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

That’s brilliant, thanks man. I’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.
