My first "very own" piece of vinyl was a 'BayCity Rollers' 45 that I won with a ticket stub at the Pepsi Bottle Cap Saturday Matinee in the Lincoln Theater in Port Angeles, Washington.

For those of you too young to know...

To get into the Pepsi Bottle Cap Matinee you paid your way in with 6 Pepsi Bottle Caps....When I was a kid we looked at every cap laying on the street and frequently traded them for marbles, toys, candy with other children. Pepsi-Cola Soda came in glass bottles (hehehaha) and you were paid pennies and sometimes nickels to recycle them.

The one with "Eighteen" on it.

That's a lie. The first one was Jungle Book, but Alice was next.

Really.
Edit to add, Brain Salad Surgery was the first one I tripped to. That was...an experience.

First 45 ever bought for me was Another Brick in the Wall pt. 2 by Pink Floyd. The second was "We're Not Going to Take It" by Twisted Sister. Both came from my mom. I think she was trying to raise a non-conformist, and she succeeded.

The first album was Michael Jackson's "Living off the Wall" when he was still black.
The first tape I ever bought was Poison "Look What the Cat Dragged In" I'm as ashamed of it now as I was then ("They look like girls!")
First CD was Ace Frehley's solo album from the time everyone in KISS did one. I didn't even own a CD player at the time, but I was a huge pre-makeup remover KISS fan. I had every KISS release on tape when I bought the CD, which was in 6th grade (this was during the 80's when it was not hip to be a KISS fan). Ace Frehley and Randy Rhodes are the reason I picked up the guitar.

Remember the Alamo, and God Bless Texas...

1st New Vinyl (33rpm) - AC/DC Back in black
1st New Vinyl (45 rpm) - Kansas Point of no return
1sty New Casette Tape - Alan Parsons Project Sterotomy

I'm reminded of the story of "today's high school student" who's never bought an album on vinyl, doesn't know about Beta v. VHS, doesn't know what the cold war was, etc.

Gettin' older... but it beats the alternative.
