What was the first album (CD, tape, 8-track, etc) you ever bought? Not the first given to you, stolen, or that you copied from a friend. What was the first music you actually spent money on? What format?

Mine:

(tape)
 
^ oh god. Yawn.

Anyway, first album I ever bought was Iron Maiden's Somewhere In Time, on cassette, back in 86. I still have the cassette!

After that I bought Live After Death (double cassette), and then Maiden Japan (vinyl), and still have them both too :)
 
hell if i know. it was definitely something very MTV'd up for sure though.

as for the first purchase that actually mattered, twas Megadeth's Cryptic Writings. that sort've kicked off the whole metalhead phase. well, that and buying a guitar
 
Antonio Vivaldi - The Four Seasons op.8
Frans Bruggen/Orchestra of the 18th Century

on tape in 1993
