Scarlette Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 I've never owned a record - they were made in "the good old days", so I'm told. But the first CD I ever owned was the soundtrack to Grease. Those summer nights.... *sighs*... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrissy Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Mine was Little Jimmy Osmond and 'Long Haired Lover From Liverpool'! The first one I bought for myself, with money I had earned was 'I'll Find My Way Home' by Jon & Vangelis. I can still remember most of the lyrics for both songs! YES I am un-young!

chesilbeach Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 The first tapes I remember actually buying myself were No Parlez by Paul Young and Fantastic by Wham!, but the first record I bought with money I earned in my first Saturday job (as opposed to birthday present money or pocket money) was A New England by the late, and much missed, Kirsty MacColl - all purchased from my local Woolworths.

Charm Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 The first record I bought was Money Money Money by Abba along with Cars by Gary Numan, both 7" singles. I remember playing them over and over again on my Dad's record player, if you kept the arm up they just kept repeating Now I feel old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
