What was the first album you ever purchased?

[Kirby]

Led Zeppelin I on cd

 

[Malak]

I'm not certain what my first tape was, but my first CD was DC Talk "Free At Last".

I'm not certain what my first tape was, but my first CD was DC Talk "Free At Last".

When I was younger I was only allowed to listen to Christian music, so Jesus Freak and Audio Adrenaline's first album (among other things) were some of my most played.

 

[Soundmanred]

Billy Joel (Not sure which one, probably the one with Uptown Girl) was my first cassette.
Information Society (self-titled) was my first CD

 

[Loop2kil]

First tape was Bryan Adams - Reckless
Don't hate...I was ~12-13 years old and hadn't discovered metal yet.


First CD was Bon Jovi - Slippery When Wet

First vinyl was either PacMan Fever or Queen's Single - Another one bites the dust

 

[Mo0o]

Bush - Sixteen Stone

 

[Loop2kil]

Led Zeppelin I on cd

Now that's an incredible first album right there....quite possibly the best album ever in the history of music.

 

[BUTCH1]

Really, an awesome album, besides the overplayed "Dream on" songs like "one way street" (which, sadly got zero air time) but meat on the bones of some good rock and roll..

 

[Ronstang]

Billy Joel (Not sure which one, probably the one with Uptown Girl) was my first cassette.
Information Society (self-titled) was my first CD

That Billy Joel album would be "An Innocent Man" and Information Society's self titled album is an awesome one. I beat my tape copy of it to death in the car back in the late 80's.

Metallica - Master of Puppets

I went out and purchased Kill 'Em All and Ride the Lightning later that day.

 

[AnonymouseUser]

Anthrax - Persistence of Time

 

[Squisher]

Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison. I was 12 in 1969.

Better question is what is the LAST album I've purchased. I dont pay for music anymore and I'm proud to say so. I will however take advantage of Apple's iCloud, which makes all my illegal music legal.

 

[ussfletcher]

Foo Fighters - Wasting Light

Yeah, its recent.

 

[Dr. Zaus]

murder she wrote

 

[nageov3t]

purchased at the same time, because I had to do a project on Marilyn Manson for high school.

I'd owned albums prior to that, but they were all either bought by my parents, received as gifts, or were cast-offs from my older sister.

A+ :thumbsup:

I think that entire album still holds up well today.

I give "Mechanical Animals" a spin on my ipod every now and then.

 

[smitbret]

Styx - Kilroy Was Here.

 

[SampSon]

I'm pretty sure it was Red Hot Chili Peppers - Mothers Milk on cassette.

I know there had to be something else, but that one sticks out in my mind for some reason.

 

[Eli]

I bought two albums at the same time.

Metallica - Kill 'em All
Metallica - Metallica

I bought Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets and ...And Justice for All a few days later.

 

[SandEagle]

Michael Jackson Thriller. though i did also have the Kenny Rogers Gambler 8 track

 

[pcgeek11]

The Beatles first album Please Please Me. Sometime around 1964 I think.

That is a fucked up... whatever it is there!

Pac Man Fever - My first album that I purchased and I was young.

The first album given to me as a gift was AC/DC - Back in Black, from my parents. I was only 8 or 9 at the time.
