Your First Vinyl

Tell me about your first album or 45!!

I was five and loved a goofy little tune that was on both the pop and country charts called "Tennessee Bird Walk." Got it for my birthday with the money Granny gave me.

Got my first stereo and album, The Carpenters "A Song for You" for Christmas.

I wanted records for my birthday. Granny sent ten bucks. COOL! I could buy the pop top ten! Mom insisted little 45s weren't that expensive! I got home from school to a big stack of 45s and she proudly said she saw a display at Walgreens, and $10 bought 1 of each they had.

I had to explain The Clunker Bin.

Worst birthday present EVER.
