What was the first music you ever bought

[low-key]

my first memory is a partridge family album , also about the same time I bought a 45 of Bridge over Troubled waters, but I leantrde a big comsumer lesson at a young age, as I assumned it was Simon and Garfunkel but when I got home found out it was Buck Owens rendition of the song

I think it would be a Shaun Cassidy - Shadow Dancing That's Rock & Roll To Me

I think it might have been Wilson Phillips second album, on cassette.

Most of my early music were gifts. Good thing of having a brother 7 years older. The first thing I remember buying myself was The Dirty Dancing Soundtrack on cassette.

K-Tel were original artists

I bought my son Kidz Bop CDs. Those were Terrible.

HAHA. No but wrong song though. I looked it up real quick (I have a play list of all the 45's I own) and mixed them up.

Shaun Cassidy - That's Rock & Roll To Me

The first record I ever bought was Mickey Mouse Splashdance and I requested that it be played to the point where I'm pretty sure my dad just threw it away one day, lol.

When that came out, my sister, (14 years old at the time, I was 20) bought it, played it incessantly, especially I Want to Hold Your Hand. I hated it!!!! However, over the years, I have learned to really enjoy their music, all of it. Including I Want to Hold Your Hand. They are probably the best musical group in history.

Bought? Beastie Boys: License to ILL.
Owned? Michael Jackson: Thriller
But honestly? It was Berenstain Bears Spooky Old Tree in my Sweet Fisher-Price tape recorder.
My first CD was Garth Brooks, I can't recall which album it was. Maybe Ropin' the Wind?
