Earth-Angel Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 I'm talking the first album you ever forked out your own cash for. Do you still have it? If it's quite old, I wonder how much it's worth money-wise as well as memory wise. Do you even still listen to it? Did you save up to buy it, or was it a by-chance purchase? I remember the first album I bought (well, it was a tape) was Rick Astley. I think it either got chucked, or was recycled (cellotape over the little security tab holes) and made into a mix tape. I wonder whatever happened to him? I should have waited for something better. Definitely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted September 5, 2004 Report Share Posted September 5, 2004 I still have my first albums that I payed for, they were records & they sit on my shelf & collect dust. I doubt they're worth anything since the local record store (called Zia) sells used vinyl for $2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

55dodger Posted September 5, 2004 Report Share Posted September 5, 2004 The Byrds Greatest Hits, still got it, probably not worth much, it's been well used. Don't listen to it anymore since I've upgraded to The Byrds Greatest Hits on CD. But being the packrat, I'll never get rid of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobo Posted September 5, 2004 Report Share Posted September 5, 2004 Beach Boys' Pet Sounds (mono/stereo) on CD. (Closely followed by Shania Twain. How's that for polarization?) Still got it, still listen to it frequently (even more frequently now as I myself am striving to emulate Brian and write the world's most perfect album. Ever. I'll get to it). As for Shania, "Come On Over", which incidentally has sold an incredible number of CDs over here, that wasn't mine originally and I got it as a gift from a friend. Still listen to it frequently. (I know, I'm so young and foolish!) Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danielj Posted September 5, 2004 Report Share Posted September 5, 2004 Please don't be angry, but it was N*Sync-No Strings Attached. I was 8.......... I traded it in for Guns n' Roses Greatest Hits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_jr_ Posted September 5, 2004 Report Share Posted September 5, 2004 I distictly remember moving, and all my albums warping in the sun of the back window of the family truckster, my Black Sabbath~Paranoid included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 Please don't be angry, but it was N*Sync-No Strings Attached. I was 8.......... I traded it in for Guns n' Roses Greatest Hits You made the right choice... Off Topic, but I didn't really like the songs they chose for that Greatest Hits album, they got most of the biggest hits, but there were lots of other good songs that could've been used. I didn't bother buying it though, since I already have all their studio recordings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MuzikTyme Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 Since I no longer have it, it must have been one of the albums that got melted from playing outside in the sun. It was Leapy Lees Little Arrows and it must of happened at the age of seven. Are You Experienced was among the many that warped. Black Sabbath, luckily, had not been formed yet. I know how you feel, JR. I was devastated. :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenny Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 I still have my Power Station cassette and I'm thinking of dusting it off and listening to it again. If it breaks, I won't replace it, but I'll keep it as long as it plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXX Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 I forgot what happened to it. Probably got lost in the shuffle when I moved to the US. Even though I can't recall what my very first CD is, I pretty much have every CD I ever bought with some exceptions that I am aware of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RonJonSurfer Posted January 6, 2005 Report Share Posted January 6, 2005 It was "space Oddity" by David Bowie. I played it so much that the quality went downhill. I bought another copy and gave the original to my best friend. I wonder if he still owns it? I'll have to ask him if he remembers that from 30 years ago.

DiggsUK Posted January 6, 2005 Report Share Posted January 6, 2005 Swapped for fishing tackle if I recall. Silly really as the biggest fish I used to catch were on my homemade bamboo pole, 'fly'-style line and size 18 hook. The fancy-Dan gear was no substitute for stealth and animal cunning.
