Best Debut Albums
by conallmalone 
Include Collectives (Yes / No / Maybe)
Only One album excluded (Yes / No / Maybe)
Line Up Changes (Yes / No / Maybe)
Work in progress, debut albums leads to too much confusion :D so gotta leave out classics:
Ready To Die
Never Mind The Bollocks
Grace
Blind Faith
Audioslave
Above
Paul Simon
Wu Tang Solo Records
No Ice Cube or Dre
No Lou Reed or Iggy
No AC/DC confusing first release etc
No Kick Out The Jams or Janes Addiction as Live album
Debating whether to make it at least 4 albums (while alive) the band to have but means I would lose Hendrix, N.W.A., Television etc
Order is a bit messed up too
