Does it have to be an LP or a CD? What about a cassette? Yeah, that's right, I grew up in the 80s. All the music I bought was on cassette.

Anyway, the first cassette I ever bought was "Document" by REM when I was in 4th grade back in 1987, when that album was brand spanking new.

I didn't own a CD player until the fall of 1992. The first CD I ever bought was "Swing the Heartache" by Bauhaus. I remember I didn't have much money on me and had to choose between buying dinner or buying the CD. Even though I was really, really hungry I figured I'd be happier the next day if I bought the CD so I went for it.

And I think the first record I ever purchased was "Meddle" by Pink Floyd. I was in 7th grade so that would make the year 1989 or 1990.
