Cool Childhood Memory

My son heard this the other day and thought of the B52s

I told him to grab a buncha Henry Mancini stuff.

Best pure rock'n roll song ever

[Smackie Chan]

Kicked off Saturday's show with Duane Eddy's version.

The first three albums I ever bought. All mono. I still have them too.

[Roach]

Not quite a child then, but

[Screw_Michigan]

This was the first album I ever bought, in 1992. I can't remember the second one I bought.

[Sudden Sam]

Mancini, Herb Alpert, and thank goodness, an occasional Thelonius Monk or Sonny Rollins LP caught my ear emanating from my parents’ shitty console stereo. Blew my mind when my dad complimented the Beatles.

[Diego in Seattle]

My first album purchase (for $5):

[Mikey]

Not quite a child then, but

I got that one too.

[Sudden Sam]

For you Donovan fans, if you’ve never heard ‘Open Road’, remedy that omission immediately!

It’s a fantastic album. Every song is damn good.

[Mikey]

A Donovan concert was the first date I ever went on with a girl. I think I was 14, and her father drove us to the show and picked us up afterwards. Merry Clayton was the opening act.

[The Seer]

Can't recall 1st album purchase...scraped enough to afford 45's in the day. But I'll NEVER forget my first concert. My friend's Mom had to drive us there......
