1st LP you bought and played it until your Mum wanted to kill you!!!!
 

Back in the mid 60's I think it was "Beach Boys Greatest Hits" or "Simon and Garfunkle, Sounds of Silence" Mum told me if she heard "Hello Darkness My Old Friend" one more time, the 1st day and night that I bought it, she would kill me. Didn't think she would, it was 4 in the morning and she had to get up for work soon!!!! :theband:

Plastic Letters by Blondie.

Easter 1978.

Cost £3.99.

We were up in the Lakes water skiing, for a long weekend.

It drove me potty, not being able to play it for five whole days. Though it was never off the stereo, once we were back home, and I still love it.

That was the first L.P. I bought myself. Though I'd grown up playing my parents albums, which were mainly Elvis and jazz. Again two areas of music I still adore.

I couldn't afford LP records......but I drove my dad daft with 'Love me do' by the Beatles.
So much so that he cut the plug off my Dansette record player....and I tried to put a new one on and nearly electrocuted myself.

That'll Be the Day- Buddy Holly think was his last album before he died in 59, but was around 60/61 when i collered it. think i got it from Marshalls but aint certain.:confused::)

Re: 1st LP you bought and played it until your Mum wanted to kill you!!!!
 

Don't think so, mate...Marshalls didn't open until until '68. Possibly Mary's (Blackburn Road) or the Co-op in Abbey Street?

Mine was "The Angry Young Them" by, predictably enough, Them. Played it until it was knackered...couldn't get enough of their singer, some surly looking sod by the name of Van Morrison.

Nah mate was "Twilight Time the "Platters" had left my copy on window bottom one summers day n was desparate to replace it, took her about 5/6 weeks but she got it fer me, still have it today.:)

Mrs Marshall was a good 'un. She knew she had a fair bit of competition, with Mary Mort a few doors down and she'd go the extra mile to get the record you wanted! :)

The first LP I bought with my own money was either a Bowie or a Slade ..already had a few Beatles and stuff..

Re: 1st LP you bought and played it until your Mum wanted to kill you!!!!
 

I was just wondering if anyone remembers a second hand record shop just down from the Black Horse on Abbey St that sold records in the early 70's?

Re: 1st LP you bought and played it until your Mum wanted to kill you!!!!
 

Elvis Golden Records, bought second hand from Mick Sturziker we sat together at holy family paid him back at a tanner a week.
