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.  rofl

 

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. thumbs-upthumbs-upthumbs-up

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.

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.  awesome

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!
