What was your first record?

My first 45 was either "Dizzy" by Tommy Roe or one of The Beatles early singles.

My first few albums were all greatest hits (due to limited budget/allowance) by the likes of: The Byrds, Bob Dylan, Donovan, Doors and the Guess Who.

My first "proper" album was either "Crosby, Stills & Nash" or "In The Court of the Crimson King."

I think the first record I bought was Grand Funk Railroad’s " Mark, Don and Mel".

"America" by America (Horse With No Name) LP

Songs of Leonard Cohen. In 1968 I found the album in a record store. I “hid” in among the classical albums til I could return the next day with money. I think it was $3.99. At the time I had a turntable but had not finished building my Heathkit receiver or my coax speakers, cabinets covered with walnut contact paper. 
 

T-Rex, Electric Warrior. First week it was available. Think I paid something like $1.29 or $1.99 at Kresge’s 5&10 in St. Pete, FL. Got it for a party. Still have it.
