Pumpkin, Powder, Scarlet & Green is the third album by the 1960s pop group The American Breed, released in 1968. The album was not as successful as their first two efforts, but the album did manage to have three modest hit singles: "Cool It (We're Not Alone)", "Ready, Willing and Able" (#84), and a cover version of the Troggs' "Anyway That You Want Me" (#88). This album marked a beginning in decline of the group's popularity.
