I remember when I was starting to get into jazz as a teenager, this was maybe the second jazz album I ever bought. Stuck it on for the first time in my mateās kitchen and within seconds we were strutting around the place like pimps.

Iām not a massive U2 fan but if there was a thread entitled the best, first three songs on an album it would be The Joshua Tree.
Some very female and illicit memories from this album.
Great tune - the bloke was as mad as a bucket of soapy frogs though

Great thread, @SaintBristol.
As soon as I heard this song I knew this album would be unlike anything Iād heard before, and I love it.
Thisā¦
ā¦but from the Tracy Chapman album - not greatest hits. Again, I thought āwowā she has something special. Great track.

Any number of first songs on LPs by the Zim qualify. Hereās a selection:
From Blood On The Tracks
From Bringing It All Back Home
From Freewheelinā
From Tempest (with a fucking excellent video too)
Plus, of course, from Highway 61 Revisited

If you picked up a copy of Trout Mask Replica, the whole look of the LP cover, the song titles, the names of the musicians, should tell you that youāre not about to hear something run of the mill. The first song, Frownland, confirms this. Big time.
