We missed Record Store Day the other day, but it got me thinking, can you remember what the first piece of music you bought was?
And was it on tape/CD/MP3/vinyl/8 track/wax cylinder?
The first 12" I bought was Paul McCartney and the Frog Chorus (1984)
The first 7" I bought was Sly Fox - Let's Go All The Way (1985)
So what was yours? Let us know.

I didn't buy a lot of music early on because when I was growing up it was pre-iTunes but post-internet so (illegally) pirating music was "in"
I think the first CD I purchased was probably something classical like The Planets (Holst)

haha, I have no idea what you mean @66Mustang
I've edited it to include MP3s for all you hip youngsters.1 -
I can't remember which of these two I bought first, but they're equally high brow classics. It was Aqua - Aquarium or Spice Girls.
Both on cassette tape, but I went on to buy the exact same Spice Girls album on CD too

First single was at the age of 12 in 1979 .. Up The Junction by Squeeze (still play them regularly)
First album ... Parallel Lines by Blondie
Haven't stopped since. I can go days without watching TV but music has been my friend/release/ safe guard for so many years1 -

Though the first tape I remember buying myself, and even the store & till I bought it from, was Shanks & Bigfoot - Sweet Like Chocolate.
