your first vinyl?

mine was Scorpions - Wind Of Change. bought it when i was 10 or 11 at flea market. now i am 41 and i still love the song

The first one(s) I got (along with my older brother's former turntable) or the frist one i bought myself?

the first one u owned

your first record dude!

That would be a a whole batch of maybe 20 or more 7"s, to many to list them here.
But my first LP, that also came with that batch, was:
Whitesnake - Come An' Get It

I'm not sure, can't really now, but I think it might have been Aerosmith - Pump
long gone now, lost interest in that kind of music in my early teens
the earliest record I bought that I still have is probably The Prodigy - Fire / Jericho

ps, when I was that young, up to about 12 or so, I wasn't really allowed to use the house record player without supervision, so I would have bought cassettes more

bit of a theme, Scorpion, Aerosmith, Whitesnake....

Probably Iron Maiden - Somewhere in time in 1987

Renee Geyer - Moving Along around the time of its release to play on my first stereo. Made a nice change from a transistor radio!

2 albums, purchased in 1976 -
The Beatles – Yellow Submarine
https://discogs.versitio.com/release/7930421-The-Beatles-Yellow-Submarine

Various – America Sings (The Original Soundtrack Of The Disneyland Attraction)
https://discogs.versitio.com/release/6452760-Various-America-Sings-The-Original-Soundtrack-Of-The-Disneyland-Attraction

still have both!

Queen - Night at the Opera when it was released :)

Zebrahead - Get Nice!
Since I got myself a turntable only several years later, I never knew how bad it sounded until then. I'm glad I did not buy any following vinyl releases from that label.

Van halen 1st, when i was 18...before only cassettes

I always wanted to tell this story. I live in and in1967 I was constantly listening to music from my little transistor radio. When I heard The Casuals - Jesamine
There was a market near by selling fruits and vegetables. And .... there was a guy having a stall selling new LPs. He had a record player annd people were able to listen to the records. I took the chance and bought 4 LPs:
The Moody Blues - In Search Of The Lost Chord
So that were my first records, all bought at the same day.

This was my first record, I was 14 - The Specials - The Specials
This is my latest one, I'm 59 - Giorgos Katsaros* - Giorgos Katsaros

The thread to divulge s ages..................
The Beatles - I Feel Fine, it was in the charts so I got it.
My brother got his first vinyl, an album The Chipmunks - The Chipmunks Sing The Beatles Hits, which made me jealous.
On reflection I made the best choice.

Copped this one DJ Muggs vs. Sick Jacken* feat. Cynic - Legend Of The Mask And The Assassin on September 3rd 2009. Back in the day, I didn’t even have a turntable to play it on just bought it for the collection. Years later I had the chance to get it signed by them. I’d say it’s still in very good condition and has only been played a couple of times.
This thread brings back great memories! :D

In my teens I was heavily indoctrinated by the music taste of my older brother (punk, metal, stoner), and the CD's I bought at the time (Kyuss, NOFX, Pulp Fiction OST to name a few) went straight into my brothers collection. When I turned 18 in the early 00's I started going clubbing and spent a few hours behind the turntables of a friend of mine and was instantly hooked.

I proceeded to often listen to Dutch public radio on the weekends, when they were still broadcasting live from house and techno parties/festivals, and bought a few mix CD's/compilations to get an idea of what I really would like to DJ with; Dave Clarke, James Holden, Grooverider...

Few months later my friend brought me along to a local record store, and I bought this: Petter (5) - Untitled Acid EP. I wasn't aware at the time what acid was, and it took me a few years to get back to it, coincidentally :)

While I was first introduced to vinyl through my dad's old records, I think the first one I actually bought was $uicideboy$ - Sing Me A Lullaby, My Sweet Temptation

I bought it before I had a turntable, so it was mainly just for the art and to the artists, but 8 months later the snowball has started and I fell in love with the format.

It´s the same as my first ever record, I don´t understand why a new thread has een started for this?

Think it was happy hardcore & jungle. Happy Anthems Volume 1 was one of the first. But I also got a bunch of stuff with thrown in with my first decks and mixer. They actually turned out to quite good after years of not really appreciating them.

Was one of them. Bunch of bits like this. Funny thing is he thinks he I overpaid for the shitty setup.
it makes no sense but I would love to arrange my collection (like in High Fidelity) or rather "view" it in chronological order to when they were owned. Would be a real journey so to speak.

I'd guess because it was 8 year since the last reply before you recently posted in that thread.

Really First One Is Survive by Nuclear Assault. Guess 1987 or around

That´s right, nevertheless the thread was not locked, it´s up to everyone to continue :)

I being at flea market and saw Steal Your Face / Grateful Dead. Loved the cover design. Came to realize the music was awesome too. Believe that was 1976. My only regret was not being a serious collector. Like I am today.

