Meandering around compilations found that Wikipedia has a pretty comprehensive list of Garage Rock and Psychedelic Rock compilations. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_garage_rock_and_psychedelic_rock_compilati on_albums)

I thought there may be some memory lane titles here for some folks.

For some reason I got a bigger kick from the Moxie/Boulders comps rather than Pebbles. I really don't know why.

My copy of Nuggets occupied a very lonely space on the shelf for a few years, then the floodgates opened. I remember standing in Plastic Passion and being floored by the Acid Dreams comp when Bill first got it in. That's probably still my favourite. I think it was the first comp to define that crossover of punk and psychedelia.I could be wrong...
This still does it for me, Zippy Caplan giving it plenty on one of THE wigged out guitar solos.

An incredibly useful database of Garage and Psych comps.

Searchin' For Shakes (http://comps.soybomb.com/compsproject/intro.php)

Unfortunately it doesn't get updated anymore and it vanished altogether a while back until someone offered to re-host it.
