On topic:- My older sister could be relied on to buy any Beatles material that came out, so I deployed my money to good effect on an album that no-one else in my family would be buying: The Kinks self-titled debut, which I picked up in a secondhand shop. I was ten or eleven at the time and not ready to commit to a full-priced album. Released in 1964, the album was retitled "You Really Got Me" in the USA - and No, I think I donated it to an Oxfam shop many years ago.

Music when you were six? Wow! All I had at that age was a multicoloured single of I think Burl Ives singing "Windmill in old Amsterdam!" (B-side was "The Ugly Bug Ball" --- loved it!)

Pfft, the only cassettes that I have randomly found are some mixtapes that a friend of mines from high school used to make.
My first cassette was Green Day's "Dookie".

I think my first band CD was Invincible by 5ive. Not completely sure. Probably had a few Now That's What I Call Music compilations before that though.
And I don't still have them regrettably.

I don't remember which came first but the the first two albums I ever remember having were The Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club by The Beatles and Low by David Bowie- both on cassette. I used to listen to them every day until they were lost during a move. Like Andrei I still have the first copy of "Dookie" I got back when I was 13.

my first collection. This is one of my favorites. Best album for me so far.

Interesting that so many of you cite music on cassette as your first medium. I had tapes too of course, but can't really remember now if they were before or after my albums. Given how cheap, in relative terms, a ghetto blaster or Walkman was compared to buying a stereo system (even a crappy midi one) I'd imagine I had tapes first. I know I had a cassette of "Out of the blue", though whether or not I bought it before "Discovery" I can't say. I do know that I don't still have it (though I do on vinyl, gatefold sleeve and all) as one dark day it got twisted and caught in my tape deck (brand new) and that was the end of that. Unfortunately, once a tape got tangled that was usually the end of it.
