Tough list to come up with. I was never a big singles person so we'll go with albums

1) Clash - ST
2) Pogues - Red Roses for Me
3) SLF - Inflamable Material
4) Dead Kennedys - Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegtables
5) Redskins - Neither Washington Nor Moscow
Great list revbob. The problem I had with a lot of bands I love is the best album wasn't the debut. However I should of had The Ruts The Crack in my list.
Yeah thats often the case though right?
Yeah I guess so in some cases. Some bands never match their debut either. Or only release the one like the Redskins.
It would havd been iinteresting to see their evolution

The La's debut is a standalone classic, I'm gonna give props to that.

Isn’t that record also somehow the fourth recorded version of it after he arbitrarily abandoned the other recordings?

EDIT: there is an alternate universe where he developed some chill and the La’s replaced Oasis in British pop culture.

Something like that. One other version for sure exists, and was released on a deluxe version of the album that came out a few years back.

Oh to be a young man in alternate England, where the Gallaghers were drowned in their bathtub by perceptive villagers and Mavers consumed different drugs.

The voters despise a flip-flopper, you know. You were better off doubling-down and accusing Inder and I of selling prom queens to North Korea. :shifty:
