I don't remember much, but I remember......


Not sure about you guys but it seems to me that things are getting a little tense here again and we need to have a little bit of fun! I was enjoying an evening of listening to my rig and then I saw it...my first CD(sorry guys too young for LP's!). I remember everything about the day I got it, the weather, the time, where it was purchase, even the price! The CD was U2's "Achtung Baby" I put the CD in(I have not listened to it in years)and was brought back to a time not too long ago when things seemed.....well, simpler. Then I got to think what a profound impact that one event had on my life, the joy of music. Does anyone else remember there first CD or LP? did it have as much of an impact on you as mine had on me?

Yes, I remember both (actually three):
First record owned: "Song of the South" soundtrack. I got it from my parents when I was four. Played it at 1:00 am when I was supposed to be sleeping on a plastic protable record player (until I got caught).
First record purchased: Led Zeppelin II, still have it, still love it.
First CD purchased: John Coltrane, eponymous from 1957. Bought it on the way to college in 1987. Glad I don't have that CD player anymore.
