Simple. Do you remember the first album you ever bought or at least the first that really had an impact in your life. Maybe its just the album that made you want to go get more of that particular genre and your taste and preferences in music was formed.....

I remember some albums that I received as gifts, but I didn't even know of the bands until I saw the records:

Kansas - Point of Know Return

ELO - Out of the Blue

 

The first one I bought myself may have been Cheap Trick's Heaven Tonight, although (do I even want to admit this?) I clearly remember buying the Bay City Roller's 45 of Saturday Night.

I sure do. I've had other albums but this was the first "run the hell out the door and don't stop running til it's on the player and the needle drops" record.

 

The kid in your original post is exactly what I looked like... in cartoon form. I'm actually three dimensional.

The very first record I ever bought myself was a 45 - Rag Doll by The Four Seasons.

 

The very first album I ever insisted my poor mother buy for me was the soundtrack from the Broadway play Peter Pan.

 

The very first album I purchased for myself was Meet The Beatles.

 

 

Correction: It wasn't Rag Doll. It was Walk Like A Man.

Rubber Soul-The beatles.

 

The album started my musical obsession. I knew Rush before the Beatles. but Rubber Soul impacted me in a way i can't describe. I wore that puppy out. and it still has a special place in my collection. When i hear it.....i'm7 again and still Enthralled.

My dad had this album and I remember listening to it a lot, that one and Sgt Pepper. I think I actually scratched his Sgt Pepper album from listening to it too much... either that or hitting the record player with a baseball while it was playing.

Those shoes!

 

I used to have a pair of those, but they were purple. Purple patent leather, with little eyelets of lavender suede around the base of them.

If I recall correctly the first 8 track I had was Paranoid. I also remember a Montrose 8 track but I can't recall which one......

I had a cool Aunt that got me into good music early. ABitW was all over the radio (early 1980 I believe) and I had an uncle that had Dark Side which I had listened to and really liked all the sound effects (lol). My mom agreed to match my allowance money so I could get the LP. While sonically this was a pretty amazing album, it was so depressing and above my level of comprehension, it amazes me that I stuck with it. I loved Floyd pretty much as my top band (listened to Wish you were here along with Dark Side - and later come to love Animals, Meddle, etc eventually seeing Floyd live in 87 and 94). It wasn't until early 1982 along with MTV that my extreme air drumming skills (later translated to real drumming skills) were recognized and Rush became my everything...

I was five years old and used to mime guitar with a tennis racket along with Hendrix. My parents decided they better buy me a guitar

I can't for the life of me remember the first one I bought, let alone the last (it's been a long time since I bought one), but ASOH was the first one I listened to.

The Beatles - Rock'n'Roll Music was the first for me and the one that made a big impact was Black Sabbath from Black Sabbath.
