Precious Declaration - Disciplined Breakdown - Collective Soul
What's the best opening track of an album?
- Thread starter dahliaclone
- Start date
Did someone else say this?! Because it's a great start.
Bawitdaba - Kid Rock
1. 1st album for Kid Rock (at least popular)
2. Intro with the slow background and with the chorus to bawitdaba that builds and builds.
3. Breaks it into the yell.
4. Just saying to start "My name Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiid (drummer start)
KID ROCK ROCK

Lou Reed Rock -n- Roll Animal gets my vote for side 1/side two openers...
Intro/Sweet Jane and White Light/White Heat
It's good, but I think 'Omaha Stylee' would be a great 1st track for 'Grassroots' album. Plus the intro part into the song.
I'm not really a fan of Kid Rock, never heard this song and it's really bland.
I was just looking in track 1 for albums to make a good intro for the rest. Doesn't have to be best song on the album, just starts the beginning.
Nobody cares albums new now, just do the singles and do digital eras. I'm thinking of albums from 90s where I got a cassette/cd on album and play the whole thru.
"Suite: Judy Blue Eyes" Crosby, Stills and Nash debut album
Detroit Rock City from the Destroyer album is solid.
Yeah I think that album was amazing but only a couple songs I've liked since.
In 2017 they played that whole album live in Des Moines as its 20th year anniversary. Was incredible...they also added in Santa Monica.
Sturgill Simpson - Album: Metamodern Sounds in Country Music; Song: Turtles All the Way Down
Detroit Rock City, King of the Nighttime World, and God of Thunder is about as good a 1-2-3 punch to start an album as there is IMO.
Heavy metal-hard rock:
1. Judas Priest - The Hellion/Electric Eye
2. Hells Bells - AC/DC - Back in Black
3. War Pigs - Black Sabbath- Paranoid
4. Ace of Spades - Motörhead- Ace of Spades
5. Enter Sandman - Metallica
Others:
Like a Rolling Stone - Bob Dylan - Highway 61 revisited
Hurricane- Bob Dylan - Desire
Big Iron - Marty Robbins- Gun Fighter Ballads and Trail Songs
Christine’s Tune - Flying Burrito Brothers - The Gilded Palace of Sin
Me and Mr. Hoerner - Bobby Darin - Commitment

Only one correct answer. Blind from Korn's self-titled. Instrumental build up to a scream of "Are you ready?"
I shared this in another thread, but it’s hard to imagine a kid in 1970 seeing this album cover, throwing this record on and not shitting his pants.
