For most people this will equate to the existing thread on the first album you bought as a kid.
Why would I say 'have it'?

Would have been sometime in the summer of 2008, I got my first record player in September that year and had already started browsing around the charity shops (which in those days were practically giving them away for about 20p each) to build a collection. Probably an old Now album.
I'd inherited a few from my parents and grandparents too, my grandma kept her player as her main source of music listening until it broke in 2003! |

Does Rock Around The Clock on 10 inch 78 rpm shellac count? Otherwise, probably Apache by The Shadows.

A synthesizer rework album of Star Wars in 1978 (it was awful ! I wanted the proper John Williams score!) and a year later, Abbas Greatest Hits Vol 2, which blew my mind and which I danced like a dervish to, in my mums lounge when no-one was around!

I grew up with CD's and Cassettes so I'm part of the Vinyl revival.
My first Vinyl was and just had to be Kate Bush- Hounds of Love. I bought it second hand, almost mint from a market and it still had the old 1985 insert where you could order merchandise etc. Still treasure it. |

Aintree Island by Pinky and Perkie in the 60s some time when I was a young child....
I remember what I bought with my first weeks wages from my first proper job when I left school in 1979. Silly Games - Janet Kay Babylons Burning - The Ruts Are Friends Electric - Tubeway Army. |

Ignoring the mixture of kiddies music that was bought for me.
I think the first singles I bought was Ian Dury and his Rhythm Stick number 1 hit. Then the Tom Robinson Band with one of their early singles. Not sure about the LPs probably some post punk - new wave band though. All my vinyl stuff is safely kept in a big record box. |
