What was your first music that you paid for?


In fifth grade I received a stereo for Christmas. What a mistake my parents made, I never stopped the hobby. My firat album was Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass with :What Now My Love" my first 45 was "Guitarzan by Ray Stevens and the first 8-track was Frijid Pink.

A yellow 45 with the theme song from the western series "Cheyenne". Can't remember what the flip side is.

I won my second 45 (Elvis's "Blue Hawaii") @ my father's company picnic by driving a spike all the way into a 2x4 with 2 whacks of a hammer. The fat drunk guy running the contest said I was too young to participate, but my father talked him into giving me a chance. The guy got pissed off when I won (3 blows/whacks was a win). I then called the old guy a peckerhead and got into trouble. Gave the 45 to my mother who later took my sister and myself to see the movie (the movie sucked).
Columbia House 12 albums for 99 cents: several Simon and Garfunkel, Bob Dylan, Herb Alpert, Brazil 66. Can't remember the rest...

Not as bad as my first "sink the bismark", great system you have by the way! Wondering if your room passes the "hand clap" test though? I'll bet my Krell's would hunker-down and try to hide if those big-ass tube amps pulled up along side.
