Best Album in the World...Ever!, Vol. 3 (1996)

About this title: The Best Album in the World Ever, Vol. 3 actually is pretty damn good, collecting tons of contemporary (read: '90s) British singles ranging from good to great over the course of two discs. Material from virtually every prominent Brit-pop band is included (Suede is the most notable exception), as well as a few relative oldies and some of the more pop-friendly electronica singles of the time. Like most of the other volumes in the series, it's a terrific evocation of the vibrancy of the Brit-pop scene during its heyday. Steve Huey, All Music Guide
