Not a LP or a CD, but my first MC was Sandra "Paintings in yellow". My first CD was... RMB "Widescreen" - Yes! - Untill 1997 I've been listening to MC's only...

(1997 is the year I bought my first CD player... talking about being poor Wink

For my 17th birthday I got one of these 3 cd changers (before that I had casette tapes hooked up to a tube-radio).

So; 3 places meant I had to have 3 cds. On a uterrly irrational whim I decided to order stuff based on a article, rember I grew up in the country side where no interesting music would sell.

Swans; "white light from the mouth of infinity"
Joy Devision; "Unkown pleasures"
Bauhaus; "the Sky's gone out".

My favourite back then was the Swans one so I decided I wanted to have all Swans albums. It seemed like a reasonable cource to start this collection with the first one. So; suddenly my tender little sould was confronted with "Filth" a masterpiece of 82 New York No-wave.

Oops.

I've kind of cruelly got hold of my father's old record collection- well actually his folk LP's- quite a bit of bluegrass and The Incredible String Band- some of which is really quite fab. "Wee Tam" comes with a listening recommendation- although it's about as far away from anything electronic as is possible!!

I played Autobahn this afternoon Smile

Still sounds as fresh as it did all those years back Very Happy

I should add that I was big into Dave Brubeck in those days too! "Take Five"- what a classic!( although written by Paul Desmond!)

The first LP I bought (at ten, I think) was Time by ELO. After a few more ELO albums I bought Ammonia Avenue by The Alan Parsons Project. I've been schizophrenic about the whole synth/rock thing ever since.

My Mom had an album of 78s - The Nutcracker Suite. I've never heard any music I like better. Very Happy

I love the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies.

Wow - I can't remember... I know my sister preferred cassettes - and I remember listening to her Ozzy, AC/DC tapes. I think my first vinyl was when I started breaking away from her tastes and getting into 80's synthpop - I'm betting it was either Depeche Mode or Howard Jones.

I'm sure Depeche Mode was my first 12".

I loved the Beatles when I was a lot younger - had several albums dubbed off of my uncle's vinyl on tape. But synthpop stuff was my first 'purchases' of my own (surely with my parents money though... ha.)

7"... I don't remember... they came after LP's and 12" - again - probably Depeche Mode, Howard Jones, or possibly Cabaret Voltaire.

the first LP that i ever head (and remember clearly) was Jarres Oxygene. i was something like 3 or 4 and my uncle played that record to me - we would turn all lights off and play whit flashlight and "sing" strange spacey noises. that was so fascinating. i hope i never forget those moments
