Your first record album?Follow

#1 Apr 22 2013 at 9:11 PM Rating: Good
The talk about that album cover had me thinking about that first album and the cover. I'm certain most
of you do remember your first record ambum and what the cover looked like? I definately remember
my first one. It may suprise most of you. This is the first one I bought and I still have it.

Now I wonder how many of you were suprised by my first record album?

I've never actually owned any physical music media. By the time I was interested in music, "free" availability on the internet was a big thing, napster, etc. Then by the time that all went away, free legal alternatives emerged.

I avoided paying for music until well into high school (cool way of saying I was a nerd), then I bought this. Which is funny because it really was a pretty poor album overall, and I've barely got any play out of it for a very long time. Still memorable for what it was though.

In before someone links to an actual album?

This.

I don't have too many as I only just recently was given a record player, but I have some classics(Pink Floyd, The Who, Alan Parsons Project) as well. I'm not exactly obsessed with having records, I'm really only planning to buy my favourites rather than just some of everything I like. Thinking of ordering this next month.

The first album I owned I can't remember, something that was popular in the Netherlands in the late 90's I'm guessing, could be Aqua? The first album I bought with my own money I do remember (and still have) which was De Heideroosjes' It's A Life album, that's also the band that got me interested in heavier music.

The first album I got was by Lou Monte and it was a gift from my grandparents.

I was about 6 when my dad got a new stereo and gave me his old record player, Sesame Street was my favorite album. I had a few Kenny Rogers 45's too, I wasn't the most discerning kid as far as music taste.

A few years later I remember we sold the farm and our livestock, and moved into town. I used some of my money to buy a little boombox so I could listen to the radio and record songs to tape, so I still wasn't buying music yet.

In high school walkman/sony were finally making affordable CD players, and I was in love with Natalie Merchant at the time so I would buy all the 10,000 maniacs albums.

When my dad passed away (I was 19 or 20), I reinherited his stereo and his LP collection, which we had both been increasing from yard sales and thrifstores, so there were a few in there that I really like (but I wont play them to keep them from getting worse), like Boston, Iron Butterfly... and odly the Culture Club. My dad was a huge fan and had all their 80's albums.

Unfortunately my first album that I actually owned was Alan Jackson on cassette. Even though I'm not a fan of country anymore I still really enjoy that tape.

Ah yeah... I'm sure most people did this in the late 80s, early 90s, but man that brings back memories. So many ZRock (our only current rock station at the time) recorded tapes laying around. I still have em in a drawer by my bed.

I remember finally saving enough for one of the boomboxes with the double tape deck. I'd hit Record when I left for school in the morning, and when I got home, I'd spend however long listening to the tape and copying over the songs I wanted to a mixtape. There'd usually be that one song I'd really want, and it would always end up being cut off at the end of the tape or not on it at all, and I'd just try again the next day. You could spend weeks trying to get a certain song from start to finish without a DJ talking over it or it getting cut off by the recording tape. Smiley: lol

Technically, I'm pretty sure my first record was one of these dealies. Guess that doesn't count as an album though; I was more into singles back then.

I had records as a kid but I never bought any. I remember having a couple of Monkees records. The first physical media that I bought with my own dough was Beastie Boys License to Ill on cassette circa 1985. I don't remember exactly what my first CD was but I think it was likely Primus or some metal album.

My sisters had all the LPs. The first thing I purchased with my own money that wasn't a Disney soundtrack was the cassette tape release of the "St Elmo's Fire" soundtrack.

The first CD I bought was orchestral remixes of Enya music.

Edit: Oh man, forgot I actually DID have one album just for myself. I had the Fraggle Rock LP Smiley: grin

Patrick Muldoon and his Magic Balloon. I loved being able to listen to just my favorite parts (over and over) and skip the boring parts.

Around 13 I got my first very own stereo with a turn table and I went out and bought Doobie Brothers Capt. and Me

Lets see if I can not hit CTRL+ R again...
It was around 1995-1997 when I got a portable CD player (was my Father's and it was old, but awesome). I was 10-12(?) and had been driving my father ballz-freaking-nuts because I could "stand to listen to rap music" (wtf was wrong with me!? Super white kid in a town of 99% whites, in a half-racist family!? . . .).
I remember: The Verve Pipe's Villains, KoRn's Life is Peachy, and ICP's Riddle Box were all bought around the same time. I still have all 3 CDs.

Not an album, but my first 7" single was Synchronicity II by The Police back in '83. I did get all of my mom's albums from the '70s, and I remember diggin' one of the Led Zepplin albums that had an insert you could spin to change the images on the cover.

I also re-call some Mr. Bill square flimsy that came with a Mr. Bill book, it was a clear red color.

Not proud of that one...
