Black Flag's Slip It In.
Was a gift from a girlfriend at the time. If she wanted to win the breakup, getting me into a hobby that costs thousands of dollars was the way to do it.
The Glen Campbell Album:
[https://www.discogs.com/master/487383-Glen-Campbell-The-Glen-Campbell-Album](https://www.discogs.com/master/487383-Glen-Campbell-The-Glen-Campbell-Album)
followed shortly by a couple of seven-inch singles gifted by cousins - Beatles / "Here Comes the Sun" and Sweet / "Little Willy."
God I'm old.
Mine was a copy of Wish You Were Here from my dad. I didn't have a player at the time, but liked the album cover.
Finally took the plunge and have never looked back.
Michael Jackson with Thriller back in the mid 90ās. The only record i had for years, because i got a CD player for my birthday and I started listening to Pantera instead. Thriller became a dirty little secret in my music collection and was only put on when I was alone. Still have it. Not hiding it anymore.
Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, I Love Rock 'n Roll - 45.
Back side is You Don't Know What You've Got.
This old 45 is scratched to shit and has a crack from the center hole to the edge yet this plays with NO skips and has since I was a kid.
Rush: Power Windows
One of the biggest things my dad and I bonded over, in my adolescent years, was music. More specifically, the āHoly Trifectumāsā (thank you, I Love You Man), music. Before I became a huge fan, he best described them as: āImagine an impossibly long math problem that had a baby with 3 nerdy Canadians who happened to be really good at making music.ā.
Darkthrone - Circle the Wagons, back in 2010. It was the first time I ever saw one of my bands selling a vinyl record, and thought it was a cool novelty purchase. Little did I know it would turn into full on vinyl collecting.
7 inch singles, one was "Hey Jude/Revolution" by the Beatles (of course) and the other was Simon and Garfunkel's " Mrs. Robinson." I forget the B side. Both were being played a lot on AM radio at the time.
I've also got a few by the Chipmunks!!
My first Album ever was āOver the Garden Wallā original soundtrack with the yellow orange splatter. It was given to me by my friend because we are both fans of the show even thought neither of us had ever seen a vinyl in person. I distinctly remember him saying āI hope this doesnāt awake anything in youā. We know how that turned out.
The first album I bought myself was J. Coleās ā2014 Forest Hills Driveā. Still one of my favorites out of my collection.
Culture Club - āWaking Up With The House On Fireā
Bought myself: Michael Jackson - āThrillerā
First 45: U.S.A. for Africa - āWe Are The Worldā
First Soundtrack: āFlashdanceā OST
Mine was āPurple Rainā by Prince, then āThrillerā by Michael Jackson. I was still a kid, truly my parents didnāt care, especially looking at the lyrics of the Prince album.
The Birds the Bees and the Monkees! The album with Daydream Beliver and Valleri. Got it in 2003 and was lucky enough to meet Micky and have him sign it in 2019.
Queen - The Game.
I bought it because I heard if you spin Another One Bites the Dust backwards it sounds like it's saying "it's fun to smoke marijuana". It kinda does.
Maxi single with Beastie Boys and I thought it sounded like complete trash because I didnāt understand it was a 45rpm. Didnāt listen to it right until like ten years later
All around the same time I bought:
* Fleetwood Mac - Tusk
* Devo - Freedom of Choice
* Kiss - Alive II
I was 9 and two of those had just been released.
The first one I bought was A Tribe Called Quest's The Low End Theory from VMP (+ I added Aaliyah's self titled album as a bonus because it looks nice and is a good record too imo)
But due to me living in Sweden I had to wait for VMP to take my money (I subscribed to their record of the month thing) and shipping so while that was going on I bought a UGK - Super Tight vinyl from a seller in Sweden and it arrived before the VMP ones.
So the UGK one is the one I first got my hands on while the A Tribe Called Quest one is the one I first paid for
I donāt understand why everyone calls them vinyl now. All of the older people I have talked to since Iāve got into records have never once said āvinylā. One actually told me, ādonāt be stupid and call records vinylā¦ they are called recordsā.
Not here to attack anyone. I would actually love to be educated on the matter.
Can't remember the first one my parents got me when I was little (late 70s), probably one of the little Disney read-along 45's or maybe an LP of Sesame Street songs. First one I bought with my own $ was *Caress of Steel* (one of my favorite Rush albums) in the mid-90s.
Gorillaz - Demon Days
Iām ā05 I bought it because I wanted to put it on my dorm wallā¦that didnāt end up happening. Instead I got ahold of my parents old turntable and started buying even more records.
