    Metallica-Reload

    I found it in the gutter when I was riding my bike. Only the first few songs played because it was so scratched up but that was enough to get me addicted! I've been a metal head ever since.

    First Cassette: Tom Petty "Wildflowers"
    First CD: Hanson "Middle of Nowhere"
    First Vinyl: Ooberman "The Beauty of Your Soul" 7"

    Not counting any of "my" albums which were actually purchased by my parents... which would mean the first cassette and vinyl was probably something Sesame Street. Big Bird FTW.

    LOL The soundtrack to Men In Black :laugh: My mom had me in some awkward tap dance/ballet class and we danced to the theme song at a practice once and I wanted the CD after class. I had a giant black clunky CD player that made a lot of noise whenever it started up. And a disc man hahahaha. Oh how far technology has come.

    and the Spice Girls CD. I was a major fangirl. Still kind of am...

    I was raised in a rock n' roll, concert-going, tune-blasting family. My parents took me to shows, had massive record and then c.d. collections, so I didn't want for much. Lots of hilarious pros/cons with such an upbringing. Ha. The first album I recall purchasing on my own, with my own earned, baby-sitting money was Sixteen Stone by Bush.

    I don't remember the first one I had. Was probably one of Disney classics made in the late 70s or early 80s. The earliest record that I can remember listening to (which belonged to my parents) was Planxty, the black album (I don't think it has a title). I had my own record player as a kid and I had a few that I bought at jumble sales including Dougal and the Blue Cat, and "the band it played waltzing matilda" (yes I had ecclectic music tastes even as a child). The first record I bought from an actual record shop was "wouldn't it be good" by Nik Kershaw. Planxty/Christy Moore is still one of my favourite bands/artists.


    But I can't help feeling that I've been rick-rolled by the OP....
