Best debut album?

The second self-titled album by Fleetwood Mac.

Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks joins the band, making up 20 percent of the band. Christine McVie was the only other songwriter and so Buckingham and Nicks actually counts as 60 percent of the songwriters in the band. Buckingham and Nicks are actually a majority when it comes to the "hitmakers" in the band. Furthermore, it was probably mostly Stevie Nick's songs and presence that had the most appeal and can be credited for making Fleetwood Mac a band that didn't fade into obscurity?

Yes, Christine McVie seemed to have stopped making blues songs too and only made pop songs starting with this album. It would also be the second time a Fleetwood Mac album is self-titled. Why? My guess is that it's a statement proclaiming "phase two", a sort of debut? A lot of people have never heard of the blues-based Fleetwood Mac albums from before and so this album IS like Fleetwood Mac's debut to them?

by that logic every sugarbabes release was a debut

Erroneously entitled Fleetwood Mac by Fleetwood Mac instead of Fleetwood Mac_V2 by..
yup, you guessed Fleetwood Mac_V2...
Now that would be a debut album, I guess>>

Aha... with Mr Black LP..
"He began playing a Gibson Les Paul with the Bluesbreakers, a guitar which was often referred to as his "magic guitar". Though he played other guitars, he is best known for deriving a unique tone from his 1959 Les Paul.[4][36] Green later sold it to Northern Irish guitarist Gary Moore for $US300, which was the same price he had paid for it.[37] In 2016, Kirk Hammett of Metallica bought the guitar for a reported $US2 million"
I believe there is still debates around this sale to G Moore.

I've just briefly Googled the Sugarbabes. Were they always a pop band? I guess Atomic Kitten might not be a pop band just going by their name. They could be industrial. I don't know. On second thought, Atomic Kitten sounds cute. I have to Google that later, after scrabble.

Were the Sugarbabes's fan-base ever-changing or was it essentially the same fan-base who were aware of all the changes?

Before the OMD connection they were known as atomic rooster . That was in the late 50s iirc after Cliff Richard invented Brit Pop.

He did a lot of great things after, and I actually like the title track on Crisis a lot, but it's all just derivative to this
