LP or CD the first one you remember buying as a child.

For me it was 1963 when I bought the Byrds turn, turn, turn album.

For Hard Rock it was Led Zeppelin I and II on the same day in 1970.

For Metal Black Sabbath's Paranoid a couple years later.

The first album I bought was Alice In Chains - Facelift when I was 10.
Before that I just had Mums records.

I was given all my albums as gifts up until I was about 13. I bought Nirvana In Utero with some birthday money...way back in 1993, shortly after it was released! I skipped class and went downtown to buy it at this store called Turk's.

My first album was Dark Side Of The Moon. It really weirded me out at the time, I was only 9 or 10.

I wanted to tear my teeth out. I didn't know what I wanted to do. And I want to remember it. I never want to forget it. I never want to forget. And then I realized... like I was shot... like I was shot with a diamond... a diamond bullet right through my forehead. And I thought: My God... the genius of that.

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.

Bing Crosby's "White Christmas".
