Big Country: The Crossing.

Surprised no ones has mentioned the best ever!

Led Zeppelin 1 - of course !

Rattus Norvegicus.....The Stranglers

Edgar Winter Group - "They Only Come Out at Night "

funeral arcade fire by a country mile

The Crossing was a very strong debut I agree.
They never quite reached that consistency again.

In ntheory a band's debut should be its best album because they have their whole pre-signing career to write a strong set.

Pronounced... - Lynyrd Skynyrd
Look Sharp - Joe Jackson
The Crossing - Big Country
Na Pooh: The Art Of Bluff - Wah!
The Undertones - The Undertones
Queen 1

and deffo The Stone Roses as someone has already mentioned

The Only Ones
And Dido wasn´t bad either.

Fine Young Cannibals - Fine Young Cannibals

Patti Smith - Horses

Lauryn Hill - Miseducation Of..

Jeff Buckley - Grace

The Velvet Underground & Nico. Cannot be more influential than that. When I was a punk kid it was like a myth.

Is this it - Strokes

the doors by er the doors

Manc man is correct.

talking about the doors i was listening to two great tracks of theirs on youtube last night, hyacinth house and take it as it comes.

i could also have had rage against the machines eponymous album as well...

fking superb

I agree with whoever said Nas. Illmatic is one of the greatest ever hip-hop albums.

S ex pistols , never mind the bo llocks ,
The Police, Outlandos A`mor

Completely forgot

THE SCREAM - Siouxsie Sioux & The Banshees

Facts is right - Led Zep I

Talk about announcing your arrival on the scene with a right rollicking opening number - Good Times Bad Times.

The Hardline According to Terence Trent D'Arby wasn't a bad effort either.

just thought of another cracker.....

Love 'im or loathe 'im, Meatloafs 'Bat Out Of Hell' was awesome.

Also:-
The Cars eponymous album was magic, as was
New Clear Days by The Vapors and
London 0 Hull 4 by The Housemartins

and UB40's debut!

some debut albums I liked and then gone on to buy every album since by that band:
Starsailor - Love is Here
Turin Brakes - The Optimist LP
Ride - Nowhere
We've Got a Fuzzbox and We're Gonna Use It - Bostin' Steve Austin
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - BRMC
The Datsuns - The Datsuns
St Etienne - Foxbase Alpha
Spiritualized - Lazer guided melodies

Velvet Underground and Nico has to be the best, not far behind for me would be...

leonard cohen - the songs of... A perfect album full of perfect images...

"I lit a thin green candle, to make you jealous of me.
But the room just filled up with mosquitos,
they heard that my body was free.
Then I took the dust of a long sleepless night
and I put it in your little shoe.
And then I confess that I tortured the dress
that you wore for the world to look through."

and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah - Clap Your Hands Say Yeah...massively underrated album imo...probably my favourite of the decade.

Is this It - The Strokes for me

Viva dixie..............by Sparklehorse , best debut by an American band.

trapped and unwrapped- friends again
cake- trash can sinatras
walk across the rooftops - blue nile

It's only just happened, Beneath the Veiled Embrace by Pythia. New London band on a little indie label but they'll be huge. Got Brian Blessed on one track too!!

Definitely Maybe

Definitely maybe and that is a fact

Boy - U2
Word Gets Around - Stereophonics
