"best"? Ask 10 people and you'll get 11 opinions.
Most influential has to be The Beatles, though, love em or hate em.
Best album by s British band? I think Dare by the Human League is a candidate.
Another outsider might be Employment by the Kaiser Chiefs. I was in a record shop (remember them?) and it was playing and after 3 or 4 tracks I asked what it was an bought it.
I placed it yesterday and it still sounds fresh and varied.

For the genre, it's a good call. The opening to track #1 is perfect - thunder, rain, tolling bells, and a killer guitar riff that uses just two notes (G & C#) creating the "Devil's Interval".However, another vote here for Dark Side Of The Moon. The chord progressions on "Breathe" and "Great Gig In The Sky", the guitar solos on "Time" and "Money", the lyrics throughout are just wonderful.

The debut album by Black Sabbath called Black Sabbath with the opening track called Black Sabbath....is there another case of this happening ever?(It was a written in question in Mojo years ago and I don't think an example was ever found, curious to know if anyone knows one)

possibly one of the most influential albums of all time?
Sadly no. If there's one thing that people agree on it's not music, Black Sabbath indeed, pffft.
