Is there a list of albums that debuted in 1984?
Here's a pretty comprehensive (not to mention alphabetized!) list that I pulled off of Wikipedia. Included are trailblazers such as Madonna's "Like a Virgin," Run D.M.C.'s self-titled debut album, The Smiths' "The Smiths," Prince's "Purple Rain," and "Born in the USA," which the boss dropped that year.* 1984 - Van Halen* 1984 (For the Love of Big Brother) - Eurythmics* About Face - David Gilmour* Agent Provocateur - Foreigner* Alf - Alison Moyet (solo debut)* All Fired Up - Fastway* All Over the Place - The Bangles* All the Rage - General Public* All Those Wasted Years - Hanoi Rocks* Animal Grace - April Wine* Animalize - Kiss* A Private Heaven Sheena Easton* Arena (live) - Duran Duran* The Art of Defense - Nona Hendryx* The Ascension - Glenn Branca* Aural Sculpture - The Stranglers* Bachman-Turner Overdrive - Bachman-Turner Overdrive* Back and Forth - Skinny Puppy* Bad Attitude - Meat Loaf* Balls to the Wall - Accept* Bananarama - Bananarama* Begegnungen - Eno Moebius Roedelius Plank* Berserker - Gary Numan* The Best of Kansas - Kansas* Beverly Hills Cop (soundtrack) - Various Artists* Bewitched - Andy Summers & Robert Fripp* Big Bam Boom - Hall & Oates* The Blitz - Krokus* Body & Soul - Joe Jackson* Bon Jovi - Bon Jovi* Born in the U.S.A. - Bruce Springsteen* Box of Frogs - Box of Frogs* Breaking Curfew - Red Rider* Breaking Hearts - Elton John* Building the Perfect Beast - Don Henley* Burning Oil - Skeletal Family* Caf Bleu - The Style Council* Camouflage - Rod Stewart* The Catch - Nazareth* Cats Without Claws - Donna Summer* Caught in the Act - Styx* Centipede - Rebbie Jackson* Chicago 17 - Chicago* Climate of Hunter - Scott Walker* Condition Critical - Quiet Riot* Couldn't Stand the Weather - Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble* Dali - Dalida* A Dancing Foot and a Praying Knee Don't Belong on the Same Leg - Scattered Order* Dancing on the Edge - Lita Ford* Dead Can Dance - Dead Can Dance* Defenders of the Faith - Judas Priest* Deia...Vu - Kevin Ayers* Desert Moon - Dennis DeYoung* Discovery - Mike Oldfield* Double Nickels on the Dime - Minutemen* Dream Street - Janet Jackson* Dreamtime - The Cult* The Dungeons Are Calling (EP) - Savatage* E2-E4 - Manuel Gttsching* Eden - Everything But The Girl* Eyes Of Innocence - Miami Sound Machine* Family Man - Black Flag* Fantastic Boney M. - Boney M.* First Strike - Def Leppard* First Two 7"s on a 12" - Minor Threat* Fistful of Metal - Anthrax* The Flat Earth - Thomas Dolby* Forever Young - Alphaville* Fried - Julian Cope* From Her to Eternity - Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds* From the Promised Land - Play Dead* From The Promised Land (remix) - Play Dead* Give Em' The Axe EP - Lizzy Borden* Give My Regards to Broad Street - Paul McCartney* The Glamorous Life - Sheila E.* Gone Fishin' - Flipper* Grace Under Pressure - Rush* Great White (band) - Great White (band)* Guitars, Cadillacs, Etc., Etc. - Dwight Yoakam (debut)* Hajimemashite (How Do You Do) - Miyuki Nakajima* Hard to Hold - Rick Springfield* Hatful of Hollow - The Smiths* Haunting the Chapel EP - Slayer* Heart Don't Lie - LaToya Jackson* Heartbeat City - The Cars* High 'N' Dry - Def Leppard (re-Release)* Hits out of Hell - Meat Loaf* The Honeydrippers: Volume One - Robert Plant* Horizen - Jade Warrior* How Will the Wolf Survive? - Los Lobos* Hyaena - Siouxsie and the Banshees* I Often Dream of Trains - Robyn Hitchcock* Icon - Icon (debut album)* In Rock We Trust - Y&T* Inside the Fire - Rita Coolidge* In the Studio - The Specials* Intellectuals Are The Shoeshine Boys Of The Ruling Elite - Killdozer* In the Long Grass - The Boomtown Rats* Into the Gap - Thompson Twins* Isolation - Toto* It's My Life - Talk Talk* Kalimba de Luna - 16 Happy Songs - Boney M.* Keep Moving - Madness* L.A.
