Your First Record

[Double H]

Hmmm, good question.
I believe the first LP I actually purchased on my own was Boston (self-titled).
The first 7" I purchased was either Prince - 1999, or Michael Jackson - Billie Jean. However, I believe I had cassette tapes way before that.

Now the first album I listened to is Beatles - White Album, which was quintessential in my musical upbringing.

I collect Joy Division and early New Order vinyl.

The first one I ever bought was ' You'll have to 'scuse the video though. I bought it around 1972/73 when it was re-released I think - I'd have been about 10.

Yeah, a few years behind its release, but whatever.
