List of garage rock compilation albums explained

This is a list of compilation albums featuring recordings entirely or mostly in the garage rock style of music, including variations of the genre ranging from basic garage rock and frat rock to folk rock-influenced and psychedelic garage rock. Most of the recordings compiled on these albums was originally recorded in the period between 1963-1968 in the United States and Canada. The list also includes compilations of recordings made outside of North America, in places such as Great Britain, Continental Europe, Latin America, and the far East, which are sometimes mentioned as variants of the garage rock style (and are sometimes referred to as "Freakbeat," "Nederbeat", or "Group Sounds," as well as "beat", etc.).

When known, the city, state, country or region of origin of is given in parentheses. "US" covers the United States of America, while "UK" covers all parts of the United Kingdom (England, Northern Ireland, Wales, etc.). "Mixed" means that the music comes from many parts of the world even if individual volumes within a series concentrate on a particular country or region. The list also contains sections devoted to later garage rock subgenres. The Nuggets and Pebbles albums were the pioneering series, so they are listed first, followed by the remainder in alphabetical order.
