Think I bought slam jam from the WWF?

 

[Knightsworld]

I think it was this:

 

[B.W.]

Heatwave - Boogie Nights! :safeway:

 

[severnside gull]

I keep scrolling past this thread taxing my memory for my first ever record purchase and after much angst I think it was probably "There is a Rose in Spanish Harlem" by Ben E King in about 1961 and heavily influenced by my older brother who was in to American R&B.

 

[Dave the OAP]

Sugar sugar. Archie's

I used to buy cassettes when I was younger but my first vinyl single was Hymn by Ultravox in 1982. Even got it signed when I went to see Midge Ure live at the Crawley Leisure Centre in 1985. We sneaked in early and bumped into the band and also saw the sound check.

I use to tape a lot of singles off the radio before that.

 

[JamesAndTheGiantHead]

I wish I was joking.

One of my all time favourites

 

[tweenster]

David Bowie - Rebel Rebel. Not too bad, certainly not shameful.

 

[Sir Norman Gull]

The Devil's Answer - Atomic Rooster (1971-they were an offshoot of the Crazy World of Arthur Brown , Carl Palmer of ELP was in the group prior to this single but left before this single to join ELP-ironically my first LP was Tarkus by ELP-I was a bit of a Prog Rocker in those days!)

 

[SULLY COULDNT SHOOT]

Sheena Easton - 9 to 5 ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh the embarrassment.

I was more into recording off the radio than wasting my money... that or nicking pannini stickers

Scratch that... checked the dates and in fact it was Everyday hurts by Sad Cafe... not embarrassed by that at all...
