Oh I loved Blue Mink!

Fantastic thread. I'm going through 11 pages thinking "remember buying that". Just had sad thoughts though. In 20/30 years time there may be a DYR forum for noughties children called "What was your first song downloaded?". As they'll have nothing tangible to refer to, I doubt it'll get off the first page, either that or it'll be 11 pages of "can't remember".

Mine?
The first single... IRON MAIDEN's BRING YOUR DAUGHTER TO THE SLAUGHTER (Different to the one on NOES5: The Dream Child)
The ALBUM.... IRON MAIDEN:THE NUMBER OF THE BEAST
After The Angel and The Gambler they began to go downhill but now my fave band're Bal-sagoth (WWW.BAL-SAGOTH.COM) whose brand of metal's more approriate to some of my works of fiction.

Dunno if it's been done (as the music section here is too extensive to look thru),

, but what was your first tape/record/CD etc you bought. My first one (tape) was one by the Pet Shop Boys (forgot the name tho' ... then a Wet Wet Wet one) ... then Brittania and that other music ordering company came along!!

Anyone remember the Magpie catalouge too? (they were quite posher than Brittania and ahd some real brill ounusual ones in their range!
