Topic: Debut albums by classic bands Posted: November 27 2006 at 11:36 |
Which of these debut albums by a couple of classic Prog bands is your
favourite? I vote for Yes' selftitled debut, a tragically underrated
album. I didn't include In the Court of the Crimson King by KC, because
everyone would've voted for that one.

The first ELP album is the only ELP album one I can listen to fully without skipping any songs or parts from songs.

I said RUSH because I think it is extremely underrated. Yes it is not proggy, but it is a kick ass hard rockin album. It definately deserves more than it seems to get.

ELP! Their debut is excellent! Followed by Camel's bluesy debut

I'm surprised no one came up with Gentle Giant's dubut. it's completely amazing album. no other band has sounded so tight on their first record. the year was 1970 and that album is better than much of the things done after that. there's also a good mention to ELP's first!. By the way Rush's 1974 really rocks!!!.
Peace!.

to both Father Tiresias and Phileas, I did mention GG and VdGG, only that I was asked to vote for just one of my favourite four.

ELP could actually win a poll ...shock horror
...although by default as King Crimsons debut is clearly the best.

A tough one this between Floyd, Yes & Rush. I love all three debuts, but in the end I voted for Yes. I had the vinyl, and now have the remaster. I especially admire Peter Banks' great guitar work.
Definitely an underrated guitarist.

My vote goes for Yes seltitled... I'm a big fan of Yes and that's the reason why but I really love other debut albums from that list such as VdGG, Magma Kobaia and ELP Same, one of the most impressive debut albums that I've heard...
