My first any format of album that I bought. I had to special order. It was the soundtrack to Paint Your Wagon. The movie from the '60s. Starring Clint Eastwood and Lee Marving singing. I was 11 and it was 1991.
Yes I am a dork, and a nerd. I still love musicals and Clint Eastwood was really hot in 1969 even if he had no butt.

My 1st LP record that I ever purchased was for 1 song on it by Doris Day called "Its magic" back in 1976.

First 3 CD's I ever bought were bought at the same time so they are all equally "first."
Dire Straits -- Brothers in Arms (I have bought 3 copies of that album in various formats.)
GF Handel --- Music for the Royal Fireworks
GF Handel --- Water Music
First Single record bought with my own money (as opposed to having it bought for me) "Rubber Ball by Bobby Vee"
First cassette, Clannad -- Legend about the time I bought my first walkman prior to that I'd only used Cassettes to record radio shows.

I remember getting A Chipmunk Christmas on cassette one year when I was about 8.
The first vinyl LP I remember buying was Wham's Make It Big, and I think I also bought Duran Duran's Arena on cassette around the same time.
The last vinyl I purchased before turning to CD's was the 45 for Faith No More's Epic.

YES!!! another Boingophile Browncoat exists! Good lord, that's a weird combo. Got into Elfman as a result of my Nightmare Before Christmas obsession. Don't have QUITE all the CDs yet, but I'm working on some of the rarities and even have an ALIVE '89 t-shirt I paid WAY too much for at a vintage place.

Shiny! Firefly and Boingo are two things that really define who I am, both are relatively obscure interests, and I think it's awesome when there is overlap.

Not a dork at all, in my book! My older sister and I went to the theater to see Paint Your Wagon and we sat through it twice. That was sometime in 1970 (took a while for the movie to come to our Nebraska backwater). Later, my sister bought the album, and to this day I still love the movie and can sing all the songs on it.
The first LP I ever bought was several years prior to that -- The Beatles second album. I'm officially in the "old geezer" demographic.
Most recent CD purchase: Soundtrack to Firefly. :)

You guys, never be ashamed of the music you like.
A lot of the music I like gets me a lot of grief from other people, but I continue to listen to it.
I love Karen Carpenter, Doris Day, Buddy Holly, Barbra Striesand (thet spelled right?) and most classicals. I also have a large appetite for movie soundtracks. There is no such thing as being a "dork" for listening to the music that makes you feel good, so don't call yourself that.
So far, what I've read in this thread, you people seem to have good taste in music, so I must be hanging around the right crowd.
