The Columbia Albums Collectiön Sampler is a compilation by Blue Öyster Cult, released in 2012 as a promotional sampler for retailers. It contains a selection of tracks from throughout The Columbia Albums Collectiön, including both studio album hits and live performances from various points in their career. The final track, a live cover of The Who's "Substitute", was not featured in The Columbia Albums Collectiön; as a result, this is the song's only official release.
