Not old enough for the album thing...but it was ACDC Live.

Re: WHAT WAS THE VERY FIRST ALBUM YOU BOUGHT OR RECEIVED

The first album I bought was the Beatles 65. I guess that makes me an oldie as well.

Dan Fogelberg's Nether lands...I still like to listen to each and every song. It was a sad day for the music world when he passed away.

R.E.M.'s "Reckoning". 'Harborcoat' is still one of my top 5 songs ever.

I had two eightracks my brother-in-law gave me since he had upgraded to cassette.  Imagine cassettes as an upgrade.
Boston, Boston, and Black Sabbath...not sure which album, the label was all scratched off.

Re: WHAT WAS THE VERY FIRST ALBUM YOU BOUGHT OR RECEIVED

My sister dubbed "No Fences" by Garth Brooks for me, which is probably still my favorite country album to this day. I went out and bought Garth Brooks self-titled album shortly after.

My favorite album of all time though is probably AC/DC "Live"...unfortunately someone borrowed it and I haven't seen it since sad

Most recent purchase was "Riot!" by Paramore...it's not a bad album at all...I'm pleasantly surprised.

What do you all think of the ipod revolution? People will just go out and buy the one or two songs that they hear on the radio and skip the rest of the album. I've found that my favorite song on an album is usually one that didn't get played on the radio. Is this bad for music as people are only listening to the songs that the record labels think have "commercial value"?
