Comment:

Here we have 27 of the greatest DEBUT singles of all time. I'm almost 95% certain they were debuts in both the UK and US. The title of the mix ' It's All Downhill From Here ' suggests that each artist never bettered their first single which of course in almost all cases is untrue, it's just the title i decided on!! No doubt this mix will leave people fuming at the glaring ommision of their favourite debut track, if so let me know as there is enough out there for many more volumes....

You're far too clever for your own good sammyg. Nonetheless, You managed to include the NASHVILLE TEENS, and therein lies your genius. Oh, and the BOB DYLAN debut is a nice touch also. Five stars and class swot status to you, you bugger.

This is great, though I have to admit I'm bound to love most mixes that have Green Onions.

Very good idea! It's funny how in most cases that first single is the defining song of the artist. A very nice looking mix indeed.

This is outstanding. just added it to the trainspotters' exhibit. Funny that Bo Diddley debuted with Bo Diddley. I mean, no one knew who Bo Diddley was till that song came out!
