I used to make my own collection cassettes, yes:cassettes! I had the rec and play-buttons and the pause pressed down, at home waiting for me who was running like hell through the snow towards home after school. The damned rock-radio always started on time, not giving a 'hhit about the little creature struggling the ice and snow. The first I bought with money was purely because I liked the cover. Hanoi Rocks. And the cover didn't lie. Self destruction blues is a fantastic rock album. And the band had me hooked for years. I had their poster in the ceiling of my room.

The first album I remember buying was "Business as Usual" by Men at Work. I loved the song Who Can it Be Now?, turned out the whole album was pretty good in a "new-wave-lots-of-senthisizers kind of way.
However, the first album I was given, along with my first record player, was "Kiss Alive II." That thing rocked my 8-year-old nuts off.

Well, the first album I ever bought myself was Janet Jackson's Janet. I still have it and I still listen to it. It reminds me of sixth grade soccer games. Oh, the good ol' days.

I think the first pre-recorded anything I bought was Men at Work's third album, Two Hearts. I'm pretty sure I bought the only copy sold in North America. I had it up until a few months ago, when I finally donated a ton of old records to Goodwill.
Looking over the above responses, I wish I'd've been cool enough to have bought something like the Dead Kennedys my first time around. |

Then I bought Pink Floyd -Dark side of the moon and played it over and over and over.

First album was one my parents gave me - Rubber Soul by the Beatles. The first I bought was A Night at the Opera by Queen. Still have both somewhere in a box in the basement!

I'm dead serious about this; my very first album, at the age of 12 was Dave Brubeck "Time out". Of course it was vinyl, it was 1959 after all. It was Monaural, I only had a mono record player. I still have a copy, on CD; it sounds pretty good in Dolby Pro-Logic, but I loved it just as much in monaural.

At age 6, my babysitter turned me on to Rubber Soul by the Beatles. After that, at my request, my parents bought me the album and continued to buy me Beatles records until the band split when I was 10.

In one fell swoop, I bought the Beatles' red and blue "best of" compilations and <i>Live at the Hollywood Bowl</i> on vinyl at the age of twelve. I still have them and, needless to say, I still love the band and their music.
