what was the 1st LP you ever bought?
Led Zeppelin II, circa 1976, Athens city center

Do we mean album, regardless of format or actual vinyl album, because my first album was on cassette?

i was only 9
Album not the media - even 8-track tape is included
Paul Simon: Still Crazy After All These Years

I think i was 9 at the time,bought it on tape from Our Price,i think the price was 4.99.

From WHSmith on Erdington High Street. My mother confiscated the free poster before I'd even seen it.
Cool, Blues Brothers Soundtrack, don't know when, probably around 1989.
First vinyl(sort of) album was PWEI - Cure for Sanity on picture disc LP. Never played it...

In 1977, my sister got it for me, for Christmas, (I was 11), well that's what we told my parents - I bought it, my parents didn't approve

This would have been mine but Woolworths on Canvey Island were old out and I got the same Queen album as Simon - unbeknown to me at the time Jazz had a very large poster of naked women on bikes - no wonder my Dad agreed to the purchase!
and...
The History of The Hollies.

Yes, my Mum did the same with my poster. I think my elder brother stashed it away.
First LP: The Beatles 67-70
