the first vinyl record i bought with my hard earned paper route money was ac/dc – back in black. my friends older brother had it, and it just knocked my socks off.
the first CD i bought was ‘quadrophenia’ (sp?) by The Who.
First vinyl album I got as a birthday present was "Alle 13 goed vol. 2", one of those quite terrible hit compilations….
First vinyl album I bought was Lou Reed’s ‘Transformer’, second one was Kraftwerk’s ‘Radio Activity’
Don’t remember exactly what my first cd was, kept on buying vinyl for a long long time (and still do buy some vinyl today…)
First vinyl : Shocking Blue / Mighty Joe (single)
First vinyl : The red double / The Beatles (LP)First cd: Sgt Peppers lonely heartsclubband / the Beatles. ( it was in 1987 and I didn’t even had a cd-player yet, but I wanted that album to be my firtst; second was Donald Fagen / The nightfly)
First cassette was filled with things I recorded from the radio using a microfoon. I was 13
heh………….i’m starting to vaguely recall some bits of my youth, and i think the first 45 i remember buying was (don’t make fun…) joan jett’s version of "i love rock and roll"……
Vinyl:? I had a bunch of records when I was 3 or 4
Tape:Dire Straits-Brothers In Arms
45:Ace Frehley?Abba?Bee Gees?
CD:Genesis-Selling England By Pound("One of the fucking best records ever made"-Bob Pollard
)I never bought an lp or 45 with my own money – but the first tape I bought was the Real Thing by Faith No More and I’m pretty sure the first cd(s) was the White Album.
…the first cassestte i bought for my walkman, comedy is that i still use a walkman regularly, was well it was two i guess; Tears for Fears, Songs from the the Big Chair, and Mr. Mister, Everybody Wants to rule the World, my first actual tape was Starship Knee Deep in the Hoopla, but that was a present as was my walkman…
The first single (45) I bought was a colored Mudhoney one. I can’t remeber if it was This Gift, or another one. I had collected so many thoughout the years its hard to remember what I got and when.
I think the first cassette I ever bought with my own money was either Motley Crue’s Shout at the Devil or Ozzy Osbourne’s Bark at the Moon. I was like in 4th grade, and at the time they were the shit. As a matter of fact I still throw on Shout at the Devil from time to time, funny how its a bit more comical now.

I gotta admit I like some of the Tears For Fears one.Head Over Heels is one of the best pop songs of the `80s 
The first album I ever bought for myself was Elvis’s 20 Greatest Hits on cassette. I think I was 6 or 7. I wore out my parents’ Neal Diamond record when I was a toddler. I believe my first ever CD was Elton John’s Tumbleweed Connection or The Beach Boys – Party-O-Tracks.
When I was a little kid, I had some ABBA lps and a copy of the Beatles ’67-’70 that my parents gave me for Christmas when I was about 7 or 8. Sometime between 9 & 10 I acquired a copy of Never Mind the Bollocks (I don’t remember how, but I know for sure my folks didn’t get it for me), then a girl in 5th or 6th grade gave me a copy of the Clash’s first album that her older brother had bought but decided he didn’t like (I still have that copy). I remember buying a used copy of PiL’s Second Edition when I was in 7th grade (still have that one, too), so that might be the first lp I actually bought with my own money — after that, it was a steady stream of punk comps, GBH, Discharge, Stiff Little Fingers lps & 7-inchers in 8th grade, and on and on and on. Around that time I bought cut-outs of Killing Joke’s first album and the Professionals only lp, both of which I still have, and in really great condition too, even though I played them lots.
I used to make tapes of my dads lps to listen to on my walkman- they sounded pretty shitty … I do have a copy of More Light on vinyl- I think I won it somehow
Soundgarden’s" Down on the Upside" was the first CD
The first tape was probably Bad by Michael Jackson (hey, it was the 80s!)Since my Dad was of the 70s generation, he kept all of his vinyl and raised me on Hendrix, Zepplin, Fleetwood Mac, and Neil Young. All of my love for music can be attributed to those nights of listening to my dad’s record player with him and playing "name that song" on the radio when I was as young as three years old..
When I got old enough to buy vinyl for myself it was Unwound’s "Fake Train" that came first.
) of Glenn Campbell’s Rhinestone Cowboy. One of my oldest memories is me playing air guitar (lead and rhythm) to that turd….
