Bozo The Clown...I kid you not.
Well to be fair, I didn't buy it myself, I got it from my folks.

My first LP purchase...not 100% sure but most likely one of the following, Cat Stevens Tea for the Tillerman, Deep Purple Fireball, Paul McCartney RAM, Alice Cooper Killer.
Thank you for supporting independently produced music

but sorry in case, it wasn't your intention to be funny. Big smile

Mine was Judas Priest - Killing Machine on clear, red vinyl. Still plays well too.

I remember one of my very first LPs (I must have been 13) was Saxon: Strong Arm Of The Law on aqua blue vinyl... it looked most conspicuous and I was quite proud of it at the time!  Big smile

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

I can also tell that I remember it so well with Enigmatic because the circumstances were very special.

With The Beatles (Australian edition, Gold/black Parlophone labels) March 1964. My sister is 14 years older than me and she brought it home a few months prior to The Fab Four's Oz tour in June of that year. I still have it (and she keeps asking me for it back!). Only in fair condition though.
The Australian With The Beatles has unique cover art and the Gold/Black label version is very collectible.

My Enigmatic is still in excellent condition, both vinyl and the cover, but it's a reissue and not the original release.

My very first album purchase that I still own/possess is, I think, either The Carpenters The Carpenters or America's debut album--both released late in 1971 but purchased in the Spring of 1972 when I was 13 years old and had my own first money (and a "record player"--my first!)

The Beatles' Help is probably the oldest (given to me as a gift sometime in the 1960s). Then there is Peter, Paul and Mary Ten Years Together (again, a gift in 1970), then Jethro Tull's Aqualung and Alice Cooper's Killer from 1971. I started buying records pretty regularly after that with a newspaper route, and supplementing those with getting 12 albums for $2 (or whatever the deal was) a couple times from Columbia House (and then defaulting on the agreement -- well, I was under 16).
