I'm going to guess those two came out in about '87…
Sadly my first purchase was on CD: The Wonder Stuff – Welcome to the Cheap Seats EP

I'm afraid to say this was my first record ever bought by myself at the
ripe old age of 3. And I have to tell you I still have it today and it
is quite scary in parts too ha ha. I still listen to it every now and
then, theres some catchy little tunes on it.
In my late teens though my first proper 12" single I bought was Coccoon (the hitman and her theme tune) I still love this as well and have it on my mobile too. I love my vinyl's.

Never bought a single.
Actually no, I bought an old 12" single of the safety dance on eBay a couple of years ago. That counts.

My first ever 7" single purchase, from WHSmiths, Birmingham, 1977. I doubt anyone will remember it though.

Awww Adam Ant was my first crush I thought he was so sexy with his white stripe across his nose…Lol. Kinda sums up how weird I am that I suppose. And if there was any doubt of that fact this is my all time favourite 12" in my collection (well apart from my sex god who's more of a 14" ha ha…but enough of that! ) Enjoy this…..!!
Yeah I know its really gay orientated but I didn't care then it was teasy stuff for a young girl. Roflmao.

For me it was Def Leppards Pour Some Sugar on Me. It cost me £1.45 if I remember rightly. I am unashamed too, I still love it!
