What was the first music cd/tape (or in Fodder's case, 8-Track/vinyl) you ever owned? 3. What was the first cd, tape, etc. you remember buying that doesn't suck anymore?

DesertEagle Posted September 30, 2002 I think the 1st cd I owned was Weird Al's "The Food Album." Got it a long time ago for my birthday. 0 Share this post Link to post
CyRaptor Posted September 30, 2002 1. Probably Soundgarden. 2. "Cracked Rear View" by Hootie and the Blowfish, which I actually got for my 10th birthday. 3. Same as above. I like a really wide range of music - pretty much everything except Creed. I loathe Creed. 0 Share this post Link to post
mmnpsrsoskl Posted September 30, 2002 1. Nirvana. I think. 2. silverchair - Freak. Still got it. 3. Um what the hell do you mean? They don't suck. 0 Share this post Link to post
elbryan42 Posted September 30, 2002 1. What was the very first band you can ever remember listening to and knowing who it was? Alabama. Country. Kickass. :) 2. What was the first music cd/tape (or in Fodder's case, 8-Track/vinyl) you ever owned? Music Machine on record. Still looking for it on MP3... 3. What was the first cd, tape, etc. you remember buying that doesn't suck anymore? (I.E. youy were young and stupid and bought a Will Smith CD, then as you matured, you threw it out and bought a NIN CD) Weird Al's Even Worse on record. Still have it. 0 Share this post Link to post
Insomniak Posted September 30, 2002 as for me... 1. probably one of my dad's Beatles or The Who cds, back when CD's were something very new and exciting. 2. For a long time, my religious parents wouldn't let me buy anything with the "Parental advisory" logo on it. After many long debates and negotiating, my CD collection has quintupled. The first CD i got was Dr. Dre, Chronic 2001, my only rap CD as of now (I used to have Cypress Hill's Black Sunday, but it got stolen in an English class) 3. As stated above, my selection of CD's was limited to mostly crappy dance compilations and christian rock. My first Cd was realy shitty christian rock by a gay band called DC Talk. The CD has now been sold to my mom. 0 Share this post Link to post

IMJack Posted September 30, 2002 1: Idunno which one was the first. My old man raised me on the classics: the Rolling Stones, Jethro Tull, Led Zepplin, Kansas, America... 2: I got a bunch of kiddie cassetes (the read-along-book kind) when I was really little. One of the first "real" casetes I had (and my family didn't dislike outright) was "Happy Anniversary, Charlie Brown" (some pretty good modern jazz). The first CD I bought with my own money was the Offspring: "Ixnay on the Hombre". 3: Ixnay! 0 Share this post Link to post
AndrewB Posted September 30, 2002 1. Dire Straits, as young as 3. 2. I've never purchased a music CD/casette in my life. 3. Read above, maroon. 0 Share this post Link to post
Fredrik Posted September 30, 2002 1. The Rolling Stones or Neil Young 2. I have bought some vinyl records in my younger years. The first CD I bought was 'Harvest'. 3. Why would I ever have bought immature or crappy music? 0 Share this post Link to post
Little Faith Posted September 30, 2002 A tape with Jean Michel Jarre's "Oxygene" and "Equinoxe" copied from another tape copied from the vinyl albums. I must have been 7 years old or something and they totally blew me away. I still got the tape, I think, and I'm bying the vinyl records as soon as I get a record player to actually play them (no point otherwise). 0 Share this post Link to post
Captain Red Posted September 30, 2002 the pulf fiction CD i bort in 1999. it is the only music CD I have ever paid for and one of the very few cd's i think are worth owning. 0 Share this post Link to post

I distinctly remember listening to my dad's Huey Lewis and the News tape when I 6 or 7. 2. I've owned (and still do own) several, can't really say which one I got first, though. 3. Don't really remember any. I don't buy music I don't like. :) 0 Share this post Link to post

Little Faith Posted September 30, 2002 Update (where I answer all Insomniac's question): 1 - Gasolin (greatest Danish rock act. Ever!) 2 - Jean Michel Jarre - Oxygene and Equinoxe (on one tape copied from another tape copied from the vinyls) The first albums I actually bought: Well, that must be Equinoxe on CD (it's far better on vinyl, but I didn't have a record player). 3 - Jean Michel Jarre, and he's still my favourite (though his latest two albums have been dissapointing). 0 Share this post Link to post
Grazza Posted September 30, 2002 1. Hard to say. At a guess, probably the New Seekers - one of my parents' old records. Either that or Holst's Planets Suite (the "band" in that case would have been the London Philharmonic, IIRC). 2. No Remorse by Motorhead (cassette tape). 3. No Remorse by Motorhead (the music doesn't suck, but the tape has suffered some physical damage from over-use, so perhaps that does suck). 0 Share this post Link to post
Erik Posted September 30, 2002 1. Probably ABBA. 2. Roxette, Joyride. 3. Roxette, Joyride. 0 Share this post Link to post
Spike Posted September 30, 2002 1) Easy - Pink Floyd's 'The Wall' (my Dad's favourite band at the time) 2) Radiohead's 'Pablo Honey' on casette. I didn't get into music until halfway thru school. 3)'Placebo' by Placebo. 0 Share this post Link to post

sirjuddington Posted October 6, 2002 SlayeR said:3) Metallica - Master Of Puppets Uhhh, I don't think I read the question properly. The only CD I've bought and not liked is Sugar Ray, 14:59 (ugh). Their first two albums were cool, but 14:59 was the worst load of poppy crap ever. Master Of Puppets is the first CD I got, and I still like it A LOT. 0 Share this post Link to post
AndrewB Posted October 6, 2002 I don't get why people waste their money on price-fixed CD's. That's right, the recording industries have banded together and fixed CD's at $12 apiece. What, you think they'll go broke if they charge any less? Ha, nnyahahaha. People let themselves get ripped in the sphincter and for what? 15 minutes of Sugar Ray. 0 Share this post Link to post
IMJack Posted October 6, 2002 Thank goodness for punk compilations. Twenty-plus tracks for five bucks. This one I bought was two discs, fifty tracks, five bucks flat. 0 Share this post Link to post
