Hits 93 Volume 3 is a 22-track compilation album which charted on 14th August 1993 and was released by Telstar Records in association with BMG. The release was subtitled "22 Hot Summer Hits".
The album was the third volume of four released in 1993 collecting the biggest hits of the year, much like the original The Hits Album collections which were originally issued between 1984 and 1991. BMG became involved in the series from 1986 onwards.
This is the first known UK compilation album to contain as many as 22 tracks on a single-CD compilation: a sticker attached to the case claimed this fact as twenty tracks was the standard amount of music featured on other compilations released around the same time. Furthermore, due to the compilers having full access to BMG material, hits by artists such as Take That, M People, Snap! and Lisa Stansfield appeared on this collection instead of the rival Now That's What I Call Music 25 which featured material licensed from EMI, Virgin and Polygram.
The compilation was successful, and reached #2 in the UK Top 20 Compilation chart. It went on to gain a Gold BPI Award for units of over 400,000.
