Great list . I have many of these! I would have added Queen I though! :)
As you say, Larry, a pretty fair list. The Steely Dan album is my favourite on the list. Being objective, the King Crimson album is perhaps the most important one as it paved the way for prog rock. The same could be said of the Black Sabbath album and heavy metal.
This list needs to have;
Marquee Moon-Television
Pink Flag-Wire
Blue Oyster Cult
Safe as Milk-Captain Beefheart
John Prine
Here Come the Warm Jets-Brian Eno
Chicago's first album is an amazing debut that should've made the list. Great album.
Agreed!
Oh,Yeah!! Well, It Is Rolling Stone! Enough Said.
This is one of the better lists with Velvet Underground 🚇 , Pink Floyd , Pretenders , Cars , Peter Gabriel , Doors , REM , Van Halen , Clash & Sex Pistols. ✅️
It's a good list
Two glaring omissions:
1. DEVO: Q: Are We Not Men?
2. Joy Division: Unknown Pleasures
Larry does not like joy division.
@@johnnycashlives316 Nothing wrong with that. He asked what we thought should have been included.
boston a true classic rock album. any one lived in the 70s would know.
Oh, yeah, and no surprise it didn't make the list, but I'd have put Frank Zappa and the Mothers' "Freak Out" on the list.
Here’s a few I would add:
David Crosby’s If I Could Only Remember My Name
America (Horse with No Name)
David Gilmour’s debut
Mike Oldfield’s Tubular Bells
The Jefferson Airplane Takes Off
Eagles’ debut
Emerson Lake & Palmer debut
McCartney I
Richard & Linda Thompson’s I Want to See the Bright Lights Tonight
Rick Wakeman’s The Six Wives of Henry VIII
Alan Parsons Project’s Tales of Mystery and Imagination
Stealers Wheel debut
Sting’s Dream of the Blue Turtles
Kate Bush’s The Kick Inside
Marillion’s Script for a Jester’s Tear
Tracey Chapman’s debut
Stephen Stills’ debut
Seal’s debut
Traffic’s Mr. Fantasy
Chicago Transit Authority
JJ Cale’s Naturally
Cream’s Fresh Cream
Derek and the Domino’s Layla
Eric Clapton’s debut (with After Midnight)
Blind Faith (I know I’m cheating with Clapton)
I kind of understand why John Lennon and George Harrison's albums on this list are not their actual debut albums, but in my opinion, that's a cheat - it's like, "Well, they're Beatles, so we won't count the non-rock albums in their discography; their debut isn't until they did a pop record." I doubt very much if a lesser-known artist would get that "courtesy" and I also doubt that Harrison and Lennon would appreciate their first two solo records were discounted. I could be wrong about Lennon (but I don't think so) and I'd bet the dog and lot that George Harrison would appreciate it.
The Stranglers - Rattus Norvegicus & Television - Marquee Moon are two of my top 20 favourite albums of all time and they should've been included here. Other favourite debuts that didn't make this list:
Nils Lofgren - Nils Lofgren
Rory Gallagher - Rory Gallagher
Pearl Jam - Ten
Eels - Beautiful Freak
Echo & The Bunnymen - Crocodiles
Kings Of Leon - Youth & Young Manhood
Pixies - Surfer Rosa
Magazine - Real Life
Here are 10 debut albums (Rock, Punk, New Wave) i have in my collection and i really love:
- Meat Loaf: Bat Out Of Hell
- Boston: Boston
- Foreigner: Foreigner
- Sex Pistols: Never Mind The Bollocks Here's The Sex Pistols
- The Stranglers: Rattus Norvegicus
- No Dice: No Dice
- Tom Robinson Band: Power In The Darkness
- Nina Hagen: Nina Hagen Band
- The Knack: Get The Knack
- The Black Crowes: Shake Your Money Maker
I don't think the list contained anything more recent than the '80s, so it left out the major debut albums from Pearl Jam, Oasis, and Rage Against the Machine. Also missing were the debuts from The Who, Boston, The Smiths, and The Stone Roses. Three other debuts that I love are those from Graham Parker, Marshall Crenshaw, and Aztec Camera, but I understand that those albums aren't very well-known, so I didn't expect to see them on the list.
I would add:
Ten - Pearl Jam
Zenyattà Mondatta - The Police
Freak Out - The Mothers of Invention
The Greatful Dead - The Greatful Dead
Harmonium - Harmonium
In addition to the albums mentioned by others, this list also omitted Blue Oyster Cult's debut, Pat Benatar's debut, Santana's debut...there are probably a lot more but this will do for now.
Nice shout out to Sparks. It’s a shame they were mostly ignored on this side of the Atlantic.
I admire your honesty. For this list, I mostly agree with these choices but I would have deleted enough of these to include STP's "Core", Sponge's "Rotting Pinata", Jennifer Trynin's "Cockamamie", Pet Shop Boy's "Please", Dig's "Wasteland", Aerosmith's first, Firebird's first, Blue Oyster Cult's first, Angel's first, U-2's first (Boy), Esthero's "Breath From Another" and I must be the only person on the planet who still loves to hear Deep Purple's first, "Shades Of". My criteria is simply what I still like to hear in it's entirety. I have perhaps 35 of the 40 albums on the list, and for my tastes, many have not aged well. It seems to me that many on these lists are noted because of name recognition; I'm sure 10,000 people would give 10,000 different lists.
In no particular order:
Meat Loaf: Bat Out Of Hell
Boston: Boston
Foreigner: Foreigner
Van Halen; Van Halen
Heart: DreamBoat Annie
The Cars:The Cars
Led Zeppelin: Led Zeppelin
Guns and Roses-Appetite for Destruction
A very good list!. However there are some albums that I'd include such as:
Bleach - Nirvana
Ten - Pearl Jam
Queen - Queen
Hot Fuss - The Killers
Surfer Rosa - Pixies
Is This It - The Strokes
👍xx
Boston's debut is a big omission. My favorite debut album is #3 on here, The Jimi Hendrix Experience "Are You Experienced (US Edition)".
Queen
The debut Album of The Alan Parsons Project "Tales of Mystery and Imagination Edgar Allan Poe" is a masterpiece.
Agree, I’m looking for a vinyl copy, but too expensive on Amazon.
Larry, I never bought the King Krimson album due to the album cover. They needed to tight up their wigs.
Although this list isn't all that bad, it's missing some GIANT debut LPs. Boston, ELP, Dire Straights, Joe Jackson's Look Sharp, Meatloaf's Bat Out of Hell, and Tragically Hip's Up To Here to name a few. It would be impossible not to include these. And U2, Foreigner, Alan Parsons Project, Tracy Chapman and The Police probably make the list too.
Another good list, Larry. Have you have you ever done a Classics IV review? They’re kind of poppy/kind of jazzy.🤔
No, I just know of a couple of their hit songs like Spooky which is great.
Without seeing the whole video..my top two are Led Zeppelin and King Crimson..let’s see where they end up…Crimson at 29 is a joke…F*@k I hate these lists🤬🤬🤬Montrose is better!!! OMG..I love you Larry but I can’t get through these list videos..I need to go back on my blood pressure medication..At least they got Zeppelin right..
Santana, Portishead, Leonard Cohen, Kate Bush. I agree UCR-list #1.
Was the Boston debut really not listed? A mistake, or a stupid list?
Rush 'Rush' should be ranked higher. Motley Crue is okay right were it is, I like that debut. Ozzy and Metallica are also good right where they're at. Now, that Guns N' Roses is ranked a bit too high, it deserves to be on the list but not that high. I can't argue with what's at number 1. I don't know enough about the second spot to agree or disagree, so I'll have to listen to it. This was a great list, for once.
IMO the Guns n Roses debut album is one of the best hard rockin albums ever
I have 7 of the albums on the list. I just went through my record collection and found about 30 debut albums (I didn't count the ones that were on the list) that I love. Too many to list. A lot are from the punk/new wave era of the late 70s & early 80s. There were a few more that were decent but not outstanding. Both the Stones & the Who's first albums are their most underrated.
It's kind of a cheat, but worthy of mention because it was a game changer. The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan is technically his second studio album, but the first almost entirely of his own songs. Warren Zevon, as a singer-songwriter, once noted 'he invented my job' . A 21 year old folk singer couldn't make a debut album with his own material in 1962, but had to do arrangements of traditional tunes. So, giving special dispensation to the benefit that Dylan largely provided to later artists, I'd suggest a singer-songwriting debut (beside Talking NY and Song for Woody) album, with the likes of "Blowin' in the Wind", "Girl from the North Country", "Masters of War", "A Hard Rain's A-gonna Fall", "Don't Think Twice, It's Alright" and "Oxford Town" deserves mention here.
Well definitely the BIGGEST omission has to be Boston
Foreigner
Queen
KISS
Angel
Bad Company
Jeff Beck
Ratt
Molly Hatchet
Cinderella
Skid Row
To name a few 😁
I'd include Stone Roses, Arctic Monkeys, Tool, Suede, Stranglers, Television
Larry, I think the mid-70s punk still lives in you, and it lives in me, too.
Good video. Some of my favourite debuts not listed are Dead Kennedy’s Fresh Fruit… , Joy Division Unknown Pleasures, AC/DC’s High Voltage and Emperor’s In the Nightside Eclipse.
Half that list was ok. Mr. Tambourine Man is one of my least favourite albums. I don’t mind some Motley Crue - Too Fast for Love is a solid album. The 12 best from that list for me, in a basic order, are:
Black Sabbath
Velvet Underground and Nico
Iron Maiden
Appetite for Destruction
Blizzard of Ozz
The Doors
Are You Experienced?
