Question What vinyl record did you first buy?

There may have been a thread like this before?

Anyway was watching the program "The Joy of the Single" on BBC4 few weeks ago and it was about the good times of music when it came on vinyl. Those days have gone.

So I am wondering what was the first single (on vinyl) you ever bought - this probably excluses anyone under 16

In that case you can include the first download you bought?

Mine was Shaft by Issac Hayes

Songs for Swinging Lovers - Frank Sinatra

'swinging' didn't mean the same then as it does now
It was the age of 'Big Band Swing' music

Diana, Paul Anka,1957. I played it until the steel needle(yes, steel!) took the grooves out(quite a while before I could afford 'Little Darling').
Never knew he was Canadian.

First vinyl bought for me by parents.... From what I remember was either....

Smiley Culture - Police Officer or Foreigner - I want to know what love is. How old would I have been ?

First one I bought myself. With pocket money... I have no idea. It could be Iron Maiden - Seventh son of a seventh son or Megadeth - So far So good So what.
