First Album you bought

Bought Aslan- Made in Dublin and Oasis- Morning Glory the same day!!! ;)

Music was ****e in our house. Never used to hear any good music and was 14 before I think I realised what an album was. I had a funky next door neighbour who used to have laods of cool tunes banging out her room. She gave me a compilation with the Stone Roses Blur Oasis CHemical Brothers Suede and The Charlatans, oh and some Joy Division as well. Promptly went out and bought The Stone Roses and Exit Planet Dust.
:cool:

Schools Out by Alice Cooper, I know showing my age here. The LP was wrapped in a pair of panties.

U2-Achtung Baby!

I cant remember the name of it but it was something by the Shamen :o

I got one of those collections by collecting Twix wrappers, late 80's me thinks.

almost as old as you. First album "Mud's Greatest Hits" :p

Didn't read through the thread - are "bought" and "copied" the same thing?! :p

First copied - Sex Pistols - "Never Mind The ********"
First bought - REM - "Automatic for the People". Which I've since given away...

Though I do remember that late 80s Kylie album ("I Should Be So Lucky", "Locomotion", "Je Ne Se Pas Pourquios" (I never learnt French...)) lying around our house and being listened to... :o ;)

Did you score with her?

You should've tried their first album for starters...

I'm one of those rare breed that think wtsmg is better than dm :)

Morning Glory is the masterpiece.
Much more accomplished album.
Thought that was the general consensus though.

would have been the general concenus till around 3 4 years ago . not helped by the fact that noel has said that dm was by far the better album .

I only own one Oasis album, and it's DM. I'm sure morning glory is more accomplished, but that's not the attraction with the first album. It's more about the arrogance (which I know still exists in bucketloads), the rawness, and at a time when it came out, the place wasn't awash with britpop.

I lost a lot of respect for them when they sacked the drummer for his lack of technical ability. I mean, the rest of them were hardly Pink Floyd, and his 'style' suited the simplicity of their songs (lots of strumming of barre chords, in time with banging of drum)

First CD was Duran Duran's epoymous album (1993 I think was the original release date) and I suspect that like James my first cassette (and by extension my first album ever) was 'Bad' by Michael Jackson.

first album----u2/boy
first single-nik kershaw-wouldnt it be good :o
