Whether its in cassette, long playing, 45's, compact discs or mini discs...Can you recall the first ever record of music that you ever bought? Mine was in a cassette format during the early 80's when I was still in 3rd grade. I had my mum buy me my first two tapes which are Culture Club and The Police Synchronicity album. From there on, I got hooked in collecting music up until now, I still buy cd's even if mp3's are rampant nowadays. Nothing beats owning a copy of your favorite cool artists and actually feeling the artwork on the palm of your hands...mmmmmm..very comforting.

The first ever record I bought was Celine Dion's album, that was in 1990's the album which includes To love you more and because you love me. It was still in cassette tape those days. I am not actually a music fan, but I was so into Celine then ha ha. but now I don't buy any, the last one I bought was Les Miserables and that was 10 years ago.

It was a 45 single of The Beatles "Revolution". I was all of 8 years old and huge Beatle fan. At least they were still together when I bought it! Still have it, too - complete with my name on it.
