With all these music threads lately it seems fitting to ask: " What was the first album you purchased ? "

The soundtrack to Heavy Metal ( on vinyl ) was my first.

A few years prior to that ( 7 or 8 years old ) I had some KISS albums that were given to me, but I think Heavy Metal was the first one I bought on my own.

first vinyl was:

 

[Westy]

Styx, Kilroy was here.

But in true poor white trash style it was recorded off of the radio. Local station would play complete albums late Sunday nights. Don't think I bought an album until I turned 15 and was gainfully employed. That Album was probably Justice For All.

Green Day's Dookie and Eve 6.

 

[rigidhack]

OK, here it goes...

I was in grade 3. I did better after that. But not much...

By the time I got off of vinyl, my musical tastes had improved. First cassette:

My first CD purchase was:

 

[Pesqueeb]

I bought, on cassette, California Girls by the Beach Boys, and Storm Front by Billy Joel. Probably about age 8 or so. Then the first two CD's I bought were Aerosmith, Get a Grip and The Beatles, Let it Be age 13 or 14 I would guess. I don't know If I've ever only bought one album at a time.

 

[j.les]

Hell Bent for Leather by Judas Priest on 8 track.

 

[jdcamb]

I stole Rush's 2112 and Aerosmiths Toys in the Attic on the same day from Record Theatre in Buffalo New York. I got caught by my mom with them and had to go down to the store with her and pay for them. The first one I purchased officially was Queens News Of the World

Sadly, yes... pretty much.

Sadly, yes... pretty much.

For your sake, at least get a haircut. No need letting everyone know what a dip**** you are from a 100 yards away. At least make them talk to you.
