First album you ever owned and first band you ever loved.

One of these was the first album I ever owned. Oh, what times.

First band love was probably Misfits, Black Flag, Nofx or as with many, Nirvana.

First album. 1984 on cassette. Used to listen to it on my paper round! Own it on C.D and I still think there are a cracking couple of tunes on there:

First band I loved though were these around 1981 and I owned a lot of their singles:

Pretty much every girl who was young in the late 90s ****ing loved the Spice Girls. It's like a universal code, if you say to one girl when they're mentioned "Oh I was Posh!" you'll automatically be bffs because they'll have played Spice Girls too

I still love the Spice Girls, **** yeah. I was pretty heartbroken when I missed them

First album...

The band was also the first band I ever loved, and I still love them to this day.

I only saw them once. My older sister took me to see them in 1997 when i'd just turned 11. Liam didn't make it to the gig though cos of a voice problem or something so it was Noel who fronted the band. I still enjoyed it though

First album was a best of cassette from The Beach Boys purchased around 1985 or 86.

First band I ever 'loved' was Bon Jovi.

Love is a strong word, though. I loved the album Slippery When Wet, thought the follow-up New Jersey was alright, and that was the end of my 'love' affair with this band.

Perhaps a more accurate first 'love' would be Poison, though I think I started listening to them after Bon Jovi. But I liked them more and for longer.

Either way,

. I had a poster similar to that on my wall.

The first album I ever owned, strictly via it being the first one I ever physically claimed as mine, was a Folsom Prison Blues vinyl with Johnny Cash.
When I was a kid, my uncle gave my parents an old record jukebox that played both records and 8-tracks, and there were about 20 records to go with it. I would listen to all the records and it so happened that I liked the Cash record the most, so I asked my parents if I could have and take care of that record. They let me.

I had that record until my parents became Christians.. then they sold the record player and destroyed all the records, including mine. During their Christianity stint, I wouldn't own another piece of secular music until their divorce, and it happened to be a cassette of an Epitaph Records compilation. That's when I started getting into punk.
