What was the first music album you bought?

On topic of the Beatles, Payn's hot take of the week is that Harrison's All Things Must Pass is better than any Beatles album. Just hit 50th anniversary too!

RIP Eddie. My friend had a PC named Nav Nelah as a tribute.

My player was less subtle. PC named Genesis after Genesis the band.

I think it might have been Don't Give Me Names by Guano Apes. It only came out in 2000, but it's the oldest that I can remember.

While I have some older albums that were purchased for me as gifts, I think the first one I ever bought myself was Frank Zappa's Apostrophe.

It was Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers in 1999. First album I bought myself. But first album I owned was given to me a year or two before and it as the black album by Metallica.

The Stranger by Billy Joel, my mother gave it to me for Christmas '81.

My first album was "A Salty Dog" by Procul Harum, if I recall correctly (it was a long time ago).

Procul Harem, Robin Trower, 1st record at least.

The first album I ever personally purchased was a tape cassette for Counterparts, by Rush.

You know, I don't think I can remember what the first album I bought with my own money was. For a moment I thought it might be the CDs of Magical Mystery Tour and Sgt.Pepper that I got in early high school, but then I remembered that those were gifts. And I'm pretty sure I had bought things prior to the secondhand GWAR cassette I got at the flea market early on in college.

hmm... It might be that album of Sousa marches that I got because it had the full version of the Liberty Bell March. I think I probably got that one myself
