that you can imagine by them on it.I also found a live one by them too.And not very long ago I found their most commona nd most poular album that I never thought was even released onto which is "Hersham Boys" which I have had for years on album.Great album by far for sure.Now tell me what is a Hersham Boy supposed to be? I have always wondered what that means.

Are there any other Sham 69 fans in here? And if so can you please list what your favorite albums and songs are by them? Thanks.Here are my favorite picks of their hits.I haven't listened to any of their cd's recently so the non hits I won't be able to list.I am going by memory on their hits alone as it is.

Angels With Dirty Faces
If The Kids Are United
Hersham Boys
Hurray Up Harry
Mister You're A Better Man Than I

I'm not all that familiar with their repertoire but I have heard "No Entry", "If the Kids Are United" and "Borstal Breakout" and they are top-notch punk songs. That's what I liked about the first-generation English punk bands, they were loud, raucous, so
