Working Holiday! is a compilation album released on the Simple Machines label in 1994. It is a collection of tracks by American indie bands which were originally released on a series of 12 7" singles by Simple Machines as part of the Working Holiday monthly record club starting from December 1992. Each song was intended to commemorate a holiday in the month it was released. Subscribers to the record club were also sent a calendar showing the holidays, and a specially made 7" single carrying box.

A limited edition of the Working Holiday! album contained a second disc of live performances from a three-day live music festival held in January 1994 at The Black Cat in Washington D.C. to celebrate the completion of the Working Holiday series. The 20-page CD booklet issued with all editions of the album contains a detailed and illustrated account of the record club project and the live music festival.

Disc 1 - 7"s on Holiday!

Disc 2 - Live tracks from the Working Holiday Weekend with MC Jason Noble

Artwork by Archer Prewitt. Disc 2 recorded January 7, 8, 9 1994 at The Black Cat by Bob Weston, Geoff Turner and Charles Bennington.
