What was the first record you bought?

'Rubber Ball' by Bobby Vee

Catch the Wind, Donovan

See Emily Play; Pink Floyd. Still one of my favourite songs.

Cliff Richard EP, Expresso Bongo! I played it endlessly, was 12 years old at the time.

I watched that film at the Embassy cinema in my local town. My grandma was the usherette

Blue Moon by Elvis. My dad 'accidentally' sat on it.

I think it was 'Rock around the Clock' Bill Haley and the Comets.

'Albatross' by Fleetwood Mac' and I still love it

Diana by Paul Anka -

Donald where's yer Troosers- I was young!

grannyeggs my mother loved that one. Was it Andy Stewart? 'Let the wind blow high, let the wind blow low'!!!!!!!!

First single was The Carnival is Over by the Seekers.

First LP was the one with the psychedelic cover by The Move.

FBI by the Shadows
The whole process of going into Neil & Hardy's in Stockport, listening to the record in the booth and passing over my saved up pocket money ( I was 12) felt like an initiation ceremony.....

What do you want if you want money? Adam Faith!

I'm into something good-Herman's Hermits......and strangely the first line is 'Woke up this morning feeling fine'!

"Diana" by Paul Anka as well! I was only 9 at the time though, think my parents bought it for me - but it was mine!

Some great songs in that list. Pls keep them coming. Nostalgia alley!

jane I remember Neil and Hardy's. we would go in there in the 60s and would also hang around The Toggery boutique, hoping to see pop stars like the Hollies, or George Best

I bought a fab jacket in the Toggery in the Beatles style!

Love Letters in the Sand by Pat Boone was my first record.

Beatles We can work it out.

Little Red Monkay when I was about nine.

Monkey

Lets Dance by Chris Montez and Not Fade Away by Rollng Stones first LP which I still have was With the Beatles played in my room after finding it in mum's wardrobe hidden amongst Christmas presents,it was quickly put back into the sleeve when I heard mum coming in from work at 5pm.
I've still got a lot of Del Shannon and early mowtown records which I used to buy in the record shop in Liverpool as soon as I got paid on a Friday before we went to Cavern for the T-time group before we got the Ferry back over the River,if my dad knew where we had been I would have been in trouble

I had Boom Bang a Bang by Lulu given to me as a Birthday Present, but the 1st record I bought was Everlasting Love by Love Affair I think around 1967/68
