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’

Me? Introducing the Beatles on VeeJay records.

Hi, Glenn. 

If you like Mary Robbins, may I suggest you check out the Carolyn Sills Combo.

Great musicianship, brilliant songwriting 

One of their albums, Return to El Paso, retells the story in 5 songs, each from the perspective of one of the protagonists.

They also try to keep a lot of the classic western swing & other artists alive by including a few select pieces in their live repertoire. 

I'm going to see them live this weekend. 

Enjoy! 

Ken

 

 

Not counting the scores of 45 rpm Beatles records and their first couple LP's that my siblings and I bought together, I'd have to say:

1st: Jefferson Airplane: Crown of Creation

2nd: King Crimson: Court of the Crimson King

Went to visit a friend one Saturday when I was eight and wound up spending the afternoon in his older brother’s room listening to rock and roll 45s. Begged my folks for a copy of Dion’s The Wanderer. My first LP was The Beach Boys Surfin’ Safari, which I received as a gift. The first LP I bought myself was Bob Dylan The Time They are a’Changin. I was 10 years old and shoveled snow for the dough.

A 45 of "Sky High" by Jigsaw.

I'm a 21st century digital man now.  I own absolutely no vinyl.
