The first album I bought was "Little Deuce Coupe" by the Beach Boys. It
was a strange sort of album in that it was released after their third
album ("Surfer Girl") but was not considered their fourth album. It
repeated the three car songs from their first three albums ("409", "Shut
Down", "Little Deuce Coupe"), added some other car songs ("Cherry Cherry
Coupe", "Spirit of America" the Beach Boys get topical 8-)), and a few
strays such as "Be True To Your School". The Beach Boys were the first
rock concert I attended as well. The most recent concert I attended was
Kodo.
"Little Deuce Coupe". Sigh. Whoever posted the original question, thanks
for making me feel so old. And when was the last time you listened to the
first album you bought? Well, with all the surface noise that has
accumulated over the years, it was hard to tell which album I was hearing.
My first CD was "Angst" by Klaus Schultze. I wanted something by Tangerine
Dream, but the store I bought the CD player from had a VERY limited selection.
(But the salesperson did throw in "Computer World" by Kraftwerk.)

No, that K-Tel thing (Radio Active) wasn't the first album I bought
anyway... The first piece of music I bought was as I said, The Entertainer
on a 45. Then I think I bought another 45 with ELO's "Don't bring me down"...
Cool song. I think the first album I actually bought (I had copied a number
of tapes before...) was Asia's debut album. What a fantastic album to start
with...

The first album I ever bought with my own money was the Moody Blues' "Days of the Future Passed". Yes, it was a brand new album at the time. You older members of this list are in good company. -Karolchik
