Reviews

'This volume is the first sustained critical discussion of the general nature and significance of debut albums. All are original essays, written exclusively for the collection, with their authors bringing a diverse range of critical and creative perspectives to their selected debut. In addition to accessible musical analyses of the 23 albums included, each is placed within a wider production context, including the role of the music industry, and considered in relation to time and place, genre, and the artists' subsequent work. This is a sometimes surprising but always instructive and thought provoking selection of essays, which will encourage greater attention to an important but previously largely neglected topic.'Roy Shuker, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand and author of Wax Trash and Vinyl Treasures: Record Collecting as a Social Practice
