What are your favorite debut albums?

Boston - Boston

Byrds - Mr. Tamborine Man

Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin I

Jimi Hendrix - Are you Experienced?

Queen - Queen 1

Van Halen - Van Halen

The Doors - The Doors

[cosmosis]

Probably Pink Floyd.

The Doors is good too. I especially love Soul Kitchen, Alabama Song and The End. That dude was seriously obsessed with death.

Edit: And let's not forget about Crystal Ship. That album has continuously made me reach for the pipe for years. I like The Piper more, but I have over-played it way too much.

I know this'll sound crazy but one of my favorite albums of all time is the debut by Crabby Appleton. Every song is excellent. Fine writers were they.

[MuzikTyme]

Black Sabbath

Aerosmith

Rush

Montrose

Lynyrd Skynyrd

Audioslave

Too many to list. It's like trying to pick the cutest kitten in a basket or eating just one Lays potato chip.

Urge Overkill's big-label debut was "Saturation". I absolutely love that album. They had a couple of shabbily produced before that which are still in existence, and a couple shabbily produced afterwards, but "Saturation" is a classic.
