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.

1970, Black Sabbath, "Paranoid". Don't care much for heavy metal anymore. Brings back great memories.
First 45 Thunder Road
First Album Martin Denny's Exotica, heard Quiet Village and was hooked
The Beatles' Abbey Road, I think... if not, it was something like Foreigner 4.
I'm 50. I believe I was around 6. Here's what I purchased at E.J. Korvettes, a (now defunct) discount "department" store with one of the great record sections I've ever seen:

Stones-High Tide, etc.
Dave Clark Five-Greatest Hits
Herman's Hermits-Hold On
The Beatles - Magical Mystery Tour if memory serves. It's definitely a blur but I do recall joining the Columbis House Record Club and getting The Doors - The Doors and The Soft Parade, Chicago Transit Authority, Blood Sweat & Tears II, Big Brother And The Holding Company - Cheap Thrills, Bob Dylan - Highway 61 Revisited, and a few more that would take some serious thought. Man I was in heaven when those albums showed up. Must've been 68 or 69.
