Rubber Soul - The Beatles

Do you remember yours?

JFYI I am still awed by fax machines. I still have 100s of vinyl LPs. I remember 7 TV channels in NYC and you had to get up from your chair to change the channels.

This was my first purchase on a single CD player.

I think it was either "Funky Divas" (En Vogue) or a recording of the 1812 Overture that featured "digital cannons".

...digital cannons...

I always loved the Central Park concert at the end of summer. Always Tchaikovsky

I'm guessing it earned 8 or 9 %.

Wow, I was a cassete guy until about 88 or 89 but the year I bought my first cd player it wasn't compatable with my German made Marantz amp. That was a problem. My truck came with a cd player and I bought a bunch of cds. The one played the most was Guns n Roses for sure.

Wow ~ I still have lots of cassettes ~ and records too, (even 8 tracks in the attic! ) I remember Black &White only TV, 5 or 6 channels, and getting up to change channels. Anyone remember vice grips on the channel changer switch, (after the knob wore out )?? My first CD though, was of course Billy.

WHAT ELSE WOULD A JERSEY GIRL ANSWER???? BRUCE - Born in the USA

And I remember saving my babysitting money and walking to the Mall to buy my first album - Tapestry!

Still two of my favorites - the more things change the more they stay the same

I lived in England when I bought my first singles and I still have them in a box. I don't remember who they were from but I was a Frank Sinatra and Harry Belafonte fan and Latin American music plus I bought the most popular songs that I liked in that time period.

I bought a record player many years ago that supposedly could play old records to the computer but the sound was so scratchy that I gave up quickly. I had played them too many times.

The first vinyl album I owned was Disraeli Gears.

The first vinyl album I purchased was a recording of Sir Laurence Olivier reading Dickens' "A Christmas Carol". I bought that as a Christmas present for my parents when I was about ten years old.

The first vinyl LP I owned was The Monkees back when I was about 8 years old. I can't remember the first CD I ever bought but it may have been Mariah Carey's All I Want For Christmas is You.
Since I have XM radio I never listen to CDs anymore, and I use the music channels on the cable tv - classic rock mostly.

A spring chicken, you are. Mariah Carey hadn't even been born when I bought my first album.

First LP- Buddy Holly & the crickets. Have no idea what the first cd was, but it was 1985 or 1986 when I got my Fisher system or maybe a little before.
