Bad, Michael Jackson, for my 8th birthday, on cassette. Loved it. I dont still have it unfortunately.

Footoo

Appetite for Destruction on tape with my communion money

CardBordWindow

Californication by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. CD album.

Californication (the song) was the first mp3 I ever downloaded on Napster. After I bought the album, I deleted it!

salacious crumb

Not sure about first album, but the first 7" single I paid for with my own money was A-Ha's Take on me :pac:

SoapMcTavish

Single - Jona Lewie - Stop the cavalry
Album - Thompson Twins - Hold me now

Albums were too expensive back then - maybe as much as £5.99

Eminems LP album

New Boots & Panties - Ian Dury & The Blockheads + Damned, Damned,Damned - The Damned (bit of a rarity, rear of the album cover had a picture of Slaughter & The Dogs & NOT The Damned on it...misprint)

Bought both LP's the same day in Woolworths, GPO arcade, Henry Street & yes I still have them

Kess73

Iron Maiden - The Number Of The Beast

On vinyl back in 1982, and still have it.

It was a cassette of cartoon theme tunes. Biker Mice from Mars was my favourite. There was also a brilliant version of No Limits sung by some cats, replacing the word 'no' with 'meow'. In fact all the lyrics were 'meow'. It was a kind of instru-meow-tal version. I do not still have it but I think about it every day.

SimmerDean

on a primary school tour i borrowed money off my older brother to buy Steps-Step One on cassette. Tragedy is one word that comes to mind looking back at it now

Hoop66

Never Mind the Bollocks - Sex Pistols.

It's easy to look back on them as a bit of a joke now, especially compared their more long-lived contemporaries. But to an 11 year-old boy, it sounded like the end of the fucking world, and I loved it.
