  • Quote
I'm planning to do a new custom chart of the best debut albums of all time. Now some are obvious;

Led Zeppelins 1st album or The Stones Roses 1st album. That's pretty straight forward but;

Is the 1st album by Crosby, Stills & Nash a debut? It's the 1st album by these guys together but they were all in very successful bands before getting together or Neil Young's 1st album? He made a number of albums with Buffalo Springfield before his 1st solo album.

Your thoughts would be appreciated as I'm a little in two minds about this.

I mean you could argue for Crosby Stills Nash, and it wouldn't be wrong exactly, but I'd be more interested in the first recorded appearance of a performer. Like how Pharoah Sanders - Tauhid is the debut recording with Sonny Sharrock.

Thanks Tap. That was my initial thinking but I happened to listen to the 1st CS&N album on the way into work this morning and it got me thinking. I think that I'm going to go with the 1st recorded appearance as you suggest and see how I go.

Thanks for taking the time to feedback

Thatโ€™s brilliant, thanks man. Iโ€™ve started putting my list together but yours is going to help so much in filling gaps. Really appreciate your input

I'd do both.

I do debut of the instance of the artist/group named as such. Sometimes I don't care though.
