Your First Record, Tape & CD

First cassette tape: either 'Abbey Road' or The White Album - got them both at about the same time and I honestly cannot remember which I got first.

First LP: 'American Woman' by the Guess Who.

First CD: Susan Aglukark's 'This Child'. (Or was it the kitschy compilation of 'space' themes? Or the Gregorian Chants? Oh well: pick one.)

First concert: Beach Boys.

CD
Ray Stevens Collection.

Yeah, nothing all that impressive...

Ray Stevens is good. If it's the one I'm thinking of, at least. The one who did "The Streak" and "Ahab the Arab." I like him.

This was my first record I ever bought ~ the first track on the album scared the hell out of me as it was the first time I'd ever heard stereo sound!

I still have it. Of course.

And the Moody Blues are still great.

Concerts: I have never been to one at all. Strange but true.

Tape: I can't remember what was the first tape I bought.

Record/LP: never bought one, Apparently I was fierce in my youth for scratching up my father's Jim Reeves records which I played over and over and over.

Cassette/Tape: Twisted Sister: Stay Hungry

CD: R.E.M.: Fables of the Reconstruction

Never been to a concert.

First LP: "Paranoid" by Sabbath- I was 6, and my cousin dared me to listen to it with the lights off, and we listened to it in the dark until the fear wore off. THATwas the impact of Sabbath in '71 or so!

First cassette: I think it was "Blizzard of OZ" by Ozzy, possibly "Piece of Mind" by Maiden.

First CD: Can't even remember.

First concert: B.O.C. or Bad Company/Foghat.

First mosh pit kick-down: '88 or '89 SoundGarden at "The Country Club" in Reseda.

That wasn't my first, but it was probably one of the first 5 tapes I bought.
