I have blocked out of my mind the real first album I purchased though it was a..Gary Glitter album with birthday money at 12yrs old  Urgh!



If it was the one with the dark blue, glittery cover - I was bought that as a Christmas present!

First single - Monster Mash by Bobby Cricket & The Crypt Kicker Five

First Album - The Best Of Uriah Heep

my first single was Pocorn by Hot Butter from 1972. I must check my Dad's loft..its probably still there)

 

my first album was Hawkwind's Warrior on the Edge of Time with the fabulous double gatefold sleeve that opened into a shield.

Good to see you bareing your soul with Neil Diamond, Fragile. In view of the crooner he became, it easy to forget that in the early 70's he did have a fair degree of credibility. His "Gold" and "Taproot manuscript" albums were early purchases of mine, and I still enjoy them today.

 

Gold was his live LP from the late 60's with great tracks like; Kentucky Woman, Solitary Man, Holly holy, Cherry Cherry and a fabulous version of He Aint Heavy He's My Brother. Taproot Manuscript was a very original piece of music. Pity he chose an almost cabaret path to follow thereafter.Thanks for reminding me of these Easy Livin' , I still have Gold and Tap on vinyl , must give them a re-listen.

Threefates, was Play Me on the same Lp as Canta Libre?

Oh my, 45's! Ha

My first 45 was Snoopy and the Red Baron. I can't remember who recorded that one, but that was it.

Danbo:

"Snoopy vs The Red Baron" was by The Royal Guardsmen.  (I have the single.)

Anyone remember the groups who did the following?:

"Little Red Riding Hood"
"Kind of A Drag"
"Winchester Cathedral"
"My Pledge of Love"
"Red Rubber Ball"
"With a Girl Like You"
"Mr. Dieingly Sad"
"Come On Down to My Boat Baby"
"They're Coming to Take Me Away"
"Lady Willpower"
"Hitchin' A Ride"

10 points for each, but you can't use the Internet!

Peace.

P.S.  I just found that I have the 45 - the 45! - of "In the Dead of Night" by U.K.  Is that weird, or what?

Fragile got the ones I recognised, we'll be Googling shortly Maani!

Garry Puckett (of the Union Gap) had a great voice by the way. Wish he'd joined a prog band.LOL
