What was your first record?


The first record I ever owned: ‘At the Hop’ by Danny and the Juniors ( just listened to it, and it made me get up and dance!)


The first record I ever bought myself: ‘Meet the Beatles’

sometime in the mid 60’s, I traded some baseball cards for a Herman’s Hermits & Monkees albums & played them on my National brand record player, radio, amp, speaker all in one combo. Panasonic was called National in Japan where it was made & my Dad bought it during a business trip w/ the Matsushita Company procuring parts for his telephone interconnect system he designed & built to compete w/ Ma Bell. 

I remember the first album I purchased to play on my first "real" stereo in the early 1970s

- Rod Stewart - Every Picture Tells a Story

The first record I owned was Bay City Rollers - Saturday Night 45 that I played on my new stereo back in the 70s. 

At the Hop - a Great song having all that made late 50's rock so much fun

Had lots of 45s  The first one I obsessed voer (and drove my parents crazy) was Pearl Baily It Takes Two to Tango, at 5 years old  Fave 45 - Maybe Runaway Del Shannon or Runaround Sue by Dion

First couple of LP's

Harry Belafonte at around 12 years old, Van Cliburn's Performance of the Tchaikovsky 1st Piano Concerto that won him International fame and the Moscow based Tchaikovsky Competition

Beatles 65

Mary Robbins Gunfighter Ballads 

Still have and listen to the Marty Robbins and the Van Cliburn
