Cooper Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 The 1st record I purchased was: House of the Rising Sun by the Animals. Still remember the words but probably didn’t understand them when I was a young teenager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruthBTold Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 The first record I purchased was Gladys Knight and the Pips' Imagination. Mainly for this song. I think it was 73 or 74. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4KZs0mLJiQ + Charlie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurof Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Abbey Road. My record had a skip during Maxwell's Silver Hammer for the "Creeps Up From Behind" line, so I didn't know for years what I was missing! I would only buy 8-track tapes for a good while because of that. TruthBTold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big-n-tall Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Well the first record I remember buying with my saved up allowance was a single record. I wasnot even a teen yet. It was Jermaine Stewart’s “We don’t have to take our clothes off.” A girl I had a crush on loved the song and we’d listen to it together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+ azdr0710 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 (edited) don't know if it was the very, very first 45 I ever bought (45s are all we ever got when I was 8 or 9), but I think I bought this about then.....might still have it with my old childhood junk in a box around here somewhere Edited March 2, 2021 by azdr0710 samhexum, thomas and BabyBoomer 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My sisters and I all bought our own individual copies, I can't think why now. So you could each have your own individual fantasies of Donny when you slept with the record.

I actually took this 45 to school for social studies when I was 8. I don't remember what the assignment was, but I remember the reason was that it talked about societal issues.
