"It was fifty years ago that the Beatles&amp;#x2019; released their first album,&amp;#xA0;Please Please Me. In honor of that world-changing LP, we&amp;#x2019;ve compiled a list of the 100 Greatest Debut Albums of All Time. A note on how we made the list: Albums got docked points if the artist went on to far greater achievements (which is why Please, Please Me and Greetings from Asbury Park, great as they are, didn&amp;apos;t made the top ten); conversely, we gave a little extra recognition to great debut albums that the artist never matched (hello,&amp;#xA0;Is This It and&amp;#xA0;Illmatic!). We also skipped solo debuts by artists who were already in well-known bands, which is why you won&amp;#x2019;t see&amp;#xA0;John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band or&amp;#xA0;Paul Simon. We focused, instead, on debuts that gave you the thrill of an act arriving fully-formed, ready to reinvent the world in its own image."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
