Banjo & Sullivan: The Ultimate Collection is an album by Jesse Dayton and Lew Temple, recording as the fictional characters Banjo and Sullivan from Rob Zombie's 2005 American horror film The Devil's Rejects.

The album was conceived as a spin-off project inspired by on-set conversations between filmmaker Zombie and actor Lew Temple, who portrayed 'Adam Banjo' in the film.[2] Soon after, Temple's long-time friend, Jesse Dayton (an Austin, Texas-based alt-country musician and songwriter) was approached to helm the project as producer and bandleader with Temple and Dayton sharing songwriting credit.[3] The album is presented as a greatest hits compilation from the 1970s, contemporary with the film's setting.
