Genesis - Duke

[djerome]

who had a fisher price or children's turntable? i was getting empire strikes back and smurf 7"s before i bought real music. maybe i was just a lucky kid.

[blunt]

my first lp was depeche mode- construction time again. think i was around 9 at this time and i had to use my moms player to record it on tape because i only had a cassette recorder. but everything counts :)

[Loz]

[stitchey]

xtc - drums and wires. came the next day effter i bought a turntable with my own earned money. before that, it was "getting" as many tapes as i could. i just pulled a bunch of lps out of the racks at that time (although knowing what i was doing..) and xtc was the one i bought.

That was the first album I actually 'chose' myself, although I didn't actually go out and buy it. I remember I wanted a Dead Kennedys record when I was about 8.. because my cousin was a big fan.. I remember hating it when I actually heard it though ;) (I've seen the light since though, naturally)

First album I actually went into a shop and bought was a Jimi Hendrix compilation, I'd never actually heard any Hendrix either.. so I could have easily bought a Madonna LP or something instead.. Lucky I guess!

[djerome]

i remember the first time we (my brother and i) bought sl-1200's, he thought the pitch bar made the music "sound better" ... it was by sheer accident that he mixed two records together, and ever since than it had become much clearer.

[thembuzz]

CLASS!

such an awesome album. my favourite side was side 4, despite Genesis. i love every single track on Now 1. strangely, i never bothered with any other Nows.

i think i was bought that for christmas. at the time i was also listening to a lot of KC and the Sunshine Band, Thompson Twins and Tears for Fears. so i think it would have been one of those i bought for myself first.

what year was Now 1 released. christmas 1983/4?

[...valta...]

I'm not sure actually...

my first cassete was -
Michael Jackson on the 1st side
& Mc. Hammer on the 2nd.

my first CD was some kinda gangsta-rap compilation... with Ice T, Onyx, Cypress Hill, House Of Pain, etc....

and my first on vinyl was... mmmm.... I don remember which one was earlier... DJ Slip's "Slipotika" or the Dave Clarke's "Different Seasons".........

[versis]

@guignol: classic! =)

i always recorded radio to tape when i was young or got records as gifts, so i assume my first buy was chicane - offshore. still a great tune i think.
oh and my first vinyl was ilsa gold - up!

(maybe i dispel my memory of buying some blue system album when i was veeery young.. ;-) )

[tania]

was definitely "the cure" but i cant remember which one.. i was obsessed with them so i did end up buying all their albums...how embarassing...

[Sheridan]

metallica: kill 'em all

[Penny]

depeche mode - speak and spell

[mlexicon]

run dmc tougher than leather



first record bought was axel f from the beverly hills cop soundtrack on 45 at the mall

[bitch one]

yeah it was now that's what i call music vol 1 and the hits vol 1 - i forget which first. both at the same time maybe

tho before that i think i my mate gave me a copy of jean michel jarre's equinox on tape and i used to listen to it on my sony walkman aged about 11

[Patrick]

The Police - Zenyatta Mondatta

[thomas hooked]

i was a prodigious home taper. starting with parents eurythmics, bowie and beatles records before moving onto taping radio shows fairly religiously. i don't think i actually shelled out any money for music until i was 12-13 when i bought a Dinosaur Jr CD off my friend Dave.

[Ladytron]

when i was young my father used to buy to me LP's and singles every weekend. so late 70's one of the first single he bought was

Hot Chocolate - Every 1'st Is Winner
http://images.google.com/images?q=tbn:1mqoOrZasBcJ:imag es.tradera.com/933/3852933_1.jpg

[Loz]

of course, the first bit of vinyl I bought was Big C - What's the SP?

How cool am I now?

[autorun]

Kraftwerk - Electric Cafe and of course i was so stupid i sold it few years ago :(

[thesnailsshow]

Damn !! "NOW that's what I call music Vol 1" was my very first album too !!

But, I think I'd say the very very first that really got me into music was FSOL - Accelerator.

[7875]

Billy Idol--Rebel Yell was the first album i ever bought.

[TheWasp]

Michael Jackson _ bad

first album i really buzzed off was Happy Mondays - squirrel and g-man

[r_v]

michael jackson - bad
tiffany - tiffany
u2 - the joshua tree

but the first album i ever owned was

the bangles - a different light

which i was given on cassete as a present

[Mirsha]

The first record album I bought was the compilation of tracks picked by Hardfloor for !K7. The first proper album I ever bought was... Erm I don't remember, it would have probably been something like misc dance tracks from the past compilation volume 32 or such similair. Definately not a Now album though as I never bought any of them, just got them as gifts at holidays.

[Jonny 5]

i got the magic flute as a present from my piano techer when i was 10. bo selecta!

[Ava]

first album - micheal jackson - BAD

this is quite embarrsing - but the first techno album i got was Utah Saints!

then FSOL

then thankfully i discovered autechre, aphex and warp

then hard techno (beyer et al)

then finally the wonky styles

actually i really want to listen to utah saints now. i wonder if i still have it? there's a great cj bolland mix on one of their singles

lost in the silverbox? the 2x12" is worth its weight in gold I'd say...

[grobelaar]

Actually - The Pet Shop Boys
