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’

My mom waited tables at a local barbecue joint when I was a kid. The fellow who serviced the juke box would often give her some 45s when they were changed out to bring home to me for what passed as our record player. Lots of Merle Haggard, George Jones, etc., but for some reason, I remember getting Brook Benton, rainy night in Georgia in the deal, and I still love that song

first LP I remember buying myself was the eponymous John Prine in 1971

was Paradise then and remains so today'

The Troggs, "Wild Thing" from the Base Exchange at the (then) Lowry Air Force Base in Denver during the annual school clothes buying trip. My mother was aghast. I still have it, but not the clothes

1967, I was 12 years old.  I saw the Beatles play Hello Goodbye on the Ed Sullivan Show.  I went the next day and purchased the 45.  When I got home, I played it and then flipped it over.  I Am The Walrus was on the B side.  That is exactly when I decided to save my money and buy a guitar.  From that point on, listening to music and playing guitar has and always will be a passion of mine.

Boston- self titled. I was 8 yrs old. Blew my mind. 
never heard a guitar sound like that.
