Mine was aged 11, on a trip to London(1977)  - Something Better Change by The Stranglers. And how music did change - the flares were immediately cut to drainpipes and long hair to spiky. I did have Bohemian Rhapsody(1975) but I think my mum bought that for me.  - 

 

 

Beatles, 'I want to Hold Your Hand' , 1963 or 4 I guess. 

Dire Straights "Sultans of Swing". '79 , i think

If it's Wombling In The Rain, nothing to be ashamed of. Mike Batt wrote some great songs. 

Can't remember first single, but album always remember whit original cover. Guns N' Roses Appetite for Destruction buy from Sweden 1987. Still have it.

That reminds me; do you remember Max Bygraves's "I'm a Blue Tooth Brush you're a Pink Tooth Brush", same era. I must have been around 5 years old.

Get it On by T.Rex who had a very dodgy keyboard player as a session musician.....watch and yes it is him !

Must have been 1971 ish

mine too, it was a Christmas prezzie from my folks. I never knew there was a free UFO - reckon folks must ve half inched it.

I loved that album though - "Big Wheels" and "Wild West Hero" - outstanding
