Sweet Baby James by James Taylor was my first album, it cost me $3.99 a lot of money then!!!!
I wore out the vynal record, got the cassettee, wore that one out now have the CD. Plus all the other James Taylor records.
My first records were a three Elvis 45's which had belonged to my mother. I must have been less than 8 years old 'cos we were living in Brisbane at the time.
OMG I remember as a child knowing the words to every single ABBA song, we used to sing into the handles of our skipping ropes ROFLMAO
The first CD I bought would have been Garbage's self-titled release from 1995. It's their best one they put out before going the commercial crap music way.
Vinyl records hmmm.. they're so old that weren't the titles of the album written in hieroglyphics??? haha j/k
The first one I ever bought with my own money was by the Bay City Rollers ......cost me $5, and I thought it was just fantastic.....until the day I thought I would entertain the neighbors by playing the album full bore on my portable record player on the front verandah........a gust of wind picked up the vinyl record mid-song and smashed it into the steel railings and it broke into 3 pieces ! Karma for apalling music taste - maybe, or payback by the neighbors??? Either way, I only had it for a week before its untimely death, and I never, ever tried to play the records outside again!!!!
Broni
and Lana, we used our hairbrushes instead of the skipping rope!!!
My first record was 1988 into the groove (it was the so fresh of the 80's) I was 11 years old and it was given to me as a birthday present....
A few years later I stole Bob Marley and the Wailers off my Dad (mind you I'd been telling him for years that it was CRAP) he never lets me forget that!!! By the way I scrathed the hell out of it and 13 years later I still owe him a new one. Maybe for his bithday in June
