First Album you Got /Bought (3 Viewers)

[veryslowey]

hmm

I think that would be bon jovi's slippery when wet, closely followed by like a virgin, several thousand wham records and then things like lloyd cole and the commotions. All of which I still have.

are you sure that wasn't meant to be a PM to someone?

 

[minka]

Me too - welcome to the beautiful south it was. My first gig too (national stadium).

my first gig was also in the national stadium, but it was leonard cohen (with my parents, just to reduce the cool factor somewhat).

first actual album i bought was rattlesnakes by lloyd cole and the commotions, though i think i had at least one of those NOW compilations before that.

first record i learned how to put on the record player was tubular bells, with which i was somewhat obsessed when i was four.

I too loved tubular bells when I was a kid. I used to listen to the folks records which involved the Beatles, neil young, pink floyd and fleetwood mac.

 

[avernus]

no way! I was at that gig too.

I love you from the bottom of my pencil case....loved that song when I was a kid.

My first album was the Flash Gordon soundtrack by Queen, which I won somehow.

We didn't have a record player, so I hauled it around with me like a security blanket for about a year.
First album I bought of my own accord was Spike by Elvis Costello.

[Juno]

ha ha I remember I made a friend of mine cry as she was all excited about going to see Kylie so I told her Kylie mimed.

I was way meaner than that. I got sick of Kylie after a while but my friend still liked her. For no other reason than that I was pretty evil as a kid I told her that Kylie had died from anorexia. She had her mother saying novenas for Kylie...

Football Fight! That was a good one alright. Though Brian May's version of the Wedding March was what did it for me as a kid.
