What was the first album you bought with your own money? Where did you buy it from?

When I was 12 or 13 I earned a few bucks from doing some chores. I went to C.D. Warehouse and bought a used copy of Black Sabbath Paranoid for like 10 bucks. Boy was it worth every penny.

The Best of the Lovin Spoonful, the second was Led Zepplin one.

Vinyl -Weird Al Cassette - Ed O.G. and The Bulldogs *C.D.- Chris LeDoux.

Johnny Rivers, "Tracks of My Tears" around 1967

first lp was Falco
First cassette was Twisted Sister "stay hungry"

I think I was probably all of 12 years old......I'm really dating myself

U2 the Joshua Tree

Sammy Hagar "Live-All Night Long". I bought it at Do-Re-Mi Records in Carmel, CA.

Tchaikovsky first piano concerto in B flat minor.
It's a very emotional piece. I bought it at a First National
grocery store for 75 cents. It was a vinyl record, there
were no CD's or MP3 players back in those days.

I have it on vinyl .. I purchased at a record store

It took me a couple of months to save enough money (it was $20... but for someone who only got $5 a fortnight pocket money.. things took a while)... But I purchased U2's "Achtung Baby" as a cassette tape for myself.... (Most of the other music I listened to was either given to me or I stole from my older siblings.)

Warren G's "regulate...G funk era" I bought it at The Wherehouse music store

Smash Mouth - "Astro Lounge"

Oasis - Don't Believe the Truth.

I wish I could tell you I was cool enough that it was the Velvet Underground or The Ramones or Big Star or something awesomely seminal! Ha! But the truth is that it was the "glory" that was John Denver's Rocky Mountain High. I freaking worshipped that nerd! I'd have to wait a couple years before they let me near the cool kid's vinyl.

When I was like 13 I bought No More Tears by Ozzy Osbourne from Best Buy I'm not an Ozzy fan anymore so I usually go with the 2nd album I ever bought which was Led Zeppelin III from Circuit City like 2 weeks later

I think it was a c.d. from Hillary Duff.

Lame? I know.

Van der Graaf Generator's Pawn Hearts. A shop. We had shops back in the old days - they were places where people went to buy stuff. My wife shops from this chair. :(

Proper music. Meaty and involving.

The Red Hot Chili Peppers - Blood Sugar Sex Magik. I don't think I could tell you where I bought it from. I can tell you I still have it. It is well loved.

The Clash's first album. Changed my life. "Parnoid" is great. I love the first 5 Sabbath albums, "Sabbath, Bloody Sabbath" being my favorite.
