    Olivia Newton John's "Let's Get Physical" album (vinyl). SEX-AY. At least when you're 12. :tongue:

    First Album I ever owned was Innocent Man by Billy Joel on Cassette or the Chipmunks Christmas Album on 33. I don't remember which was first! But I only ever had a handful of 33's and 45's.

    I'm a little vague on which one I actually bought first but it was likely one of: Poison - Open Up and Say Ahh..., Cranberries - Everybody Else is Doing It, So Why Can't We, or Counting Crows - August and Everything After. All of those on Cassette.

    First CD I bought was the Gin Blossoms - New Miserable Experience

    I wore the grooves off of it! Ha!

    Robert Plant is STILL sexy, in my honest opinion.

    My first record ever was a 45 of "In the Summertime" by Mungo Jerry for 89¢.
    I was 10 or 11.

    My first album (on vinyl) was "Billion Dollar Babies" by Alice Cooper. $3.99 at Woolco.
    I was 13.

    Good times. :smokin:

    If you were raised on the Internet then you grew up in an amazing period. But if you didn't grow up with full-sized album art and liner notes, well then I'm sorry to say that you missed out on some truly epic music appreciation.

    AMEN!

    Mine was the Backstreet Boys Millennium. I'm not ashamed to say that I still listen to it now and then and sing the songs at the top of my lungs!
