I thought about that one as well when I was making up my mind.  Though I prefer Doggystyle by the slightest of margins, I simply couldn't ignore The Chronic and its impact on music.  That record changed everything.

New Radicals (eponymous). Not only was it their first album, but also the last. Incredible stuff...
Godspeed you black emperor: F#A#

Unfortunately everything after August was somewhat down hill.  I still listen to this album regularly.

"PLEASE PLEASE ME"------ The Beatles

 

[Sordel]

In no particular order:
 
Portishead, Dummy
Tori Amos, Little Earthquakes
The Stone Roses
Rage Against The Machine
Phish, Junta
Kate Bush, The Kick Inside
Jeff Buckley, Grace
 
​Most already mentioned, but I think this may be the first mention of the Phish album, which certainly deserves consideration.

A lot of rockers here =) 
 
Of all the albums mentioned, I wonder which albums were most successful.

 

[kenammo]

Always been partial to this one.
 

 

[ReVision]

For me either Led Zeppelin I or Pearl Jam - Ten

 

[youngngray]

Maybe not one of the greatest debut's, but certainly the foreshadowing of the impact he was to have...
