Subject: First 80's Album you bought
Written By: gunsnroses on 07/26/20 at 1:51 pm
The first album I ever bought was when I was five, it was The Go Go's Beauty and The Beat. I loved "We Got The Beat" and "Our Lips Are Sealed." They were great. Such upbeat empowering music. It annihilates the pop of today.

It was a Howard Jones cassette - maybe 1983. Got it for "New Song".
Second album was Culture Club - maybe 1984.
Third was The Jets debut in 1985.

The first 80s album I bought was The Changeling by Toyah. This came out in 1982.
I own Crocodiles by Echo and the Bunnymen, which came out in 1980, but I didn’t buy it until probably out 1984.

First album I got was Olivia Newton John's Greatest Hits Vol. 2.
They had an ad for it on TV and I thought she was an angel, I wanted to be just like her when I grew up. Got my dad to buy me the album when I found it at K-Mart in 1983. I memorized all the songs...
This was before I discovered MTV when I was 7-8 yrs old...
