New to the forum. I suppose it has been done to death but I wanna know when you got your first album and first stones album.
K-tell's Starflight was first album, 1979
First Stones album was Emotional Rescue in 1980, was ten years old. I remember wanting it for She so Cold but I also had a Styx album in hand, I seem to remember it was Paradise Theater. Technically it was a cassette format. And had to wait to ride the 25 miles back home with ma & pa, I think people with the iTunes don't understand the anticipation of having to wait a bit to hear what you bought. Not the 10 second download instant music era of today. Many people don't talk about the Emotional Rescue album but I was hooked on the Stones after that. I had no clue of the back catalogue and awesome singles, the next few years I was in heaven. Hot Rocks was the second tape I owned and was amazed but I was intrigued to listen to some of the not hits like Before they make me Run or Fingerprint File. I got to the point where I enjoyed those songs. Jigsaw Puzzle and Little T & A or Shine a Light or if you really want to be my Friend.

I'll play along...

First Album: Elton John's Greatest Hits Vol 2 (purchased in 1978- I was 5)

My first album AND first Stones album was Voodoo Lounge.

Not my favourite DB track at all! But I was inspired by the BowieStone username and chose RR as it was a Stoneslike riff, if that makes any sense.

first album - Jim Croce (i think the title was Life And Times)
first stones - Some Girls
