Your First Vinyl Album.


What was your first vinyl purchase? I'm not talking about kiddie records but the first serious album you bought as a teenager. For me it was The Rolling Stones...Big Hits (High Tide & Green Grass). This album was key in my making the transition from bubble gum to rock n' roll. It's still a good album.

It's interesting that after 52 posts in this thread, and probably upwards of 100 performers mentioned, by my count there are exactly 0 female groups and 2 female soloists mentioned (Connie Francis, Joni James), and exactly 1 mixed group that had prominent female members (Fleetwood Mac). And there are 0 classical recordings.

I don't know what all of that signifies, if anything, but the statistics certainly seem striking.

Al,

Smetana's Moldau on CBS Masterworks may have been the second album I bought, if that helps.
Mama's and the Papa's "If You Can Believe Your Eyes and Ears" (I had an adolescent's crush for Michelle Phillips) and Herman's Hermits "On Tour" (their second album).

I think this is right. Bought with my "allowance" savings. I still have both Lps.
