One of the best debut albums of the 80s?

[HABA87]

Pet Shop Boys - Please
Metallica - Kill 'Em All
Pixies - Surfer Rosa
GnR - AforD
De La Soul – 3 Feet High and Rising

At the time I was pre-teens and more likely to be listening to stock aitken and waterman mind. Although Appetite for Destruction was the first CD I bought a few years after it's release.
