Post by Edre Depeche Head »

Have no idea if this has been done before but I want to do favorite debut albums of all time poll. If it has been done before, I am fine without doing it. I will set the deadline for one month from now, AUGUST 17.

I got two questions:
1. With Bjork, does Debut count as her actual debut or is it her 1977 album she sang as a child since that project existed? 🤔
2. With Liz Phair, although Exile In Guyville is considered her debut album and GirlySound is a bootleg, does GirlySound count as an actual debut project of the artist? I mean it materialise on cassettes 2 years before Guyville existed and has enough set of songs to make up a triple album's worth, which keeps making me wonder if GirlySound counts an album 🤔

Personally, in the Bjork situation, I think Debut would count but by technicality, so would the 1977 albun. Debut is made with the intent of being her artistic debut. With Liz Phair if it was circulating before release, I wouldnt mind counting it

Reign in Blood was Slayer's third studio album. Thanks to FrankLotion, I remembered Pixies' Surfer Rosa, which I've put at #69.

Whoops, I literally just copy/pasted my All-Time list and then deleted the albums that weren’t debuts, I guess Reign in Blood must’ve slipped in.

I added Texas Flood to the bottom of my list instead.

There are still eligibility questions.

1. How about solo debuts by former band members: Sting, George Michael, Beyoncé etc. Even Tori Amos released an album as a member of Y Kant Tori Read before her solo debut.

2. How about artists who released an EP before their first album, like Janelle Monae? How about Lady Gaga and Ava Max, who released an obscure EP under a different name?

Even if we didn't count the 1977 album (after all, she was a child then and probably not fully involved in artistic decisions) she has an album only released in Iceland in 1990 ("Gling-Gló").

Edre Peraza has the last word on this but I guess both cases are allowed...

A quick list (the debut albums appearing on my Top 250 albums list). I had three cases of one off duos, I've left out "Getz/Gilberto" because both artist had previous debut albums but I've included "My Life in the Bush of Ghosts" and "Bird and Diz" because they were the debut solo albums of half of the duos involved (David Byrne and Dizzy Gillespie).

3. LEONARD COHEN "Songs of Leonard Cohen" (1967)
4. AZTEC CAMERA "High Land Hard Rain" (1983)
5. THE CLASH "The Clash" (1977)
6. SEX PISTOLS "Never Mind the Bollocks Here's the Sex Pistols" (1977)
7. DE LA SOUL "3 Feet High and Rising" (1989)
8. PORTISHEAD "Dummy" (1994)
9. LAURYN HILL "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill" (1998)
10. THE STROKES "Is This It" (2001)

I basically went by the first album under a certain billing. Tori Amos sneaks in with Little Earthquakes that way, though I'm not sure she should...

1. How about solo debuts by former band members: Sting, George Michael, Beyoncé etc. Even Tori Amos released an album as a member of Y Kant Tori Read before her solo debut.

2. How about artists who released an EP before their first album, like Janelle Monae? How about Lady Gaga and Ava Max, who released an obscure EP under a different name?
Personally I didn't include The Smile's latest album for that reason because it Thom and Jonny are the main creative force behind Radiohead but EOB's album might count because it is also a major songwriting debut as well.

I would say solo debuts make sense if the artist in question wasn't the main creative force behind the previous project. I didn't include Ghosts of the Great Highway by Sun Kil Moon because Mark was the main writer and voice of Red House Painters.

As for the EP question, if the EP is long enough and has enough tracks to be comparable with the debut Studio Album there is an argument to be made but since everyone is familiar with Radiohead I will use them as an example again. To me Pablo Honey is their debut even if Drill EP is by technicality because it is a minor release in their catalog. But Minor Threat's 7' Inches may counter that take.

Hey guys! I am keeping the deadline but I just want you guys to know I am not quite sure when I will be able to calculate the results sine I am starting my college classes soon and my band is going on a small midwestern tour. If anyone wants to volunteer to help out and speed up the process it would be appreciated, if not it may just take a bit longer. Thanks for participating!

Not of This Earth is Joe Satriani's first album. Look Sharp! is Joe Jackson's first. Neil Young's first is self-titled. (Not a comprehensive review)

@Henry: there's still a lot of albums on your list that ain't debuts. Muse for example, but also plenty jazz artists like Coltrane, Davis, Jarrett, Brubeck etc.

@Jackson: Liquid Swords isn't the debut of GZA.

Hey guys! I hate to admit but I do feel like I bit off more than I could chew with this one. If anyone has preset spreadsheets for this poll it would be very helpful. My college classes are starting this week and my band has been recording when we arent at our part time jobs. Help would be much appreciated!

I am very glad to see such great turnout!
