What was the first music you bought?

What was the first music you bought? Singles and albums (and anything inbetween).

I think I was about 12. My mum took me shopping and while we were out she gave me money to buy some single records of my choice. I bought;

• Europe: The Final Countdown
• Bon Jovi: Living on a Prayer
• Debbie Harry: French Kissing in the USA
• Huey Lewis & The News: Hip to be Square
• Status Quo: You're in the Army Now

Tango In The Night was my parents record but I secretly loved it. I put it on the Midi HiFi everytime they left the house. Eventually after I'd played it 500 times I had money to buy my first album which was Rumours (cassette). I then bought Behind The Mask, followed (I think) by Fleetwood Mac (1975). I think my first non-Fleetwood Mac album was probably Road To Hell by Chris Rea.
