What was the first music you bought?

[SnorkMaiden]

The very first album I was so proud to buy was 'Ace of Base' on tape!  (Yes, I'm that old!)

Really? Me too!! I loved that tape, listened to it all the time.

The first CD I bought was the German soundtrack of "The Lion King" (the movie - this was many years before the musical).

So many Guns n Roses girls!!! Do you still like them?

They're my favourite band ever (listening to them as I write this) and I'm sure I've mentioned the fact that I'm writing a story in some of my posts on here, well that story's about them (and me and some other stuff...). In fact, the folder I've got it in acts as a good background for pony photos! It's outgrowing any space I have to keep it in...
I'm not going to post a picture of said folder because from past experience people freak out at it (!!!)

Oh and probably my username on here answers your question as well.
Sorry for going a bit off topic.

Me, with my own money?

Hanson.  On Cassette.

I remember Ace of Base being one of my favourite bands as a kid though I was told I was enamored with New kids ont he Block.

Ace of Base was popular here when I was in 7th or 8th grade.

The first CD I owned (I don't think I bought it, my parents had to have, this was like in the mid 90s, when I wasn't even 10 yet) was No Doubt's Tragic Kingdom. Don't Speak was like my favorite song back then.

I don't know if I've actually bought a CD with my own money. I remember my brother got me a Guess Who CD when I was pretty young, and my parents got me Beatles CDs. I think the first one i picked out myself was the Black Parade.

I owned that tape, too. 

Though I *think* my first purchase may have been the Batman Forever soundtrack.

I've been a Jim Steinman fan since I was 12 and stealing my parents' Meat Loaf & Friends CD
The first CD I ever bought with my own money was Bat out of Hell. I hadn't even discovered Amazon then, I had to order it from WH Smith's. The first record I ever bought was Meat Loaf's Bad Attitude (found in a second hand record shop, and bought about 6 months before I actually got a record player!).

Such a great album! "Don't Speak" is still one of my favorite songs.

[Majesty]

It was either a cassette tape of The Spice Girls first album or a cassette tape of LeAnn Rimes' first album I can't remember.

[ladybastilla]

Did anyone else use one of those 12 cds for 1 cent cd clubs? My aunt and I did that two or three times each.

[pinkkittywinks]

I can't remember

It might have been something by either the Pet Shop Boys, Enya, Kylie or Bananarama. I recall having some vinyl records and cassettes.

Love pkw xxx

First cassette tape I bought myself was - Julian Lennon: The Secret Value of Daydreaming I think I was about 9 or ten at the time and I wore the tape out and later got the CD at a used cd store. The first CD I bought was Chicago's Greatest Hits I believe but I might be wrong on that, I got a cd player for my birthday and a lot of cds joined my collection in the week or so that followed thanks to allowance and birthday money. xD

OMG I got so much music from the Columbia House one! I kinda miss those days now that I think about it.

Ace of Base- The Sign on cassette for me too! I got it at Turn It Up! Records, in the basement of Thornes Market in Northampton MA in 1993. Played that tape 'til it broke, probably drove my parents insane
