For me personally I can't think of another classic rock album that gets more radio play from every song that is on the record.

 

And yet they lost the Grammy for new artist to "The Starland Vocal Band." :ohbrother:

I did not know that...:lol2:

If you ask me, it's between Led Zeppelin's "Led Zeppelin", Hendrix's "Are You Experienced", and The Band's "Music From Big Pink". The others are good, but those three are head and shoulders above the rest of the field.

AC/DC - Back In Black

The Who - Who's Next

These are two of the top of my mind.

 

However, your question about debut albums, Boston's "Boston" would be my #1 pick. Foreigners debut release is pretty solid as well.

Well, duh.

 

I mean, how can you beat a skyrocket in flight?

It appears that I may not be as old as some on here although I do like most of the choices I have seen so far. With that being said my choice would be Pearl Jam - Ten with Blind Melon self titled as a close second.

Good call. :thumb:

 

Their 2nd was interesting as well though very different making me eagerly anticipate an amazing career that unfortunately never happened due to Shannon Hoon's life being cut too short too soon.

Nicco is really my favorite Blind Melon album.
