What was the first record you ever bought?

[DAVID is my HERO]

In light of the 'I was Morrissey's roadie' article, what was the first record you ever bought?


For me, The Queen is Dead. I was 12. :cool:

[Alcoholic Afternoons]

As I already admitted in the other thread. At a Warehouse record store, with my own money. I was five or six, I think.

[prisoner77]

It was either Trail of the lonesome pine -Laurel and Hardy

or Calling occupants of interplanetary craft -The Carpenters

[nowherefast944]

mine was either beethoven's 9th symphony or spice girls.


i asked for and got beethoven's 9th but not after i bought spice girls.

you could count either

[Stoner Kebab]

i bought an anne murray casssette tape at a record town. i was 6 years old. and i liked her face. she looked like a nice lady.

then i bought the following singles at christmas

magic olivia newton john.

rock with you michael jackson

cars gary numan

i wanna be your lover prince



all at the same record town.

i also got a guinea pig for christmas
some kind of grown up shoes from a shoe store called kinney shoes.
they made noise on the pavement when i walked and i felt growned up.

[Stoner Kebab]

this was 1980. i was 6 going on 15.

[Pervomartovtsi]

probably it was a cassette from an argentinian homosexual band that sang fun songs...

[still I cling]

Make It Big by Wham!

I was 9, and George Michael was *so* dreamy.

[William4]

mine was this bohemian guy playing ukulele, acoustic guitar, african drums, and other tribal instruments.. i got the album when i went with my father to see him at some festival-type thing when i was about 7 (my parents are VERY boho). i wish i could remember who it was but the record snapped in half... one.. day.... when i... kind of..... threw it.:doh::o

[bogdana]

ive never bought a record, technically.
the first tape i ever bought all on my own was probably new kids on the block. there's no accounting for taste when you're 9.

[stephk817]

My first album was Fleetwood Mac's Rumours.

[JoyDiv007]

I think the 1st thing I bought was Duran Duran-Rio. I was 8 and a huge fan of thiers.

:o I liked NKOTB, but I was in Jr High. I went to a bunch of their concerts too :eek:

I already said this in the other thread; my first musical purchase that didn't involve Charlie Brown was the Karate Kid soundtrack. My excuse is that I was 6!

[joey]

http://cdn.last.fm/coverart/300x300/2046406-861183210.jpg

I still love this band and that album. The lead singer (Chris Conley) has mentioned really liking Morrissey's lyrics in a few interviews.

[Not Right in the Head]

:o I liked NKOTB, but I was in Jr High. I went to a bunch of their concerts too :eek:

Good god! I have a horror story about the NKOTB...

My firsts:
CD (1986): Beatles' Please Please Me
album/cassette (1983?): Men at Work, the one with "Land Down Under"
7" single (1984): Prince's "When Doves Cry", but when did the "Axel F Theme" come out? Maybe that was earlier.
12" single (1984): not sure; prolly Prince's "I Would Die 4 U"/"Another Lonely Christmas"
first paid download: can't remember; probably Moz's AOL live set

theo wir fahren nach Lodz - Vicky Leandros

actually me mum bought it, to annoy me, on familybirthdays, cause my
real name is theo

she always makes jokes about it, that Vicky was my fav. , she knew
I got upset

I can smile about it now, but at that time it was terrible

i never was really a single buyer, me brother was....but I remeber buying
'needles and pins'from Smokie for my Nephew's birtday

I can't remember something else buying when i was childhood class
[we have a very different schoolsystem than the USA]
WHEN i WAS 13, and in my 1 or 2nd class bought lust for life -Iggy pop
it was a giant hit during carnaval, punk was totally cool :cool:

The rise and fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars.

[cornelius blaze]

Single: A Town called Malice. The Jam.
LP. Too Rye Ay. Dexy's Midnight Runners.

I think it was Scoundrel Days by A-ha. Or, what is even worse, some album by Modern Talking... :o

[cornelius blaze]

Also, the 1st Albums that i bought when i had a real 1st job were:
The Stranglers: Aural Sculpture.
Talking Heads: Stop Making Sense.

So is it with pocket money or actually job wages....does it matter?

[Moonbeam]

Human League - Don't you want me

In light of the 'I was Morrissey's roadie' article, what was the first record you ever bought?

The first single I ever bought was Long Tall Glasses by Leo Sayer.
I must have been about 5 years old I think, somewhere in the early '70s. and Leo Sayer sang this song on a tv-show called Toppop (Dutch version of Top of the Pops).
The lyrics included some lines going: you know I can't dance, you know I can't dance. And he did this silly dance. Being the innocent child that I was, I imitated this dance in front of the television.
My parents wanted to buy the single for me and took me to the recordshop where I performed my silly dance for the man behind the counter and he immediately recognized it and laughed and handed me my first ever single! :D Ah... the good old days...

"Remember when we said: girl, please don't go...." :o
haha yes, I was the biggest NKOTB fan! When they were in my hometown my friends and I even waited in their hotel lobby to meet them. I got Jordan and Donnie's autographs. :eek: I guess once a fangirl, always a fangirl--it's just Moz now. :D

Well, I was a fangirl too but we had absolutely zero chance to see them live. :tears: Actually I don't really mind. I got to see Duran Duran when I was 10, so I was happy. :D

That's a Hungarian band, right??
Talking about Hungarian bands and records: I have a couple of records by a band called Bikini, do you know them? I bought them on holiday in Hungary about 20 years ago. And also went to one of their shows, I remember the crowd going absolutely mad! :guitar:

uhh yeah, you should be happy you never got to see NKOTB live. Tix were expensive! Good God what was I thinking??! :rolleyes: (I think it's about a million times cooler to say you saw Duran Duran anyway.) What's funny is that when I went to see "The Sixth Sense" I didn't even realize Donnie Wahlberg was the guy in the beginning of the movie who commits suicide.

