So what were the first albums / singles you purchased with your pocket money when you were a nipper?
For me the first was Master of reality by Black Sabbath. The second was Number Of the Beast by Iron Maiden, not too embarrassing i think, so what did you buy back in the day?
Star Trekkin by The Firm 😳
Are you Danny Bowes?
This thread is giving me a strange feeling of deja vú.
I didn't get pocket money 🙁
I think it was Pink Floyd's Ummagumma.
Star Trekkin by The Firm
Have it on 7", it reliably sends the nippers mental.
A Kind Of Magic by Queen, then Troublegum by Therapy?, then Fear, Emptiness, Despair by Napalm Death. That escalated quickly...
First (vinyl) album - Kids from Fame
First 7" - Spies Like Us by Paul McCartney
First 12" - Rock Me Amadeus (joint purchase with older brother)
First CD - not totally sure but I *think* it was Led Zeppelin Remasters

Survivor - Eye of the tiger.
Obviously I was only 2 at the time. 😕
first album was actually bought myself was 'burning blue soul' by matt johnson
- its still one of my favourites and thats nothing to do with sentimentality.
Electro 5.
Beat Surrender 7" and various Jam albums. Then The Smiths, Billy Bragg, House martins and R.E.M. First CD was by R.E.M. Reckoning I think.
