The Nouvelle Vague covers of Clash stuff is so different, so interesting and so good. They turned Guns of Brixton 180 degrees in vibe. hmmm some great covers around but not feeling that one Link to comment

They are probably the top two. Notable mentions to Arctics (who I went cold on real quick thereafter), The View and most recently Fontaines. You've been good since you came back but disagree on the Arctics and F DC. is there a best debut album thread? I expect there will be! id certainly agree re self titled clash though. Cover to cover, bloody great. Link to comment

I compared it to the live version you posted and I prefer the slow extraction of the essence of the music and the art within the lyrics to that particular clumsy confused are-we-meant-to-act-punklike-to-this-audience non-musical rendition. fair enough , i wouldn't listen to it twice . Not a put down Link to comment
Poodler Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 1 minute ago, rocket_scientist said: Unclear thinking for a couple of reasons. You're not my judge and the fact I gave a notable mention to three debut albums that I like isn't an area to disagree on. Taste is not like facts. We like or dislike to various degrees and a hundred people will have a hundred different outlooks. I think in your absence you may have missed my rise to prominent musical guru of the board. So whilst yes, musical opinion is that of the beholder, I have the final say on what constitutes a good album. I'm not judging you as a person, I'm just telling you your opinion on this matter is wrong. Link to comment

The intelligence, originality and fuck you attitude burns bright. I've shown that piece of writing to so many people. At all times of day or night. JUST LOOK AT THIS.

styrofoamplates Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 The answer is Appetite For Destruction Link to comment
Simply Red Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Fairly common for a bands debut to be their best. off the top of my head: Stone Roses/Pistols (only 1 album released)/Inspiral Carpets @styrofoamplates was livin on a prayer on appetite for destruction? If so i agree thats the best debut album ever. Link to comment

redstrummer Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 24 minutes ago, rocket_scientist said: Not everyone will be old enough but Led Zeppelin I was a phenomenal debut album, one of the best first albums of all time and yet in my opinion was not their best. If put on the spot I couldn't give a definite opinion of what was their best and whilst I don't agree with the many who say IV was their best, I would probably take Physical Graffiti or perhaps the underrated Presence with me to the desert island ? Communication breakdown and particularly Babe I'm gonna leave you were fresh and new music 51 years ago when it came out. Another great band i didn't appreciate until later in life. The ipod and sharing music was a revelation to me Link to comment

Unless youre looking for it then you barely know it's there. Has to have better kerb appeal. You raise a good point Hanzoid he did have a big sign outside. Council said the overhang was too much, now not allowed anything. used to have wooden boards on union street and in that open space beside M&S directing people to it. Council said they weren't allowed. incredibly difficult to be an independent business with those disgusting pigs in the council raising your fees to pay for that unused office space on broad street Link to comment