Where's NRitH, I want to hear his "horror story!"

I was so impressed by the crowd's reaction that I bought all the records (3) I could find in a shop in Budapest.
I just checked and the price is still on them: 110 Forint.
I don't know how much that is nowadays, but back then it was about
1,50 euro or something.

Yes I wanna hear it!!! I don't care, I did go see them 2x in concert and had all their albums, but I refused to buy all that awful gear like hats, beach towels, etc they sold. It's embarrassing now, but hell, I was like 12-13 yrs old and I thought they were hot. :D

bump! Where is NRitH? I'm still waiting for the NKOTB horror story! :D

By the way, has anyone heard the latest news that those bitches are reforming? http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20174022,00.html
Weird. They didn't want to do it for VH1's Bands Reunited. :confused:

Aw, fuck, I hoped that you'd forgotten. I wish I could. OK, here goes.

Freshman year of college (1990), I worked at a drugstore. One of my coworkers, whom I'll call Rita (for "irritating"), was a senior in high school and had a disturbingly public crush on me--she bragged about it to our coworkers and her friends, and even paraded her family through the store to meet me. She was the WORLD'S BIGGEST NKOTB FAN, bar none--it's all she listened to or talked about. She was more of an annoyance than anything else, so I just shrugged her off most of the time. One night, though, she invited me to hang out with her at her high school's football game. I'd already rebuffed about a dozen of similar requests, so I figured that just one couldn't hurt, right? Wrong. Fast forward to the end of the football game. It just so happened that the rest of her family was out of town that night, so she invited me to spend the night at her place. So far, so bad. But nothing could have prepared me for the shock of seeing her bedroom--literally every square inch of walls, ceilings, floor, and furniture was covered with pics of the New Kids on the Block--thousands of photos. Let's fast forward some more, shall we? There is NOTHING more horrifying than waking up and being surrounded by thousands of NKOTB photos in a confined space. I got out of there as soon as I could, and pretty much had nothing to do with her after that.

And that's the story. There's an epilogue, but I'll save for another time.

HAHAAAAA Thanks, that just gave me the biggest laugh :D
Don't worry, I am not offended, I think I had one poster in my room and that's about it. I do like how you still "slept over" even though you were horrified ;) Did you do the nasty on a NKOTB comforter too? :eek:

Did Rita get shipped off to the nunnery after this? Or did she become an Irregular Regular and follow the NKOTB around the country?

[Not Right in the Head]

Did Rita get shipped off to the nunnery after this? Or did she become an Irregular Regular and follow the NKOTB around the country?

Well, that's kinda the epilogue. I quit the drugstore job soon afterwards and didn't hear from her for about 5 months. She sent me a very long letter that pleaded with me to explain what went wrong. She said that she'd totally thrown out all of her NKOTB (and Vanilla Ice!) stuff and had started listening to the bands that I liked at the time (guess which ones), had replaced her 80s hairspray 'do with something more "alternative", and pretty much tried to be like me (or someone that I'd like). It was so sad. Sadder than if she'd just stayed true to herself, as horrifying as that self was to me. :o

The problem is that I didn't really buy records, because in the Eastern block it wasn't very easy to buy Western music. So we copied each other's records on tapes. But I was a Duran Duran fan myself. I was in love with John Taylor. :o I saw their new vid, and he still looks hot. :guitar:

[Bassist-In-A-Tutu]

My first album was Paralel Lines by Blonide.... Am I showing my age!?? ;)

Still an all time fave album though. I'm guessing that was about 1979, not too sure.

1st CD purchase I ever made had four albums: The Joshua Tree - U2, Meat is Murder - The Smiths, Bugs Bunny (it was a collection of all the cartoon songs) and The Rolling Stones - Flashpoint. I remember my mother almost freaking out because CDs were $20 each at the time.

Well, I was about 7 when I discovered that all of the current songs that appeared on Top Of The Pops were actually available to buy in the shops... As the house was full of stuff like Glen Campbell, Matt Munro and Frank Sinatra... it was quite a surprise to me. To prove a point, me Mam went straight out and got David Soul's 'Silver Lady' for me. (I think it was for her too).
I played the absolute balls off my first vinyls... that's how I remember 'em! ;)

You know you're really old when you think of "Thriller" as "that new solo album by Michael". :rolleyes:

A 45 of "The Hustle"
My first twelve inch was a Sean Cassity album...

My cousins and I were obsessed with him for the longest time as children.

As I already admitted in the other thread. At a Warehouse record store, with my own money. I was five or six, I think.

NO WAY!!! I was about 14 and in LOVE with Eric. Damn how embarrassing. You are the MAN. :cool:

My very first album was, "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" at the Tower Records in San Diego. I remember being captivated by the sleeve and trying to understand what, "All The Young Girls Loved Alice" meant :rolleyes:

That was the first album I ever bought too!!:D
And I think the All The Young Girls Love Alice may be my favourite Elton John song. Though, when I was 13 I was obsessed with Bennie and The Jets.

What a nerd I am/was!:eek:
