The 1st Album, Cassette or CD you ever owned (?)  email this discussion to a friend?

If you can remember, what was the very first music album, cassette or cd that you ever owned.

I do not mean something you got when you were a child but rather something you picked out yourself or you were given as a gift because you requested it.

Do you remember about how old you were? Would you still have the album, cassette or cd as a part of your collection now?

If you can't remember the first one, then just tell me the first one you can remember or a few of the ones you first remember.

For me I can remember a few of them.
The Eagles - Hotel California .. it was a little 45" record. I played it over and over and over.

ABBA - all of them but they were 8 track tapes at first and then when cassettes came out, I got those. I use to sing to those songs in the garage to my dog. He was the best fan I ever had!

Shawn Cassidy - another 45" and I was a little pre-teen who thought he was cute.

ACDC - Back in Black Cassette. My brother gave it to me and I thought I was suppose to like them because he did. It never grew on me.

Devo - Whip It. My dad took it away because he didn't like the term "whip it" in the late 70s early 80s.

Olivia Newton-John - Let's Get Physical. My dad also took this one away, took risky of a song for his pre-teen to be listening to. Ends up, he kept it for himself I found out as an adult!!

The Clash - Rock the Casbah. LOVED this record. I got it for my 12th birthday, I believe.

I would still have most of these in my collection today if I could with the exception of ACDC, Shawn Cassidy and Olivia. Just not my taste these days.

So what about you?

I think my first record was Grease. I was about 3 years old I think.
My first cassette tape was Heart. I believe I was about 7? I think it was Heart. Otherwise it was Madonna.
I used to buy alot of 45 records as well. I think Prince was one of my first ones.

My first CD's. I got 2 when I first got a CD player. They were Madonna "Erotica" and Megadeth "Rust In Peace".

I'm pretty sure those are correct. It's been a long time! :-)

Greets!

The first tape I ever bought myself was U2's "The Joshua Tree". I played it so much that I wore it out and had to buy another one. Before that, though, my brother gave me Jonny Cash's original "Ring of Fire" album...really good stuff.

I remember having a 45 of Dolly Parton singing 9 to 5 when I was around 8 or so. I don't know if I picked it out myself or not though. The first things I remember getting, I must have been around 12 or so. I had John Cougar Melloncamp's Scarecrow album (that I played on my Fisher Price record player!) and 8 tracks of Huey Lewis's Sports, and one of their early albums. I thought those were so cool!

When I was 3 or 4, I got George Harrison's "Got My Mind Set On You" single for Christmas. I was soo excited! Anytime I heard the song, I would stop whatever I was doing at that time. I guess I didn't really ask for it, but I obviously wanted it.

The first tape I ever bought was a Randy Travis one. I don't remember which one it was it. He was wearing a black shirt on the cover. It was right before I started 1st grade. My grandma would give me quarters for things like helping her bring in groceries and helping water or weed the garden. I saved all those up to buy that tape. I knew my mom would buy it but I wanted it be MY own.

The first CD I bought was Audio Adrenaline's "Bloom." I was in sixth grade. It was kind of funny how that worked out. We got our first CD player that year, and it was supposed to be a surprise for Christmas. My aunt ruined the surprise, though. She gave my sister 2 CD's for her birthday in November!

I'm not sure of my first record, but you just reminded me of my Shawn Cassidy days. I thought he was so cute. I had a bunch of 45's Seasons in the Sun by Terry Jacks, Bad Bad Leroy Brown, Under Cover Angel wow the memories. I know there are a bunch, I just can't remember. Then I got some albums, Kool In the Gang, Black Sabbath, Van Halen, Journey, Kenny Rogers, I still have my albums, even though I can't play them.

The very first cd I owned was the album of back street boys. Its a gift from my Aunt when she got back from San Diego. She asked me what do I want and then I told her that I want a cd of BSB. I was so happy back then. lol However if you say the first cd I own, meaning that I have bought by my own money. It was the X movie original soundtrack. Because I was really fond of the ending song "Forever Love" by X-Japan. The song is quite emotional as I listen to it, something sad however has a strong impact in your heart. And the lyrics, I simply love the lyrics its so meaningful.
