The most important debut album in history

[studio150]

I'll nominate Blondie - Parallel Lines

Their third album after Blondie and Plastic Letters so not a debut album although their best selling album

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

Cafe Bleu - The Style Council

Mick Talbot gives birth to jazz. Paul Weller invents soul, funk and hip-hop.

Music has never been the same again.

 

[Ali_rrr]

The Strokes- Is This It has got to be up there, as it led to a whole new wave of music.
Oasis- Definitely Maybe is up there as it was such a great album. But The Strokes are higher for me.

My Life in the Bush of Ghosts - Brian Eno & David Byrne- A bit of a cheat as it was both the first and last album they recorded together!

 

[Hamilton]

 

[The Lemming Stomper]

 

[Prince Monolulu]

Cafe Bleu - The Style Council

This, although technically 2nd album after 'Introducing'

I see Jedward are about to release their 4th album......That's FOUR.....who buy's that shite. It really makes just question the mentality of some people.

Back on subject....One step beyond- Madness.

 

[ExmouthExile]

 

[Prince Monolulu]

Black Lace - Get Up and Dance

 

[Bring back Bryan wade!!]

Surfin' Safari - Beach Boys

 

[Cosmic Joker]

One of the greatest

What about ' Everything that happens will happen today ' released in 2008?

James Brown Sex Machine. Ok, not his first album but his first studio album, but in my opinion, the roots of the soul/ funk generation.
The Who My Generation. Broke the 60's " brit pop " stereo type of smart suited and booted bands.
The Jam All Mod Cons. Best band, best album, still love it as much as the first time I heard it. The foundations of my music taste.

Was 'In the City'

You are right, my apologises my first Jam Album and had it in mind it was the debut, but your correct In the City 1977 and all Mod Cons 1978, I shall blame age on my confusion.

 

[The Modfather]

Sex Pistols - Never mind the bollocks

Honourable mentions to The Specials and The Who sings my generation

Love All Mod Cons, though Setting Sons me fave!

 

[Frutos]

Appetite For Destruction

Right from the iconic opening riff of Welcome To The Jungle, it set GNR on their way to being one of the biggest bands on the planet.

My Bad. It was 27 years between the two which must be some kind of record in itself!
