Essential Pebbles, Volume 3 is a compilation album in the Essential Pebbles series. Since the last album in the Pebbles series was released in 2007, this is likely to be the last volume in the Essential Pebbles series. Although the album is subtitled Still More Ultimate '66 garage classics!, not all of the recordings were originally released in 1966. The focus of this compilation is on European garage rock music, with most of the songs being from Swedish bands, along with Dutch and German bands being included.
Release data This album was released on AIP Records in 2000 as #AIP-1064.
Notes on the tracks Both CDs feature recordings from continental European bands, all or most of which had previously been featured in the Continent Lashes Back sub-series within the Pebbles series.
