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’

First record I owned/purchased was the 45 single "Surfin' Bird" by the Trashmen

Beatles, Abbey Road. I was only allowed to listen via headphones, as this was getting a little too close to the devil’s music.

It’s good to still be kicking! It looks like I am one of the oldest people on here. I bought “Peter, Paul and Mary” in 1962, when I was 12. I still have it. It looks like a Brillo pad.

When I joined the Columbia Record Club in 1962 (the model upon which VMP bases it's subscription service), my choice for my free first LP was Johnny Horton's Greatest Hits (I loved "North To Alaska"). Titles that followed were the early Paul Revere & The Raiders albums.