In 1972 I bought Neil Diamond Hot August Night. I was 10 years old and have been collecting ever since. That very album is still in my collection but I did purchase a reissue a few years ago as it had been played on less than stellar equipment over the years. My most recent purchases of a new release was Ohio Players by The Black Keys, Pomegranate by Tess Parks and the Goat selftitled release.

First vinyl bought for me John Williams (4), The London Symphony Orchestra* - Star Wars
First vinyl I bought for myself Various - FM (The Original Movie Soundtrack)
I was 99% cassettes until I got my own stereo

The Buffalo Springfield* - For What It's Worth (Stop, Hey What's That Sound)

Been collecting music since I was a little kid, however, the first vinyl record that I bought myself I found at a now-closed record store called "Respin Records" about 12 years ago or so. They had a room called the "dig room" full of playable, but not-so-good quality vinyl. I decided on Blind Faith (2) - Blind Faith and a ridiculous amount of money later, I'm still collecting.

Vancouvers - Quintessential

Bobkuhlman
smwhthdBlind Faith (2) - Blind Faith

That's a great one to start with!

Right! Man.. Crazy enough the very first record player I used was my oldest sister's old plastic, basic one that she let me borrow. That's funny.

I always wanted to tell this story. I live in and in 1967 I was...

If I may ask, why did he not allow you to buy records?

BlackRat
my father did allow me to buy records

He did allow, but you had to bring it back?

First single
Slade - Gudbuy T' Jane

First LP
Various - 22 Dynamic Hits - Vol. II Formative, I was 9, instantly loved Looking Glass, T. Rex and especially Argent - Tragedy. That was it for life, music love.

First album
Wings (2) - Venus And Mars Wanted to get Band on the Run but wasn’t allowed to due to “prisoners” on the album cover. Auld auntie was in charge that day. Venus and Mars excellent thankfully.

First Prog
Yes - Close To The Edge Completely blew my mind aged 13.

This Yello - Lost Again was my first 7", because it was cheaper as usual in my next electronic shop :)

Forgotten, my first 12" Maxi New Order - Blue Monday I´m still listening to it :-)

Guys, I'm very sorry. I forgot the most important word in my text. I edited the text and inserted 'not'. 'My father did not allow me to buy records. When he heard The Beatles or Elvis Presley he always talked of 'jungle music'. He didn't want me to connect with this music. Of course the opposite happened.
Again, sorry folks.

The first vinyl records I bought in January 2018 were a handful of 7" singles:
Koreana - Hand In Hand

First LP came in September 2018:
Roxy Music - Avalon

Bobkuhlman
thirdsystemFirst Prog
Yes - Close To The Edge Completely blew my mind aged 13.

Nice!!! I was 16 and saw them on the tour after that album was released in 1972. Rick Wakeman's keyboard solo also blew my mind. I still the feeling like I was in another world. ( I'm sure pot also helped with that feeling. )

Superb Bob. Yes touring Close to the Edge, wow.

I eventually got to see my favourite band of all time in the 90s . YES , twice at the Armadillo in Glasgow. Even dragged my wife the second time. She loved it.

Introducing the Beatles on VeeJay along with Let it Be. Beatles forever! First 45 (for what it's worth)

Around 1988 in to a shop in Como..

The very first album I owned myself. I bought it at a garage sale when I was 7 in 1990 because the cover was cool. My grandfather was a country western guy so he always went through records and I'd look to at the covers. Cost me 50 cents with money I made from raking leaves. I didn't even have a record player myself till I was 12 but grandfather would let me play stuff I got on his when I was over. Even if he didn't like the music he'd always listen with me.

The Felons, The Mopeds (3), The Strikers (4), Swift Kick (4), The Oozkicks, Trained Animal, The Zanti Misfits - Test Patterns

The first record I bought with my own money was the original release of Kraftwerk - Autobahn and the record itself was G+ haha

My first vinyl record was Magnus Moriarty™ - U R On A Radar which was don't available digitally at that moment then i decided to buy turntable and it has been the starting point of journey trough vinyl records that i love so much <з

yes, you did, when 100 idiots think to have their own thread for their "1st vinyl", then do you add your first to each thread?

metallica ride the lightning

2 LPs at the same time:
Kraftwerk - Computerwelt
and
Udo Lindenberg - Meine Panik – Seine Größten Panik Hits

This always makes me think of that Family Guy episode where Stewie is freaked out by the cover. 😄

Would be nice when the editors would use links for their releases too!

My first ever vinyl was Mantovani And His Orchestra - Granada, interesting how the only 7" release of this song was in the Netherlands
