    Sadly - 'Puppy Love' was the first I bought, but it got better with my second being 'Bohemian Rhapsody', on special order as a 10/11th birthday.

    I've never bought one cause I was too young to have my own money back then, but the first one I owned was a Fraggle Rock soundtrack.

    The first LP I ever bought was The Beatles "Magical Mystery Tour". It was $3.99 plus tax...big money for a kid back then.The movie was not shown in the US till many years later, but the album included a comic book style story of the movie so at least you could figure out the significance of the songs.

    used to get 45 singles as a kid...i remember getting Men At Work's Down Under and Bonnie Tyler's Total Eclipse of the Heart...i think I have like 50 45rpm singles somewhere at dad's house.

    Then moved on to cassette singles, then CD singles, then downloads.

    I think Rick Springfield, Jessie's Girl. Might've been Blondie though.

    That was mine too! Rick Springfield ~ Working Class Dog (which has Jesse's girl) & Success Hasn't Spoiled Me Yet. Bought both albums at the Rick Springfield Concert on October 8, 1984 at the Concord Pavillion. Damn, I can't believe I still remember all that.

    Either Don McLean's American Pie, or Wild Cherry's Play That Funky Music. Not sure which one was first, but I played the hell out of both of them.

    I do remember that Boston's self titled debut was my first 8-track

    Don't recall ever buying a 45 record.
    My first LP was Cosmos Factory by Credence Clearwater Revival.

    Several years later, I became a DJ at a local night club and all we had were records.
    I ponied up and bought a reel to reel player for happy hour (so I could chill) and just before I joined the Army, we started to make the change over to CD's.
    Now my 22 year old Son used nothing but CD's as a DJ in Austin, TX.

    The Beautys-- "Girl from planet fu ck"

    They were my favorite local band for a long time. I picked that 7" up at a little underground shop that is no longer there. Le sigh.
