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.

Kiss Alive II...at Roses dept store...here in NC. I'll never forget that feeling. I was just a kid, about 13 or 14 I guess. Grandma took me to the store in her minty Buick Electra 225. Great thread...deep in memory at the moment. I need to get back into vinyl.

Welcome back, my friends, to the show that never ends-Ladies and Gentleman: Emerson Lake and Palmer. It'a live triple album (still have it) of one of the best prog rock band of all time. I had friends who were a cover band of ELP (they were called Tryad) and were amazing. Glorious if a little bit hazy memories.

Rush A Farwell To Kings with my own money at the record across the street from the high school that I began attending soon after the purchase. I already had 2112 on 8 Track. I had received a number of albums including Black Sabbath Paranoid, Frampton Comes Alive, Fleetwood Mac Rumours, and Led Zeppelin II from my neighbor when her daughter went away to college sometime around my 13th birthday in 1977. My first record player was a direct drive Akai and it was Consumer Reports top choice. I thought that it could not get any better than that.
