What was your first music that you paid for?


In fifth grade I received a stereo for Christmas. What a mistake my parents made, I never stopped the hobby. My firat album was Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass with :What Now My Love" my first 45 was "Guitarzan by Ray Stevens and the first 8-track was Frijid Pink.

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother and the Holding Company for $2.99 at Kings (no longer there) in Brighton, MA in 1969.
I might be wrong,but I think the Archies,Sugar Sugar,when I was about 9 years old
I bought a lot of 45,s that I heard on my 5 dollar transister radio which I carried with me everywhere,,AM stations only,
Funny Ray:

A more than decent local musician left my home town of Des Moines to play with the "Archies" cartoon/45 stuff. No way I'll ever remember his name though after all these years.
