This is a fun exercise! What is the first album you ever spent your $ on? Not a gift. But something you purchased. LL Cool J "Bigger and Deffer".

Haha me too! I didn’t buy it though. My aunt had come to stay with us while she looked for a job the summer after she graduated from college and brought her records with her. My sisters and I thought this one was the coolest ever- the music and the album cover- so she let us keep it when she left.
I’m not sure which was first. Probably one of the following: Everley Brothers, Buddy Holly, The Brothers Four, The Lettermen, Johnny Mathis, etc.
As a kid, most of my lawn mowing money went for albums and 45’s. And fried catfish from the local fish camp. And Mad Magazines.
The Eagles Greatest Hits, Volume 1.
Played the ____ out of that record too. Due to my less than perfect care of my records as a junior high schooler, there was a skip in "Peaceful Easy Feeling" that I unconsciously listen for whenever I hear that song.
The first 45 that I ever bought was "Jive Talkin" by The Bee Gees.
Then you probably remember what this is.

For me it was "Purple People Eater." I was 7 at the time.
As for album, I think it was "Sweet Baby James."
A weem a wut
I don’t know for sure but likely Goodbye Yellow Brick Road.
A lot of y'all liked The Beatles. Also Mtn and I liked phat beats at a young age.
It may have been Thriller. And I still have it. Or possibly H2O. Still have that one, too.
