First Song...First Side...First Album

[HailCorduroy]

10,000 Days - Tool
Frances the Mute - The Mars Volta

10,000 Days is Tool's 4th album and it's the 4th song on that album.

Frances the Mute is Mars Volta's 2nd album and is the name of the album, there is no song called Frances the Mute.

Dark Side Of The Moog - Strange New Flesh - Coliseum II

 

[Turock]

The Allman Brothers Band
Don't Want You No More

Set the tone for a real kickass album.

You can almost guess folks' ages from their responses.

You're probably early 30s, for instance.

Not quite. 24 in June.

Once - Pearl Jam
Runnin' w/ the Devil - Van Halen

Love Rush's first one too!

I still remember hearing Runnin' with the Devil for the first time on my stereo...Van Halen had just come out and I had no clue what they would sound like...my friend had recommended it...I was totally blown away!

Please see title of thread.

 

[HailCorduroy]

I was referring to the albums.

And neither album was the 1st album for that band. The thread is about the 1st song on the 1st album by a band.

 

[PICK]

Machine Head - Burn My Eyes. First song, Davidian, is probably worth mentioning as well.

Ahem: "FIRST SONG...First Side...First Album"

Ahem: "FIRST SONG...First Side...First Album"

My sincerest apologies. Allow me to move the words around for you Davidian...Compact Disk...Burn My eyes.

 

[Spedracer]

I think lots of people aren't quite grasping the thread.

I'd say

This Is a Call - Foo Fighters
Good Times Bad Times - Zeppelin
S.O.S. - Earl Greyhound
Regular John - Queens of the Stone Age
Down - 311
Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana

 

[Febs]

Do It Again -- Steely Dan

Suite: Judy Blue Eyes -- Crosby, Stills and Nash

 

[deecher99]

Great Thread Idea. So many good ones mentioned, I'll add:

Liz Phair - 6'1"
Paul Simon - Mother and Child Reunion
Uncle Tupelo - Graveyard Shift
Air - La Femme d'Argent
My Bloody Valentine - Only Shallow (I think this qualifies)

 

[Frank Tuesday]

I think lots of people aren't quite grasping the thread.

I'd say
...
Down - 311
Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana

Sorry, this is too funny.

 

[deecher99]

I gotta agree Frank, that is pretty funny.

 

[sarcastro83]

Janie Jones - The Clash

Head Like A Hole - Nine Inch Nails

Ether - Gang of Four

Bone Machine - The Pixies

Disorder - Joy Division

Requiem - Killing Joke

are among my favourites.

It Won't Be Long - Beatles - With the Beatles (UK First Release)

That was Beatles' second release in the UK.

My choices, in no particular order, are:

- "Welcome To The Jungle" by Guns N' Roses
- "More Than A Feeling" by boston
- "I Saw Her Standing There" by The Beatles

There are lots other great debut tracks like Rush's "Finding My Way", Kiss' "Strutter", Van Halen's "Runnin' With The Devil", Black Sabbath's eponymous song and AC/DC's "It's a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll)" (first song in their international discography), but to me none of them is as impressive as the ones listed above considering them as the songs selected to create first impressions. In that sense I put "I Saw Her Standing There" slightly aside since The Beatles already had a couple of well-known single hits when their first album was released.
