Led Zep 1

The Cars

Roxy Music -(Changed the Face of Glam Rock)

Honorable Mention - Was not Band's first album but was rushed by Record Company to rush out first album to make money.
Judas Preist - Sad Wings of Destiny (A turning point for Hard Rock into Heavy Metal or Metal) Actually scared me the first time I heard it in College!!!

Sorry I can't pick just One. May be more to come. Happy Listening.

Now if we just knew what that was. Is that a picture you took? The cover of the album that's your favourite? Something else?


My vote goes to Van Halen. There's nothing like hearing Eruption for the first time.

Van Halen - A Great Debut Album (Never heard anything like Eddie Van Halen)

Was lucky enough to see the Cars and Van Halen at their Prime in Concert about 1981. Both put on Great Shows.

Some more Greatest Debut Albums for Consideration:


Yes

ELP

Heart-Dreamboat Annie(Released First)

The guy won 5 Grammy's and had 4 Top 20 hit with this LP. It was one-hell-of-a debut album.

20 Great Debut albums in no particular order....

1. The Beatles - Please Please Me
2. The Velvet Underground - The Velvet Underground & Nico
3. Jimi Hendrix - Are You Experienced
4. Patti Smith - Horses
5. Jeff Buckley - Grace
6. Television - Marquee Moon
7. The Doors - The Doors
8. The Band - Music From Big Pink
9. The Ramones - The Ramones
10. The Clash - The Clash
11. The Sex Pistols - Nevermind The Bollocks
12. Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin
13. The Who - My Generation
14. King Crimson - In The Court Of The Crimson King
15. Nick Drake - Five Leaves Left
16. Elvis Costello - My Aim Is True
17. Joy Division - Unknown Pleasures
18. Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath
19. Frank Zappa - Freak Out
20. Pink Floyd - Piper At The Gates Of Dawn
from my perspective.......it's a tossup between.....

The VU & Nico / Are You Experienced / The Doors.........and I'd probably say The VU & Nico is the most important of the 3. All 3 are from 1967 coincidentally.
