[Music] Greatest debut single

[Seagull58]

To be strictly accurate, this was their debut single

You're right. I withdraw my nomination of the Pistols. I bought New Rose and saw the Damned many more times than the Pistols. That whole first album was amazing. Apparently, it was recorded live and Stiff had plied them with beer and cider beforehand, so it was much rawer than the Pistols would be getting on EMIiiiii. And crucially, being on a small label, quicker to release.

A great tune but that wasn’t their debut single - Indian Rope was

Err, I was going to suggest Killing An Arab? Love the guitar playing on it.

Killing an Arab was their debut single as per the thread title.

 

[The Fits]

Obviously not the greatest single, but at a time when I wasn't much of a fan of the whole britpop stuff, this blew me away the morning it was shown on Big Breakfast.

This still absolutely slaps...

Bingo Master's Break out is strictly an EP.

This is a single. And it is f***ing brilliant.

Edit. The end part is glorious.

 

[Crispy Ambulance]

Wow! Those first 3 were fantastic. Especially the short, simple intro to Grip and then all hell breaking loose!

I think you've missed a bit of the thread title H

Greatest debut single

There are many greatest singles.

I am being quite selective here. I am not posting anything that is simply great.

It would have been if I hadn't put B*Witched up first.

How can this be overlooked. Saw the original line up at the original Roundhouse.
