Pebbles series
The Pebbles series is an extensive group of compilation albums in both LP and CD formats that have been issued on several record labels, though mostly by AIP Records. Together with the companion Highs in the Mid-Sixties series, the Pebbles series has made available over 800 obscure, mostly American "Original Punk Rock" songs recorded in the mid-1960's — primarily known today as the garage rock and psychedelic rock genres — that were previously known only to a handful of collectors. The name "Pebbles" is a diminutive of the name of the seminal album of similar music; since in almost all cases, the recordings compiled on these albums were, at best, regional hits with little or no national exposure. By contrast, several of the bands presented on the original Nuggets compilation had one or more national hit songs, such as the Seeds, Blues Magoos, Electric Prunes, the Standells, Count Five and others. Following on the heels of the success of the Pebbles series, dozens of other series of garage rock compilation albums have been started, with numerous albums being released each year for several decades.
