I'm thinking this might have to be in mother parakitamol's musical confessions but mine was:

Dave Lee Roth - Eat 'em and Smile (on Vinyl)

Still got it, haven't listened to it for yonks though.

My first album was received rather than bought - though remains, over 30 years later, one of my favourite of all time:

Deep Purple - In Rock

Mine was "Fireball"

[nonplussed]

Eric Clapton, Just One Night, bought in HMV in Oxford St in 1987. Still have it, and still one of my all-time favourites.

"Guess I was wrong becuase you fled, leaving me with my Michelin guide & half empty foreign bed,"

Don't know why but one of my favourite song lyrics ever.

The first I actually bought for myself I think was Michael Jackson's 'Bad' on cassette.

The first I ever owned and was given as a present was Johnny Hates Jazz in the late 80s when I was about 7.... I may have asked for it but I don't remember!
