The greatest of them all is Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells. Some others worth mentioning (not necessarily my fave by the band or artist):

Alquin - Marks
Tori Amos - Little Earthquakes
Deluge Grander - August in the Urals
Nick Drake - Five Leaves Left
ELP - s/t
Hamadryad - Conservation of Mass
Kayak - See See the Sun
Pink Floyd - The Piper at the Gates of Dawn
Shamblemaths - s/t
Velvet Underground - The Velvet Underground & Nico

Lots of debuts I love, for for a long running band with many albums, Kobaïa cannot be beaten for me. Magma has been going for 55 years, released lots of great albums, and that double-album from 1970 still can't be beat for me. A remarkable debut from a remarkable band.

"From Genesis to Revelation" or "Trespass"?  The latter is surely the stronger LP! 

Also, many of these bands had "proto-debut" LPs.  

For example, "The Cheerful Insanity of Giles, Giles & Fripp" clearly led into ITCOTCK!

Great discussion everyone!!  Paul, thanks for the amazing list! Clap

As far as a "proto-debut" LP, I would include Jethro Tull's This Was from 1968. It may have been the first album under that band name, but it was more of a collaboration in blues-rock and jazz with Mick Abrahams and Ian Anderson sharing the spotlight. It wasn't until 1969's Stand Up that we get the truer prog direction of the band.

Yep in my book an E.P. (occasionally known as a maxi-single) contains 3-6 tracks and plays for around 10-20 minutes (i.e longer than the traditional 7" single). An album usually clocks in at 30+ minutes... anything in between can probably be described as a mini-album.

Although it's not hard and fast, and indeed gets more intriguing them more you delve into it.

Yes and I can understand why people say DOFP is the first Moody Blues album (even the band themselves considered it to be) but really it isn't because they had some of the same members plus the name is the same. Otherwise the first Renaissance album isn't Renaissance and also you could say Genesis didn't start until Trespass or Nursery Cryme and Yes didn't start until the Yes album but then it starts to get a bit silly. 
I suppose I can understand it, but it's not correct and I don't agree. And I find it pointless. Some bands deliver a classic debut album - others need a few attemnts to get it right.

Not necessarily. If the first album is an EP, I wouldn't call it the debut. Or if the first album was released by the record company without permission from the artist, and said artist received no compensation from that release, for example, Allan Holdsworth's "Velvet Darkness" then it is not their debut.
It's still relatively simple to me - an EP is an EP, just like a Single is a Single release and can never be an album. 
-An album released by the record company without permission from the artist is such a rare exception from "my rule", that is doesn't have an impact on how I think. But I agree that it doesn't count, as it's not the artists own album creation.

Thanks for reminding me that it's Music In A Doll's House and not From. I'll have to go fix that. Wink I know of  the others on your list but haven't heard them so I'll have to check them out. The Jon Anderson and Steve Hackett are both great though and worthy of inclusion for sure.

I was going to mention Captain Beyond but wasn't sure if it was prog enough. Great album though.

Another good one is the first David Gilmour album.
