I stopped reading once I saw the likes of Jay-Z and The Arcade Fire in the top 12

where is The Cars debut? (the rock effort before they switched to new wave)...6x Platinum

by **Deb** » Thu Jan 29, 2009 8:24 am

Or, Alanis Morisette's Jagged Little Pill = 16 million?

by **mikemarrs** » Thu Jan 29, 2009 8:28 am

Jagged Little Pill was her 3rd album.

Why is that wrong? Numbers are numbers. It's not their fault their albums moved in big numbers.

Oops, totally forgot about her dance-pop stuff, my bad. :lol:

Without spending too much time scanning the list I would count these as great debut albums . Not necessarily in terms of sales but certainly quality

Eagles -by the Eagles
Doors - the Doors
Dont Mess Around with Jim - Jim Croce - (if that guy Only lived longer...we missed out on a lot of good music)
America- America
Shake your Money Maker Black crowes
Genesis - from genesis to revelation
Motley Crue - too fast for love
Def Lepp- on through the night
Rush - Rush

It can't be correct. They had the #1 debut album of all time at 17x Platinum at last count, and they're not in that lists top 100? Sump'n's fucked up there.

Appetite For Destrusction by G&R is certified 18X Platinum by the RIAA in the U.S. and is well over 25X Platinum worldwide. That was their debut album, wasn't it?

What? No Christopher Cross??? :evil:

Yessir. I wasn't sure if Boston had been usurped or not. Guess they have.

by **dabstudio** » Thu Jan 29, 2009 10:30 am

MEAT LOAF - 'Bat Out Of Hell'

First Def Leppard album? I thought it was 'First Strike'?

by **StoneCold** » Thu Jan 29, 2009 11:03 am

Hey Nigs, nice to see ya throw a thread up man.

my 2 cents:

The Cars self titled and yeah I agree with above, Boston duh.

Looking at some of the garbage they put in that list, no wonder these are missing.

Saw Alanis a little while back with 3 Doors Down ... she had found makeup, hot rollers, and tight pants ... just seemed the wrong look to go with those I-want-to-crush-your-balls lyrics :lol:

by **StoneCold** » Thu Jan 29, 2009 4:21 pm

Alanis disappeared from the charts. She was alright though her shrieking irritated me. Saw some pics of her riding motorcycle. She's a healthy woman. Makeup would go good on her.

by **WalrusOct9** » Thu Jan 29, 2009 5:00 pm

Oasis' Definitely Maybe and the Stone Roses self-titled album are missing...clearly this was written by an American, although that still doesn't account for lack of Boston.

My top 5 debuts would be Guns N' Roses, Oasis, Boston, The Stone Roses, and...maybe Jeff Buckley's Grace? Slot #5 is a tough one...hmmm....

I hate to watch her sing. Very strange looking. She opens her mouth by moving her head instead of her jaw. :lol:
