Do the Stanley is a compilation album of songs by the British group Stackridge. It was released in the U.K. by MCA Records after their break-up in 1976. The album contains some of the most popular tracks from their first three albums as well as songs from singles. The last song on the album "Let There Be Lids" was previously unreleased. The album is no longer available, but all of the songs have since been re-issued on other Stackridge CDs. Most of these songs are included on the 2006 collection Purple Spaceships Over Yatton: The Best of Stackridge.
