I think I bought the first to albums too very shortly afterwards (Blondie and Plastic Letters) and they are both great. More punky, less polished but some superb tracks on them. Would strongly recommend

Aye Blondie’s a classic, X Offender and In the Flesh especially top notch

The live version of Popscene on that is fantastic. Also the track Bustin’ and Dronin’ is great.

The first album I bought was Pulp – Different Class, and it is a bona fide classic. Still in my top 10.

The first CD i received for Christmas was Elephunk by Black Eyed Peas. Still pretty good, humbly in my opinion

Then i started reeling in the paper on my paper round, the first one I bought for myself at HMV was either the first Vampire Weekend one or The Black and White Album by The Hives

God yeah a mate of mine was OBSESSED with that Hives record when it came out.

My sister got it for me in Canada. Had that rubbish bonus track on it.

I also had 36 Chambers taped for me, off vinyl. Weird buying it a few years later and realising I’d been listening to it in the wrong order.

First album I bought with my own £££s was Smash Hits of the 80s on vinyl - would be unlikely to listen to it in its entirety, but the tracks from it that I liked at the time are indelibly inked into my consciousness forever as a result of how often I played it.

First CD I bought was Broken by Nine Inch Nails. Still love it to death and think it’s easily the best thing he’s ever done. Might listen to it right now in fact…

It’s alright, although once you’ve heard one, you’ve heard them all

#73

Kick is a great album. Elegantly Wasted is another great tune.

First five albums would be something like:

Footrot Flats soundtrack (film version of classic NZ farm-based cartoon). Would not listen.
Bon Jovi - Slippery When Wet: I’ll still jump around to Livin’ on a Prayer in the right mood, but would never listen to the album
Genesis - Genesis:haven’t played it in a million years but could probably give it a whirl.
Midnight Oil - Diesel and Dust: ditto
Queen - Greatest Hits Vol I. Some bona fide classics here for sure.

First one I’d really happily listen to is Strangeways Here We Come.

Got that on vinyl at home. Sure, it was a hand-me-down, but it gets a fairly regular outing.

First album I bought with my own money was the first Gorillaz album, haven’t listened to it in years but I’d give it a spin

#79

I think it was either the Blue Album or In Utero. The first album that was given to me as a gift was Robbie Williams’ I’ve Been Expecting You which I remember being a bit miffed by because Angels wasn’t on it…

Got really fond memories of playing Donkey Kong Country to this!

I used to love playing Pilotwings on the SNES whilst listening to Jellyfish
