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.

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!

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. Edited by David_D - January 21 2023 at 15:57 |

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).
