List of Garage Rock and Psychedelic Rock Compilation Albums - Criteria For Inclusion On This List

Criteria For Inclusion On This List

Some of these albums and series have a more eclectic group of songs than these two genres—the Born Bad series, for instance, includes numerous rockabilly rarities, novelty songs and instrumental rock recordings, with several being releases from the 1950s—but fit as well into this category as any other. In a few cases, such as the Rough Diamonds series, the series itself is compilation in nature, although the individual albums are by specific artists. Some of the albums are released in series but with significantly different names—e.g., Rave with the Amphetamine Generation and Riot of the Amphetamine Generation—so these albums are listed individually rather than trying to create a series name.

Generally speaking, the list does not include compilation albums of punk rock (as the term is generally utilized today), pop music and surf music. Compilation albums covering music from the late 1970s and later (even if the music is clearly garage rock or psychedelic rock) have also been omitted, as typified by the third Nuggets box-set, Children of Nuggets: Original Artyfacts from the Second Psychedelic Era, 1976–1995. Exceptions are compilations such as Rockabilly Psychosis and Garage Disease, which include some older tracks as well as newer releases.

Famous quotes containing the words criteria, inclusion and/or list:

    The Hacker Ethic: Access to computers—and anything which might teach you something about the way the world works—should be unlimited and total.
    Always yield to the Hands-On Imperative!
    All information should be free.
    Mistrust authority—promote decentralization.
    Hackers should be judged by their hacking, not bogus criteria such as degrees, age, race, or position.
    You can create art and beauty on a computer.
    Computers can change your life for the better.
    Steven Levy, U.S. writer. Hackers, ch. 2, “The Hacker Ethic,” pp. 27-33, Anchor Press, Doubleday (1984)

    Belonging to a group can provide the child with a variety of resources that an individual friendship often cannot—a sense of collective participation, experience with organizational roles, and group support in the enterprise of growing up. Groups also pose for the child some of the most acute problems of social life—of inclusion and exclusion, conformity and independence.
    Zick Rubin (20th century)

    We saw the machinery where murderers are now executed. Seven have been executed. The plan is better than the old one. It is quietly done. Only a few, at the most about thirty or forty, can witness [an execution]. It excites nobody outside of the list permitted to attend. I think the time for capital punishment has passed. I would abolish it. But while it lasts this is the best mode.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
