Moderators dtel Posted December 8, 2012 Moderators Share Posted December 8, 2012 I can only remember a few The same exact same Grand funk and Led Zeppelin, and a Chicago and Santana but not sure what the last two were, It's been a looong time, don't have any of them anymore. If I remember correctly [:S] that was around when FM radio got a popular rock station in New Orleans, WRNO the rock of New Orleans, it was called. They even had what they called album hour on Fridays where they would play one side at a time without interruptions, that was a big deal.

HDBRbuilder Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 First LP: one by the Ventures Second LP: Insight Out by the Association...still a great album Otherwise all my first records were 45 rpm: Day Tripper/We Can Work it Out by the Beatles; Kicks by Paul Revere and the Raiders; I can't remember the rest, but I generally bought one or two 45 records each week in the mid to late 1960's...starting around 1965-66. I had a few hundred by the time I joined the Army in 1972. And a nice collection of LPs by then, too! -Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvel Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Can't remember when I got MY first LPs. Probably some Kingston Trio or Smothers Brothers... I know between my brother and myself we ended up with around 20 of the Kingston Trio albums. That's how I learned to play guitar. The first Stones album was Satanic Majesties Request.

oscarsear Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 This is tough. I know I did not buy any Stones or Beatles. My cousin always bought those and I'd borrow his as needed. I recall owning Hendrix, Zepplin, Moody Blues, Small Faces, Donovan, Steve Miller, Doors, Spirit, Santana, Canned Heat, Cream, the 1st Iron Butterfly..... Which 10 came 1st? Very hard to say. My parents had lots of LP's as did my older brother. They all got co-mingled. The household stereo was of much better quality than the TV. JBL D130's and Fisher/Garrard.

Doors: Morrison Hotel, Beatles Abbey Road, Past Masters Vol. 2-(was initially released on vinyl & cassette under another name, can't recall the original title).

oscarsear Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 That'd be it. Here's a few additional notables. John Mayal' 'Bluesbreakers, 'Vincebus Eruptum' by Blue Cheer, 'Birth of a Beat' by Sandy Nelson (my parents owned this one) and Herb Alpert and his Tijuana Brass. The parents owned a small stack of 45's that included Jorgen Ingmanns version of 'Apache'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fini Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 The first one I bought with my own money was "A Session With Gary Lewis and the Playboys." I always liked the photo on the back of the cover, where Gary's Dad (comedian Jerry Lewis) was seated, checking out the records, while Gary stood by. It seemed Gary was really craving his Dad's approval. Before that, I'd received Chipmunk albums ("AAAALVIIIIN!!"), The Sword in the Stone soundtrack, etc. Of course my older sister was buying Beatled albums, while my brother leaned toward folk (Dylan, Pete Seeger, Peter Paul and Mary). I still love 'em all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
