    it may be an obvious choice, but still:



    I like it better than any Beatles album because it doesn't contain any Paul McCartney songs.

    Donald: Teh Nightfly

    And MJ had solo joints before Off The Wall but was still in The J5 and even in The Jacksons after/during OTW(Triumph) and Thriller(Victory).

    Kool Keith - Dr. Octagon was a trio/collabo. Sex Styles was his 'official' solo debut.

    There are numerous jazz sidemen that went on to drop their own flavour of awesomeness.

    So there's this:


    But I guess that's also muddying the waters. I guess we are talking groups with vocals.

    I was going to go for "Off The Wall" but it was, like, he never fully left.

    "Nightfly" already done. WMIC.

    But wait... Perennial Strut Fave:


    And... from the leftfield...

    All By Myself was actually his solo debut after leaving the Temptations, but I ride for this one too.

    Now I think of it, Chaz Jankel's first LP after the Blockheads is a favourite.

    Confusingly titled 'Chas Jankel', had some brilliant cuts:

    Ai No Corrida
    Lents Latina
    Am I Honest With Myself Really?
    Fuse

    So, so good

    Some of these being listed are just first solo records that don't represent the artist actually LEAVING their group.

    I try so hard to get into this album. Girlfriend is MY SHIT(the sister in that video is right up there w/ Tracy Reed), but after that its a wrap.
    Its funny cause the Larry Blackmon shoulda kinda worked. He was still relevant in 85/86. But no hit singles

    The next New Jack Swing album is where the jump off was. You never hear any of the singles from the first album after that.
