Nirvana - Nevermind
The place has been out of business for a long time...probably because it looked like it ran a backdoor drugs service
I still listen to it regularly. It's the album that got me interested in playing music.

In 1980 or 1981 I bought Cheap Trick's "At Budokan" on vinyl from my friend Fred at school. That's the first non-kids album I remember getting.
In 1983 I bought Quiet Riot's "Metal Health" & Krokus's "Headhunter" cassettes at the same time. I think it was at JR's Music at the mall.
I got a CD player in 1987 and the first CD I bought was Van Halen's s/t 1st release from Mainstream Records.
I listen to Cheap Trick all the time. There's only a couple QR songs I listen to, I don't listen to Krokus at all, and if I listen to Van Halen I usually play II, Fair Warning, Women & Children or Diver Down.

Tried to buy this.
When we got to the counter at Blockbuster Music (remember those?) the man explained the new stickers telling my mom she shouldn't buy it for me.
Instead I got this
I still listen to Dookie, do not listen to Coolio. Maybe this shifted my whole life

Not the first album but a 45 single. Tommy Roe
I won some kind of on-air contest and got to pick out any record in the store. Clegg's Music in Kosciusko, MS. I was 10 years old.
Clegg's was next to the Strand Theater. We went over and checked out what was new when we would sneak out of the movie. They also sold black lights, black light posters, incense and all of the trappings of the day too. Bought my first eight track player and speakers there years later before I had a car. Had it hooked up to a battery charger in my bedroom.
Led Zeppelin II was the first album I bought. At the same store.
My 1st eight track was ZZ top Tres Hombres.I blew out those old Craig speakers listening to Master of Sparks. Thought the devil was there to get me.
Moved up to cassettes with the Pioneer system in college. Never bought cassettes because I was big into buying the albums and recording them the first time I played them. Recorded several more than once when new technology in the cassettes came out. I think the first album I dubbed was my favorite album of all time, Led Zepplin Houses of the Holy.
Thanks for spurring the memories. Have Houses of the Holy on CD. Think I'll listen to it.

Stand by Sly and the Family Stone. I bought it at Value Giant in Livermore, CA in August 1969. The business is long gone, and so is the album. I left it, and many others, in care of my brother when I was stationed in Korea. None survived in playable condition.

Got that album for my 15th birthday in 1970-something.

My brothers and I pooled our money and went to a K-mart in Independence, Mo. in 1969. And then played it until the needle was worn out. In retrospect my parents have very thick skin.
No, I don't still play it and have no ability to play records anymore.
I did better with the first album I bought for myself:
1972 in a mall in the south side of Pittsburgh. It is still in a box in the basement along with a bunch of other albums that haven't been played in 15 years.
