Your first record......

Can you remember you very first record/album......
Mine was an Eric Carmen LP....It was given to me by my sisters boyfriend,they were babysitting me at the time and i think he wanted rid of me

 

First Single I bought was "The Boys are Back in town" Thin Lizzie

Not sure about the first album, a bit blurred with pinching stuff off my Brother.

 

The first record I ever bought was......

This



But in my defence, I took it back to woolies, told them I'd bought it for a friend and they already had it, and exchange it for a version of The Eve of the War, one of the tracks from Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds.

EDIT: It took some finding, but this is the actual version I bought. Its a lot more cheesy than I'd remembered.

 

My first single is probably best forgotten. My first album, which I still have was A Beard of Stars - Tyrannosaurus Rex.

 

From the sublime to the ridiculous.....my first single was The Wombling Song , my first album was Dark Side of the Moon.

 

• Heartbreak Hotel - Elvis ( 45 rpm HMV with the dog by the gramaphone)
• Bad penny Blues by Humphrey Lyttleton. I used to tinkle the ivories to accompany the muted trumpet. I still love it and always whistle along with it - not very ladylike or refined!

 

Somebody bought me this one

 

Angelo..brotherhood of man

 

I got my first cassette tape single quite late in my life really (at 11 years old), mine was Oasis - Stand By Me back in 1997, however I used to listen (and inherit) my sisters Now That's What I Call Music 28 tape (and that's the old Now 28 from circa 1993, not the new one for those under 20).

The first songs I consciously remember liking where Lisa Loeb - Stay (in 1992), Neneh Cherry - Manchild (1990) and Chicago - Hard to say I'm sorry, which is an old song by was re-realeased circa 1991. Also Richard Marx - Hazard (and Right here waiting for you).. other songs I loved as a young boy.

I had a strange taste in music at 5 years old, but remember it well!

I feel young.. i was using Cassette Tapes!!

 

I can't remember but probably Cliff Richard. I was into him and Sis into Elvis.

Strange how I now live 20 minutes from Cliff's home and vinyard here and good friends of our live next door to his manager.

 

My first was "Rhythm of the Rain" by the Cascades. Really!

Admittedly this year, I didn't want reminding.

 

Record: The Boy With The Thorn In His Side by The Smiths (when I was about 16)

CD: Probably something by 5ive when I was in my pre-teens

and cassette: Probably something embarrassing and to stop my sisters buying..

 

This was mine...., sorry fellow GC forumites I'm guilty as charged , please forgive me, I was only about 5 or 6 years old
