      Single was Kings of the wild frontier- Adam and the ants 1980
      Album again Kings of the wild frontier 1980.

      Had heard there was a band going by the name of Adam and the ants and it stuck in my mind as a stupid name for a band. Then on the muti coloured swap shop i saw the video to Ant music and was mesmerised by his look and the catchiness of the tune. Didn't have a clue what it was called though.
      Took my hard earned 75p pocket money off to the record shop where they had all the top 40 singles displayed in a perspex frame numbered 1-40.
      Being not so tall in those days I started my search at number 40. Got up to about 33 and found Kings of the wild frontier. Bought it thinking i'd hear Antmusic when i got home. The opening drum sequence blew my mind and i was hooked forever............... it took me 10 years of sale bins searching before i got Antmusic.

        Single: MC Sar & The Real McCoy - Run Away
        Album: Culture Beat - Whatever the heck the Culture Beat album was called

        Needless to say, I revise history to claim that I never purchased singles and my first album was 'Parklife' by Blur (hey, it almost was).

              I feel sorry for the current generation. I can't see a "What was the first track you downloaded" thread having much mileage.

                  Right, first things first first , (sorry to hijack this thread) secondly,

                  Just goes to show you, I was talking with a (older) colleague at work the other day, and I mentioned that "nowadays", first thing I do with a C.D. is rip it to the computer, to put onto my I pod, never to be played again, remember the days when you used to get a Vinyl Single, and you used to play it to death.... over and over, again and again, endlessly, happy memories.........
