My First album was KISS - Destroyer in 1976 I was 10

yes I'm 42

Then someone gave me a cassette tape with
Rush - 2112 and Rush - Caress of Steel on it and have been a Rush fan ever since

[Cosma]

Fly by Night was my 1st Rush album....and second purchase after Heart

[Quinarvy]

First two albums (both from my brother)

The Battle for Everything by Five for Fighting
American Idiot by Green Day

Both opened up rock to me and gave me something to listen to that wasn't pop or rap (rap was due to friends playing it all the time...)

[WingsOfSteel]

Sounds of Summer by The Beach Boys. Pretty good for a compilation album.

The first album that I purchased was "A Little Bit of Mambo" by Lou Bega in 1999. If you don't remember he did this song:

I think my parents bought me an N*SYNC album before that.

Ahh that music brings me fond memories.

I was 5 and bought Back in Black when it came out. I honestly don't know why, it certainly didn't shape my life and I would buy plenty of bad music I saw on Solid Gold not long after. I remember one of my favorite albums around this time being a K-Tel comp called High Voltage - I actually owned it on LP, Casette and 8-track, though my LP was left near a window by my babysitter and I threw a huge fit.

Now don't laugh but the first I owned was a gift when I turned 13, it was KISS Double Platinum.....ON 8 TRACK

First one I ever bought was KISS Alive II under the advise of a cousin

However my first album that I decided to by on my own was Heart Dreamboat Annie and Little Queen.

I can't remember if mine was Journey "Escape" or Van Halen "Diver Down"...On 8 track. (I'm not laughing). lol

I'm looking at that album right now. It's called "High Energy". There are 2 good ones on there. "Double Vision" by Foreigner and "Renegade" by Styx. The rest on there are mostly R&B/Disco. Haven't pulled that off the shelf for years...lol.

My first CD was Billy Idol - Whiplash Smile
