Going with Bowie's debut. Not a favorite of a lot of folks, but I find it charming. Pre-glam period too. I sound amazing covered in paper plates. ------------- ---------- i'm shopping for a new oil-cured sinus bag that's a happy bag of lettuce this car smells like cartilage nothing beats a good video about fractions |

Pilot, although it's Virginia Plain to see that Roxy Music will be the most likely winners here.  |

Good grief, Paul... these polls get weirder.. It would have to be Roxy out of that lot, although I was never a big fan... ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson |

I just adore 'Axe victim' by Be-bop deluxe.. got a couple of clunkers on it but its got a great atmosphere plus some real classics.. but i'm a big Bill Nelson fan ------------- |

I think I would have lost any credibility I have remaining here if I'd given the Bay City Rollers debut any more than two stars.

No win for Sparks this time around, but here's a video of Ron & Russell for our American friends. |

Voted for T.Rex's debut which marked a significant transition from the sound of their previous incarnation as Tyrannosaurus Rex. ------------- 'We're going to need a bigger swear jar.' |

I've never been a fan of the original Tyrannosaurus Rex, but I was hooked when I heard Metal Guru by T.Rex for the first time in 1972 - one of the first four singles I ever bought, alongside Take Me Bak 'Ome by Slade, Little Willy by Sweet and California Man by The Move. |

Roxy Music's debut would be my second choice - they had a far more proggy sound on their first two albums when Brain Eno was their resident knob twiddler. ------------- 'We're going to need a bigger swear jar.' |

Oooooh, that first Roxy LP - one of my favorite albums of any genre. If There Is Something......not only my favorite Roxy tune but also my favorite Bowie cover. ------------- I like to feel the suspense when you're certain you know I am there..... |

If There is Something I can confidently predict from the results of this first poll, then it's most likely going to be a win for either David Bowie or Roxy Music in all of the subsequent polls in this series. We'll see how that turns out, bearing in mind all of my previous predictions have turned out to be totally wrong. |

I am going to go with the popular vote on this one and pick Roxy |
