Your First Record

[salexander867]

Actually, one of my first records was a 78, but it was too long ago to remember the artist (parents bought it for me).
The first one a actually remember purchasing was Kiss Destroyer in '76. This was followed by Love Gun in '77. For those that weren't around in those days, record albums used to come with cool stuff on the inside. Love Gun came with a little pop gun inside. I wonder how much that would be worth on eBay today.

Interestingly Destroyer was also the last album I bought. I found an un-opened copy about 7 years ago and still have it in the original plastic wrap.

And did you shoot anyone with it yet?

Nope, not yet.

Down here in Texas, we only use our guns whenever kindness fails....

Here in Germany we use them only for sports ... OK ... but sports is defined differently depending on where you go

The first record I bought was Styx - Grand Illusion back in 1977.



Its definately not my style today, but at the time it was on the charts.

I was 17 at the time.

So many, so long ago. This is one of the first, if not the first:



(long - 2 parts)

In a Gadda Da Vida Part One-Iron Butterfly

Legend has it that the title was to be "In the Garden of Eden" but they were too stoned to say sing that. Could be.

My first album that I bought with my own money was Asia with the song "Sole Survivor." I was probably 12 or 13 years old.