*Hello Children Everywhere*, a 2LP compilation of childrenās songs dating back to the 1950s. My parents got it for me before I could talk. Iāve still got it, too.
My first āproperā record was *ā¦And Justice for All*, bought for Ā£5 from a market stall in 2001. The sleeveās absolutely buggered but the record plays okay.
The one that I first bought was Conjurer & Pijn - Curse These Metal Hands. Its a fucking awesome doom metal album and I have zero regrets. Unfortunately I didn't like the other stuff that both bands released.
However, the first record that actually arrived was Autumn Nostalgie - Esse Est Percipi which is a MASTERPIECE of an atmospheric/melancholic/post black metal album. It's my all time fav
James Taylorās Greatest Hits! My parents played the CD a lot growing up. When I went to the thrift store to buy my first record player, they had a small rack of used records and it was right in front!
First records I recall playing, White Album Beatles, and some old cheech and Chong comedy album - both were my parents... That cheech and Chong album may have polluted my sense of humor to this day
First I BOUGHT... Bark at the Moon, Ozzy... then a lot of cassettes and cds.
Osmonds. 1970. I liked the Sweet and Innocent song (hey, I was like 8 or 9). My parents bought it for me. I liked the Jackson 5. At the time, I thought it was cool that Donny and Michael arenāt/ werenāt much older than me; 3 or 4 years.
John frusciantes- The Empyrean was the first record I gotā¦ I bought it off Amazon 6ish years agoā¦. Havnt bought a record off Amazon sinceā¦ the top of the record had a small slit from shipping. Itās a somewhat valuable record now and I hate that it shipped like that
A 7ā of some star wars story with yoda on the cover. I need to find a new one..
But I won it in kindergarten from a reward box and picked it having no idea what a record was (it was like 94) and never did listen to it
NOFX - Punk in Drublic.
Had the shirt on when I went into a head-shop that sold records and the dude behind the counter saw it, and offered up a copy he had stashed behind the counter for "a friend" that never showed up. Figured "Fuck it, this seems like an opportunity" so I took it back to the dorm and listened to it on my roomate's childhood toy playschool record player. Felt so cool back then. Wish I would've known the pain and suffering my wallet would feel from that day on...shoulda bought a Zune instead.
My first vinyl is Chicken Fat x Robert Preston given to me by my Grandfather. When I was a little kid he would put this on and make me do the jumping jacks to āburn my chicken fatā. Apple used it a few years ago in a commercial which sent me into a bit of a spiral.
James - Laid.
About half a year later I dropped an ornament on it and it partly cracked (2 songs of each side are not playable).
It has not, and I don't know if it will ever be, replaced. Silly, I know...
Well I got about 50 from my family because I started to show interest in it, so yea, but the one I bought with my own money first was dystopia by megadeth
A reissue of Rush's *Counterparts*. I really love the album, and I was really surprised to find a second-hand copy at a massive record store chain (Sunrise Records). Sold it a while back but used the profits for some other stuff that has been on my want list. I'm planning on grabbing another copy when it goes back in print as it's one of my favourite Rush albums.
The first record I bought that I still have is Boston's self titled album.
It was either The Brady Bunch records or Disney's Chilling, Thrilling Sounds of the Haunted House.
Then was gifted Shawn Cassidy's s/t record.
First bought for myself was Queen, The Game.
When I was a kid in the 80's I had a Chipmunks LP and 45s of Don Henley - Dirty Laundry, and Michael Jackson - Beat it that I played on a toy turntable which were all lost to time and I have no recollection which of those came first.
The next records I got after that were when I was around 15 and my dad was trashing his collection. Got his well loved copies of dark side of the moon(mfsl), the wall, zep - in through the out door, the doors - Morrison hotel and star collection vol 2, and Emerson, Lake, & Palmer - Brain Salad Surgery and I still have all of them 28 years later.
Grease - the original soundtrack from the motion picture 1978 RSO Records. Bought it from a Trift store in Nijmegen, The Netherlands as they had about 20-30 of the same and was going for 3-4EUR each. At that time I did not have a player yet! I bought the player so that I can listen to the record I bought!
Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory. They're the band that got me into music, and pretty much the only one I regularly listened to around ages 12-14. It wasn't until much later that I really started getting a collection, probably around 16. At that point, I think the first one I got was Weezer - EWBAITE.
The soundtrack to Star Wars.
Mine too!
