Barenaked Ladies' album "Stunt"

still one of the best CDs I've ever owned.

I've been a BNL fan ever since (well...I was before I bought the album, but still)

Shit I think it was either Slipknots self titled album or an Iron Maiden album. Actually it could have been Korns take a look in the mirror I honestly don't remember. Oh and I was like in 1st or 2nd grade around this time... I was an interesting kid.

Well, buying albums isn't really a thing I did because any music I listened to I bummed off my parents/ older siblings, and when iTunes came around I still listened to whatever music my older siblings got. I've only ever purchased one album, on iTunes: George Carlin's Parental Advisory: Explicit Lyrics. No regrets.

Green Day's Dookie

I was 6, that was about 19 years ago (damn I'm old) but, it started me on the path to be the Punky I am today.

I forget if my first was the Men in Black soundtrack or Ozzy Osbourne's No More Tears (not affiliated with Johnson and Johnson). Looking back I wonder why I bought MiB.

First album i bought was properly black album with Metallica.
I had to cover Enter Sandman LONG AGO as a lesson in during music-class and it was "simplified" so beginners would be able to play the song so I decided to checked out the original cut and it blew me away

I think it was "Are You Experienced" by Jimi Hendrix ...and if it wasn't then it should have been.
Although my tastes have subsequently run more toward punk, triphop and Italian opera it's still one of my all-time faves.

Daft Punk's "Alive 1997". If that doesn't count as an 'album' per se, then I would say Led Zeppelin I.

I don't recall the first album I bought, but I vividly remember the first album that was mine. I got Daft Punk's Discovery for my birthday. Still my favourite album of all time.

oh man, that's a long long long long time ago,
before the wind before the snow
Nah I kid, The Peppers were my fathers love, I picked it up from him. The first album I myself bought because I wanted to must have been the first black eyed peas album. I listen to their music no longer. The first CD I bought that I still agree with must be Ecliptica, by Sonata Arctica. Easily their best work.

The last CD I bought was 'The Man Who Sold Himself', by O5ric and Gavin Harrison.
I had quite the musicl journey. This was a week ago. I can really recommend it if you're into jazz with a slightly metal ring to it.

The first album I personally ever bought on my own? It was a Blink-182 album, I think their "greatest hits" or something...They had just broken up I think when I started listening to them. Eventually that lead to Linkin Park, then that kind of spiraled into Papa Roach, Disturbed, Dope, followed by several christian rock bands and then of course "oldies" or classic rock from my parents, like Alice Cooper or ACDC or Aerosmith, you know.

I can't remember exactly the first one I bought. It was either Demon Days by Gorillaz (I've since bought all of their albums) or American Idiot by Green Day. I fell in love with both of these bands as soon as I heard their music.

Before I had actually bought any albums out of personal choice I found The Fat of the Land by Prodigy among my dad's extensive northern soul collection. This probably explains my love of most EDM I hear.

Slightly related: The only other instance where I've bought all a band's albums was with Slipknot. I had a bit of an emo phase when I was 12 and it's now the only metal I can really listen to.

First album was 'Mister Mister - Go On' on cassette. I totally rocked out to 'Stand and Deliver' until I snapped the ribbon from overuse and a cheap player.

First CDs I ever bought was 'Mighty Mighty Bosstones - Don't Know How to Party' and 'Blues Traveler - four'. What can I say? I'm ecclectic.

First "concert album" I've bought was 'Blue Man Group- Audio' while walking out of their Boston Theatre venue, as well as an autographed (one of the players kissed a corner) painting from a prior performance that's up on our wall, now.

Most recent purchase was Vicci Martinez's newest album off of iTunes. I loved her performances from The Voice (that and Sing Off are the only two reality performance shows I'll watch from start to end in a season.) and was tickled to find a new album available so soon.

Mine was the backstreet boys, I was in my teens and they were the "hot" thing to teen girls. Uuuggg I snapped that cd in half after like five years.

Er... checking my iTunes "Purchased" thingy, the answer to this is apparently Dreamt for Light Years in the Belly of a Mountain by Sparklehorse.

It was Daft Punk- Discovery. That was also the same time that I became a fan of their music.
