Greatest debut album

Mostly listening to rock music from the 60s and 70s, thus I am asking a biased question. My greatest debut album is From Genesis to Revelation by Genesis.  I understand there were production issues in the making of the album but Gabriel's voice is astonishing on this LP.   I wish I could find a live version of Into the Wilderness but can not. Any help in that would be appreciated.  Look forward to hearing others opinions for selfish reasons as I want to grow my collection and appreciate the opinions represented here.

The Fleetwood Mac - Fleetwood Mac album as it is the first of many great offerings of the legendary iteration of this group.  BTW...the 2018 CD remaster is fantastic!!  Listening to it right now.😀

Frankie Goes to Hollywood.  The sonic immersion in that album is awesome.

First off, great topic! Secondly, I've got to admit that the debut albums by The Doors and Led Zeppelin were the first two that came to mind.

However, I think "All Things Must Pass" by George Harrison qualifies. "Wonderwall Music" was a film soundtrack and a vanity project; plus, it was released while he was still in the Beatles. "All Things Must Pass" was a proper debut from him as a solo artist. I'd also give a vote to "Grace" by Jeff Buckley.

"Honorable mentions" for the debuts by Crack The Sky and The Pretenders.