Holy Diver
The Clash
Kill ‘Em All
Never Mind the Bollocks…
Please Please Me - pound for pound, it probably should be number 1.
Generally agree with the placement of the Zeppelin, Harrison, Hendrix, Beatles, Sabbath and Doors albums, but I would have put the Floyd and Plastic Ono Band albums higher on the list. The Ozzy solo albums are good--I have three or four of them.
You really should do a list of your least favorite bands, Larry. I'm thinking it would be a funny video.
Pretty good list. I‘d include DEVO.
I totally agree with 'Horses'. I never got it either.
Very strange list overall. How do you do a top debut album list and include Motley Crue, but not Boston? Song for song, I’d rank it above Zeppelin.
I’d also include Outlandos D’amour by The Police, The Lion And The Cobra by Sinead O’Connor, and “The Scream” by Siouxsie & The Banshees to the list.
Nope Ledd Zepp is one of the best
Hi Larry , not a bad list . The top 10 is good for sure . Funny thing I don’t have a lot of those albums, in many cases I bought the 2nd albums of these artists. Obviously Led Zeppelin 1 deserves to be # 1 . And Lennons Harrison’s albums are really great 👍🏻
This list is realy good.
In no universe should Guns n Roses be ranked above the Velvet Underground, Black Sabbath, and King Crimson.
Marquee Moon by Television should've been on here.
my fave Led Zeppelin also Boston also The Doors and Foreigner
Some great albums on the list but also some i don't particularly care for. I guess I have about 20-25 of the albums of the list.
I made my own top 10 list and 6 of those are not on the list above, most notably, Mountain and Queen
1. Mountain - Climbing
2. Led Zeppelin
3. Queen
4. Sir Lord Baltimore - Kingdom Come
5. Pink Floyd Piper at the gates of dawn
6. Joy Division - Unknown pleasures
7. Black Sabbath
8. Pretenders
9. Judas Priest - Rocka Rolla
10. Blue Oyster Cult
Made my list up on the spot. Other contenders are Roxy Music,, Iggy Pop - The Idiot, Velvet Underground & Nico, Television - Marquee Moon, the Cars
King's X, "Out Of The Silent Planet."
Please Please Me.
Outlandos d'Amour.
Can't Buy a Thrill.
Happy to see Ted nugent 1st album on here my top 5 are Ted Nugent 1975 Van Halen 1978 Black Sabbath 1970 montrose 1973 blue oyster cult 1972
In honor of Earth Day, how on Earth is Boston's debut not on this list?
Sparks,sparks and sparks.
Larry did you check out the new blue oyster cult? I know you like them.
PLEASE make your own lists!!! In the Court of the Crimson King. A great album! “I talk to the Wind” frequently is on my mind. Checkout Robert Fripp’s Wife’s (Toyah Wilcox) CZcams channel. She is an 80’s Post Punk Star. Their videos are some of the funniest (sometimes scary) ever. You’ll see a side of Robert Fripp that you may have never known existed. Thanks! ✌️🎻🙂😎
I've done more than one video of my favorite debut albums on my Canadian Studmuffin channel in the past... czcams.com/video/4itrmbfKx9I/video.html
@@TheCanadianStudmuffin Yep! Excuse my brain fart. I love your channels Larry! Keep up the great work! Thanks! 😎
@@mccypr Thank you!
here is 2 , HOW ABOUT Bad Company, Bad Company? Chicago Transit Authority who becomes Chicago!
Hi larry i actualy like this list nice to see iron maiden in there and i have to agree led zeppelin debute album is a great debute album 👍✌️
For Me you can't beat the Beatles Please Please Me or the Jimi Hendrix Experience Are You Experienced for debut albums Larry,two phenomanal albums. Bob
Montrose was a good one. Steely Dan was great. Ozzy was a great one with Randy Rhodes Crazy Train was great. Sex Pistols was terrible. Metallica the picture on the cover turns me off I don't want to hear it. This was a good list only a few of them were not that good but what happened to Boston?
Pink Floyd, actually their best. Yeah, I'm a nut. So sue me. Cool T, LG. I want that Byrds album😸
Some great debuts...some unnecessary...I need The Stone Roses debut!
Have people from North America even heard of the Stone Roses?
KISS
Blue Oyster Cult, Captain Beyond
There are no reasons to have any respect for Metallica😀
I love the first Led Zeppelin album
Your a nugant fan howwwww dare u 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm not a Nugent fan... I just liked some of his early 70's music.
@@TheCanadianStudmuffin The only song with him I ever cared for was Papa's Will on Survival of the Fittest. Jim
The debut album of Van Halen is their one and only best in my opinion. Lost interest in them after this. 😎👍
Bleach.
