I think I probably had the Smurf Album, but I dont recall buying it for myself...the question is which album did YOU first but with your own dough.

Hey Hiney, good Music taste as mine was Meaty Beaty Big and Bouncy as well and then the ELP first album, which I think was called 'ELP' which must have taken them a while to think up.

 

[hart's shirt]

Mine was Now thats what I call music the first one. I still have it today on vinyl.

Me too. Some very diverse songs on there - Madness 'The Sun and the Rain', New Edition's 'Candy Girl', Kajagoogoo 'Big Apple', Simple Minds 'Waterfront', The Cure 'Love Cats', Culture Club 'Victims'...

Nostalgia, eh?

The wonders of the internet, it was EMBASSY not K-TEL. The blurb says the Beatles cover versions were good, you can have a listen for yourself but they sound pretty shit to me

The Woolworths Virtual Museum : Hits of the Sixties

Don't care what the internet says, it was K-Tel. Never even HEARD of Embassy.

 

[Icy Gull]

Don't care what the internet says, it was K-Tel. Never even HEARD of Embassy.

No you misunderstand me The COVER versions were on Embassy

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

No you misunderstand me The COVER versions were on Embassy

Ah right. I therefore accept your apology for poor use of English

 

[Braders]

think it was the Euro 96 cd - The Beautiful Game as my first album

first single - Babylon Zoo , Spaceman

 

[medicine man]

"My Generation" by The Who from Boots in Worthing in about '82.

Had to wait an age to update to cd as shortly after the pressing I bought Shel Tamy stole back the masters and refused it to be pressed due to some 'Legal Matter' (see what I did there?), and was only issued on CD a few years back. Quality album.
