good one. produced by Al Kooper. Seem to recall that Tom Dowd had something to do with the engineering, but could be wrong. At the time of release, I wasn't familiar with the band, but they opened for The Who on the Quadrophenia tour. Saw them in Dallas and they were very good.

Best 1st and Last
A unique addition to this list. A band from Winnipeg, Manitoba called Mood Ja Ja. They released a self-titled album in 1972. It was there first and last album as a group. Greg Leskiw of the band went on to join The Guess Who. This album was a mixture of soft rock / jazz and was produced by Phil Spector.

If you can find the album I recommend it. Still listen to it often - 40yrs later.

One that I'm kinda surprised hasn't been mentioned: "Pretenders" by The Pretenders.
One of my favorites that hardly anyone has heard of these days: "Lone Justice" by Lone Justice.
Oh, and I'll place a vote for Lyle's debut, too...if for no other reason than we went to the same high school and college. Gotta support my fellow Texan!Last edited by GeeJay; 2012-10-25 at 19:40.

may have already been listed, but this morning listening to John Prine's debut. A classic.

Actually, Leskiw started up Mood jga jga AFTER he'd played with the Guess Who. Their self-titled album was released in 1975; he played with the Guess Who from 70 to 72, I believe. The Mood jga jga album was produced by Phil Ramone, not Phil Spector. Which was undoubtedly a better idea. Originally Posted by slice235

Leskiw actually has some great more recent recordings, in particular Moonglow by the group called Swing Soniq. He sings and plays guitar. It's great, and is generally available.
