Oh dear - here goes.
First LP: The Wombles album (it was the 70's and I was very young).
First Cassette: Shakin' Stevens - Green Door.
First Vinyl Single: Duran Duran - The Reflex.
First CD: Extreme - Pornograffiti
I believe I have good taste now but back then it was another case entirely. I also bought around that time: Bucks Fizz, Chas + Dave and Agadoo!! I put it down to being young and naive and not clued in to the wonder of proper music. (I still think Pornograffiti is a great album).
Well that's my confession so I'll go and drink three bloody mary's and make up for it when I buy the Chili Peppers new album on Monday.

Hmmm...lets see.
1st with my own money: "Beauty and the Beast" Original Boradway Cast recording. I was 7 and had a summer "job" picking weeds in my neighborhood.
1st ever: Abbey Road-The Beatles, with my Dad at a Tower Records when I was 4. He thought he needed to start a "proper, well rounded musical education of actual music and not the bubblegum shit they play for kids now a days" early.

Jayne! Try not to steal too much of their shit.

Hi Malicous
Oo Oo Oooooo! I remeber Nazareth, my boyfriend of the time had Hair of the Dog and I loved it.
Can't remeber a blasted thing about it now except that I loved it.
Thanks for the trip (short but sweet down memory lane.)
Linkin Park and Metallica are on my CD shelf to.
Regards
Pony

First DVD - Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure

Eh, get out of my head! My brother and I combined had all of Petra, all of Undercover, all of Michael W. Smith, Keith Green, etc. I even spent some time tracking down Undercover's greatest hits on CD. I had to travel quite far to purchase Volume #2 from some Christian bookstore guy who was willing to sell. Petra's "The Coloring Song" was a favorite of mine growing up. Don't listen to much Christian music these days, except for the ocassional Switchfoot....
For answers to the post:
First 45: Shaun Cassidy: Da-do Run Run
First album: Johnny Cash Children's Album
First CD: Voice of the Beehive: Honey Lingers

It was either Styx - Grand Illusion or Billy Squire - Don't Say No, I can't remember.
Things got better (muscially) for me after that, don't you fret.

StillShiny: back in the day we used to get the youth director to let us take U2 with us to camp because "they were a christian band." I remember being in Algebra 2 as a freshman and talking to this senior about U2 and he was like, "Huh?" Little did he know.
I think these days I still avoid Christian music because 1)most of it sounds the same and 2)My mom went through a phase where I was only allowed to listen to Christian music. 'Course this came from a mother who raised us as wee ones on The Eagles, The Beatles, America, Neil Diamond Fleetwood Mac, etc.
