The first Reggae album I ever heard right through was Survival
by Bob Marley. That got me into this new type of heavy reggae. (it was heavy at the time, as I'd grew up listening to reggae on the radio. artists such as Johnny Nash, John Holt & Desmond Decker).

I'm finding hard to recall the first reggae album I ever bought. I remember buying The Specials by The Specials, You just can't stop it - The Beat & Signing Off - UB40 amongst others.
It was around this time that I got right into Ska/Reggae. I started listening to less Punk once the ska/reggae vibe hit me.
Still with me now over 25 years later.
