What was your first record?

First record my mom bought me (age 7 or 8):  Kiss - Dressed to Kill

First record I bought myself (age 9):  Rush - Farewell to Kings

:)

I think I was maybe 12 (1970). My parents got me a suitcase phonograph and two 45 rpm records. “No time” by the Guess Who and “Venus” by The Shocking Blue. I now have about 3000 records 

I have been thinking n thinking what was the first album i bought with my own money.The Beatles 65,bought it at Woolworth's in Manhattan. I was a Freshman in High School Aviation HS class of 69.

My Grandmother bought me Meet the Beatles and i love her and the album....

First record was “Headquarters” The Monkees - mom bought it for me at the local grocery store, King Soopers, in Denver

First one bought with my own money was “Closer to Home” Grand Funk Railroad - still remember listening to it with my cousin after my grandpas funeral.  Never got to see them in concert, but my cousin did.  I was always jealous.

It’s interesting that we all remember that first record.  So much music from that time that I say is part of my actual DNA
