zachd33 Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 I know I can remember the first album I bought, It was Guns N' Roses Appitite for Destruction. Everytime I hear a song from that album it brings back great memories. Great album. So the question is what was the first cd, tape, 8-track, album, or whatever they were called when u bought them, that you bought. And how do you feel when you listen to it?
Tim Plains Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 Me too! Appetite was my first tape. Aerosmith Pump was my first CD. Still listen to both.
Homz Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 Sound track to "Saturday Night Fever" And I'll kindly ask you to never mention this again.
L5Larry Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 Way too long ago to remember, but I would venture to guess it was probably the Beatles "Let It Be". I think they had already announced their breakup so it was known that it would be their last album. Still have it, and all my other vinyl for that matter.
surfpup Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 KISS - Alive .... in 1975 I believe. Cost like $6 since it was a double!
ChanMan Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 Black Sabbath : Paranoid- 1st LP album Rush : 2112 & Hemispheres (at the same time) - cassettes. no clue what CD....
Homz Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 Come on! Am I the only one who started out with a lame disco album?
retrosurfer1959 Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 The first album (45's before that) was a double purchase Ted Nugent and Seals and Crofts Unborn Child. I know very different but it was 1975 and I had Two main goals that year since I was in the eight grade, first was playing rock on a guitar which Nugent helped with and second was getting somewhere with the first "SERIOUS" girlfriend and Seals and Croft helped with that. :D Edit Surfpup - Kiss alive was the third probably a month later I used to fall asleep listening to kiss with headphones on - **** no wonder I'm deaf!!!

How long ago did you buy your first album? :D The first albums I bought were for a membership to a record club so there were several of them. I can only remember a couple of them; one was Johnny Horton's greatest hits, another was Peter, Paul and Mary in Concert. That would have been in 1962.
retrosurfer1959 Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 North to Alaska a real classic try not singing alo ng to that when you hear it
rocketman Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 I know it was a Beatles album that was given to me, but I can't remember which one.
RichCI Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 First album that my parents bought for me: The Beatles 1962-1966 (The Red Album) First album that I bought with my own money: KISS Alive
saturn Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 The first album I remember my mom getting me was Beach Boys Endless Summer. I actually can't remember the last time I've heard a Beach Boys song, but I'm sure I get very nostalgic when I hear one. The first album I bought for myself was probably a KISS album. Maybe Double Platinum? Or maybe Van Halen II?
Cruznolfart Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 North to Alaska a real classic try not singing alo ng to that when you hear it Too true. That and The Battle of New Orleans. Catchy stuff.
deepblue Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 KISS - Alive .... in 1975 I believe. Cost like $6 since it was a double! Yep!...me too. I still have it.
djroge1 Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 Come on! Am I the only one who started out with a lame disco album? Mine was not lame disco, but close - Elton John's greatest hits (I'm emarassed to say). Probably the first or one of the first albums I bought when I started earning my own money was something like Al DiMeola's "Land of the Midnight Sun" or something by Jean Luc Ponty or Chicago at Carnige Hall. On the other hand, my first 8-track tapes were - The Yardbirds with Eric Clapton and Led Zep II - I hated that it switched tracks in the middle of Ramble on; I still wait for the switch every time I hear it.
HeadCase Posted November 16, 2008 Posted November 16, 2008 My oldest brother got me 3 for my B-Day; Queen - (Queen's first album) Judas Priest - Unleashed in the East UFO - Force It All LPs - I'm forever grateful.
dpgumby62 Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 My first album was Heart - Little Queen. The opening riff of Barracuda still makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. To expand this theme further, what was the first concert/gig you ever saw? To get the ball rolling, my first was The Pretenders at The Capital Theatre in Sydney in 81 or 82, the original line up.
