Favourite 'debut' album from new band lineup?

Not sure if this has been done before. Has to be a significant new lineup change, not just a new bassist/drummer (sorry bassists and drummers!). Really looking for ones where the band sound and identity was rebooted and maybe even had a new creative force. First examples I thought of:

Fleetwood Mac 1975, bringing in Buckingham and Nicks

Deep Purple In Rock, bringing in Gillan and Glover.

Doesn't have to be two new members like my examples; could be one but has to be a significant change that gave the first album they did a feel of it being a 'debut'.

 

Mac 1975


Jethro Tull - A is my dark horse, however it only lasted 1 album.

 

Fairport Convention - Expletive Delighted

Brought in Rik Sanders (although depending on source, was apparently a "guest" on the previous album - although I always considered him a full time member) and Maart Allcock

 

AC/DC w/ back in black.

 

Good choices with Fleetwood Mac and Deep Purple.

My picks off the top of my head:

Deep Purple - Burn (Coverdale and Hughes replacing Gillan and Glover)
Motley Crue - self titled 6th album (John Corabi replacing Vince Neil)
Suede - Coming Up (Bernard Butler replaced by Richard Oakes and gain keyboard player Neil Codling)

All the above are significant due to departed and/or new members being contributing songwriters.

 

Only one change in the lineup but I'd go for Heaven and Hell by Black Sabbath. It was a complete reboot.

 

Iron Maiden album #3 - The Number of the Beast

Bruce Dickinson !!

 

Lynyrd Skynyrd: Street Survivors

 

Suede - Coming Up.

 

Also, 18 different albums by The Fall.

 

Rolling Stones' sticky fingers count?

 

Allman Brothers Band- Seven Turns (1990)

The ABB 90s comeback album with new members Warren Haynes, Allen Woody and Johnny Neel.
The band broke up in the early 1980s and this record proved that the band was back.

 

Alice In Chains - Black Gives Way To Blue

 

King Crimson - Discipline

Only Fripp and Bruford remained from Red. Adding Levin and Belew.

Their overall sound changed quite a bit (no, they didn't become a New Wave band), while still retaining their progressiveness*.

*their complexity and musicianship remained, it was just focused in a different direction.

 

Henry Cow - In Praise Of Learning

 

ABB - Brothers And Sisters feat. new keyboard player (Chuck Leavell)

 

You guys have taken all the good ones and left me to say the Doobies' Minute by Minute!

 

Adam and the Ants Kings of the Wild Frontier

 

Yardbirds, aka Roger The Engineer, with Jeff Beck

 

Natty Dread. Bob Marley, minus Peter and Bunny. A totally different sound with the I Threes.

 

Vienna by Ultravox

 

The Yes Album. Steve Howe's addition made them a different band.

 

It was the the same lineup than the two preceding albums AFAIK...

 

Weather Report - Black Market (feat. a guy called Jaco Pastorius...)

 

The Byrds: Sweetheart Of The Rodeo, with Gram Parsons
