Joan Armatrading: Joan Armatrading (1976)
It has always seemed odd to me that a singer or band would release a self-titled (eponymous, if you prefer) album that wasn't a debut. Joan's third album is self-titled. Genesis waited until its twelfth release to use the simple title of Genesis.
Joan Armatrading released her first record in 1972 and her last in 2012. That means she has been in the biz for ages and a lot longer than some better known singers.
Her music is somewhat difficult to categorize, containing elements of rock, jazz, blues, and folk.
