There's a bit of chat on the radio stations about favourite debut albums after the release of the UK chart for the best selling debut albums. www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-63244820Honourable mentions for Alanis Morissette, Dido, Tracy Chapman and the Killers for me on that list. From a personal perspective it's a toss up between Steely Dan's Can't buy a thrill and Marillion's Script6 for a jesters tear both practically perfect in every way.

For pure pop ABC's Lexicon of Love takes some beating but in terms of pure artistry Deaf School's 2nd Honeymoon beats all comers.

Led Zeppelin 1 Boston - Boston Oasis - Definitely Maybe The Velvet Underground and Nico Sex Pistols - Never Mind the Bollocks Jimi Hendrix - Are You Experienced Van Halen - Van Halen Those are the ones that spring immediately to mind and, in my opinion, not a duff track on any of them.

Stone roses will always be the best debut album
I would absolutely love to open it on vinyl and listen to it full for the very first time.
Not a massive Stereophonics fan but their debut is brilliant too

Generation Terrorists - Manic Street Preachers That’s a belter though I preferred The follow up album. Was Generation Terrorists there first album thought they did a couple of unsuccessful ones before it. I might be wrong. I loved Screamadelica too but I think that was the same likewise the Verve’s Urban Hymns.

It’s a fantastic punky rock album, a far cry from Everything Must Go which is a mighty fine album but far more commercial. I’ve seen them live many times and they’re one of my favourite live acts

I can’t stand Primal Scream so not sure on that one

Just checked you’re right it was there debut. Favourite track? Little Baby Nothing for me. The Verve are class some of there early stuff was unbelievable. This is a cracker. Great video too.
