What was the first record (showing my age lol) or CD that you ever bought??

"The Wall" of Pink Floyd. I was only 7 years old but I loved the song "Another brick in the wall" so I sacrificed my pocket money to buy their album. I was so proud when I did it and walked all the way home with a big smile on my face holding the album like a treasure in my arms. :) ;)

This One.
I bought it in 1977 with my first paycheck.
The album cost $7.99.

Diane Ross - I'm Still Waiting

I remember when
I was five and you were ten, boy
You knew that I was shy
So you teased and made me cry
But I loved you
Then one day you came
You told me you were leaving
You gave your folks the blame
And made me cry again
When you said
Little girl
Please don't wait for me
Wait patiently for love
Someday it will surely come
Ooh, little girl
Please don't wait for me
Wait patiently for love
Someday it will surely come
And I'm still waiting
Ooh, I'm waiting
Ooh, still waiting
I'm just a fool
Ooh, I'm a fool
(I'm just a fool to keep waiting)
To keep waiting
(I'm just a fool)
For you
(I'm just a fool)
Ooh, I'm waiting
(I'm just a fool)
I'm still waiting
(I'm just a fool to keep waiting)
For love
(I'm just a fool)
For you
(I'm just a fool)
Then someone finally came
He told me that he loved me
I put him off with lies
He could see I had no eyes
So he left me once again alone
Like a child without her playmate
I had to face the truth
I was still in love with you
But you said:
Little girl
Please don't wait for me
Wait patiently for love
Someday it will surely come
Ooh, little girl
Please don't wait for me
Wait patiently for love
Someday it will surely come
And I'm still waiting
Love has never shown his face
Since the day you walked out that door
You filled my life with empty space
Come back
Can't you see it's you I'm waiting for
Don't you know I'm waiting
(I'm just a fool to keep waiting)
I'm waiting for love
For you, I miss you
(I'm just a fool to keep waiting)
I'm waiting
(I'm just a fool)
Come on back, boy
(I'm just a fool)
Come back, come back, come back, boy
(I'm just a fool to keep waiting)
I need you
(I'm just a fool)
And I want you
(I'm just a fool)
That's what my friends say
(I'm just a fool)
I'm a fool
(I'm just a fool to keep waiting)

I used to buy 45's with God knows what money...couch money probably. I think Elton John Albums were the first ones i actually went into a store and bought by myself. before that I asked for Donny Osmond and the Beatles

Mine was actually tape after u stopped recording the radio I bought Peter Andre mysterious girl.
Lol

First album I ever bought was Def Leppard, Euphoria... Which was released 34 years prior. 🤷‍♀️

Eagles - Hotel California.

My first album was Madness7 by Madness, first single was Thriller by Michael Jackson. 80's music was the best! 🤣

Yours was on Now 5, I know I had it on Cassette lol

The first I ever asked my parents to buy was this, which I'm certain accompanied a program I watched on a Sunday on ITV.

The first I bought with my own money was [youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9c-P7BTvmQ0]

Dead Kennedys—Give Me Convenience or Give me Death on vinyl, I think it must’ve been the summer I turned 14

I don’t think I’ve ever purchased a CD in my entire life

But my favorite is The Beatles 1, I grew up listen to it

It was a 45 with my allowance money. “Charlie Brown” by the Coasters.

When I graduated primary school, I received a tape recorder and promptly went out and bought my first cassette with some of the money I was gifted.


I can’t remember what my first vinyl record was that I purchased, but I think it was probably Yes - Fragile.

U2 War, on Vinyl

Lips of an angel - Hinder

Nevermind

Ha Ha Said the Clown by Manfred Mann

Paul Young - he played my local pub about 25 years ago in a fun band he and Jamie Moses had put together.

You have good taste! Soundtrack to night shifts, and days on the road, an '80's icon.

Mine was Madness7 and I still have it on vinyl, completely unscratched! 👍
