What was the first record you ever bought and are you ashamed of it ?

Answer 1

First single I ever bought with my own money was Showaddywaddy's "Under The Moon of Love"...Showaddywaddy, for all the people who's first "record" was a CD (Oh God I'm soooo old!), were a group int he 70s in the UK who dressed in Zoot Suit style and released records with a faux-50s sound. Should be ashamed of that, probably, but can't be bothered.

First album I ever bought - again on vinyl - was Foreigner's Agent Provocateur. Not a great start to my music-buying life, but if the roack gods were angry, I appeased them with my second album, Blondie's debut, Parallel Lines.

And my first CD - Suzanne Vega's debut album, bought after watching a documentary on her. Not an everyday sort of album, but one I'm still proud to own and play.

Answer 2

The first CD I ever owned was Green Day's Dookie album - and heck no! I'm not ashamed of it.

The first CD I ever bought was the Mask soundtrack - and heck no! I'm not ashamed of it.

Don't remember ever buying any actual records, though. By the time I was old enough to buy things for myself cassette tapes were the thing - and yes, I am ashamed - I am too ashamed to tell anyone!

Answer 3

The first album I ever bought was Ted Nugent Free For All. Funny story: My sister owned it. So did my brother. When I bought it my parents said, "Don't your sister and brother have it?" and I argued back, yeah but they never let ME listen to it!

Am I ashamed? Only that it goes down in history as my first. My second was Styx - Pieces Of Eight which none of my siblings owned and is still a faveorite to this day. I still like a lot of the songs on the Nuegent album, but overall I am not the biggest fan of his.

Answer 4

The first one I ever bought was Whitney Houston's I Will Always Love You. I am now so ashamed it makes me want to cringe, even though I was only 4 at the time. What makes it worse it that I truly believed I could sing it like she does in the song, and I would also play the tape over and over again and never grow bored of it. My parents got pretty bored of it though, and I think they resorted to hiding the tape to get some peace.

Answer 5

The first album I ever bought was called Outrageous Hits '87. It was a casette and I still have it. It has songs like French Kissin in the USA and Word Up. I used to be ashamed but its all retro now.

Answer 6

First album I bought was Piledriver by Status Quo. Has 4 weak tracks and 4 all time Quo classics. First single was Blockbuster by Sweet. Not ashamed of either

Answer 7

The 45 rpm single The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly by Hugo Montenegro in1968. Which sold over a million copies and hit #2 on the Top Ten chart.
No I am not ashamed.

Sir Tom Jones, Kt, OBE the Treforest lad?
NOBODY should have to ask who Tom is, he's one of the good guys.

Answer 8

Meet The Beatles. I won it in a school promotion. The teacher looked at the cover and wanted to know who those weird looking people were. This was a LONG time ago. Music came as records and that was it. Not even 8 track had been invented.

Answer 9

The first record i ever bought was Madonna"s "Like A Virgin". I was not ashamed as i liked Madonna. She was my idol at the age of 13.

Answer 10

My first record was a 45 RPM, ' Seasons In The Sun', by Terry Jacks, and yes I still enjoy the song. It was the very beginning of a 2000 plus 45 RPM collection.

Answer 11

Michael Jackson - Dangerous

I think I was ten when I bought it. I was in love with remember the time.

Am I ashamed? Yes and no. I am ashamed for the artist, but not for the music.
