Thought I would start a thread on progressive rock groups whom you feel had their greatest album being their debut record. Obviously, artists with one album only is a no brainer, but otherwise, who qualifies? From any era, or prog category....
Of course, this is pretty subjective, as beauty "is in the eye of the beholder"... My entries for prog groups whose best, for me, is their debut, are: King Crimson Mahavishnu Orchestra Brainstorm Libra Dedalus Beggar's Opera Atomic Rooster Spyro Gyra Synergy Badger Ambrosia Flash Pell Mell Starcastle Alan Parsons Project Edited by presdoug - 5 hours 25 minutes ago at 11:47 |

 For me, it's a tie with Audion. Both get played more than the others (but they're far from left out). I'd agree with you about Libra, but I love Schock (with future Goblin alum Maurizio Guarini). |

It only means that the debut is a/my personal favorite, and not in any way that I don't enjoy more of the ones listed:
Return To Forever Weather Report Neu! Ash Ra Tempel Magma Area High Tide Eskaton PFM Kayo Dot Steve Hackett Family (except in this case, I only like this one album) Arti E Mestieri Nektar Elephant9 Univers Zero Abus Dangereux Kraan Agitation Free A.R & Machines Deuter East of Eden Rainbow Peter Bardens Black Widow |
