First Taste is the debut album by American band Potliquor released in November 1970.
While First Taste never quite broke onto the Billboard album chart, the magazine did report in mid-October/early November 1970 that "Riverboat", a single from the album was being played at the University of Wisconsin radio station[1] and at Queens College in Queens, New York[2] and again in early November that the album was receiving airplay by radio stations run by Southern Methodist University and the University of Minnesota.[3] They also posted a notice later in the month that the GRT Corporation, the corporate owner of Janus Records, was generating "much excitement behind its debut album by Potliquor, First Taste" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.[4]
