What was the first 78, 45, 33 or CD you ever bought?

I remember my first 45 was "Sugar, Sugar" by the Archies.

I'm not sure about album but I remember I was thrilled when my dad bought me David Cassidy's first single album (Cherish I think) when I was about 10.

I think the first record I bought with my own money was
a 45 RPM single - Bobby Goldsboro's "Honey" I have NO idea what I was thinking but I LOVED that song...I was 11!!

A year or two year later I got a "phonograph" for Christmas and my first ALBUM ...Sounds of Silence (Simon & Garfunkel). I listened to it over and over and over and over. It fit my moods quite well at the time and remains an all-time favorite!

First 45 was King Harvest's Dancing in the Moonlight -- loved that song then and still love it today.

First album was Elton John's Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirty Cowboy. Still love that too, although I have since replaced it on CD.

The first CD I bought was Little Feat's Waiting for Columbus. My boyfriend (now husband) left my album of the above in the backseat of the car in the summertime, and I had never replaced it. Years later when I bought my first CD player I decided to replace it on CD.

 

[Geezer]

I remember as a little shaver having a 45 of "How much is that Doggy in the Window". LOL, I think I still have it! It was yellow!

 

[Saffron]

This thread is bringing back so many memories!

faithinkarma - how about that with your husband and that song! I remember hearing that story about Ricky Nelson and the inspiration for that song, but I don't remember where or how.

Everytime I hear that song "Snoopy and the Red Baron" I just crack up! It really brings back memories of my childhood.

I can remember slow dancing in summer backyard parties to "Chrimson and Clover" and dancing to "Hang on Sloopy". Hahaha! 45's were great!

 

[Micca]

First single I bought with my own money, I Want To Hold Your Hand b/w I Saw Her Standing There (same as Robinrs!).

First album was Beatles '65

First cassette(never had 8 track) Rubber Soul

First CD Band On The Run


notice a pattern?


Funny thing is, even though it's more recent, I can't tell you what the first DVD was

 

[Saffron]

Ooooh, I can Micca! That would be Disney's "Hocus Pocus". It's only one of two DVD's I bought, the other is "ET"! LOL! I'm not the DVD buyer in the house! LOL! I hope he buys "Shrek" while it's still around. I asked him to a while ago but as far as I know he hasn't.

 

[JoeThaNo1Stunna]

I bought two first albums, Janet Jackson Rhythm Nation and Ghostbusters 2 Soundtrack.

[Missy1961]

First 45: Anticipation, by Carly Simon

First album: Billy Joel, 52nd Street

First CD: Nat King Cole's Christmas album, I bought my new stereo with my first CD player with my Christmas bonus from work. So I bought that CD first.

 

[nuts4sn00py]

First 45 I bought was "Rhinestone Cowboy" by Glenn Campbell. I have no idea why or what I was thinking at the time, but I guess that gives away my age. LOL! My first album was by Andy Gibb called "Shadow Dancing". I still have both of them! Kathy

 

[Dan Murphy]

First 33 was Little Richard, Here's Little Richard! 45 was Jenny, Jenny, Little Richard.

[Dee & Greg]

Okay, the first record I bought was a '45... "Rubber Ducky" from Sesame Street (1968?)
Anyone else remember the records on the box of cereal? I had "Sugar Sugar" by the Archies... it was actually the cardboard box..I think the cereal was Super sugar crisp. The record played on my "Close and Play" record player... you closed the lid and it played... guess the record needle was in the top of the player!

 

[DisneyAddict_M]

My first CD was the Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat soundtrack. I still have it!

 

[flaps]

Not positive, but I think it was Petra's LP Not of this World.
