Whether it was 8 Track, vinyl, cassette, CD, or from iTunes doesn't matter. What was the first album you ever purchased with your own money? Here's mine. Growing up in the suburbs of Detroit in the 70's.... Bob Seger owned this town. I still listen to this album today.

Ozzy Osboure's "Talk of the Devil" is the first album I recall buying with my own money. I bought in London in the early 80's. You Yanks might know this album as "Speak of the Devil. :)

Can’t remember which of these two. Either Kiss Rock and Roll Over or AC/DC Back in Black. And played them back a nice MGA rack system. Integrated amp, tuner, tape deck, turn table and 3 way floor standing speakers.

My first album, was an album that my mother wasn’t too thrilled for me to purchase. But she allowed it anyways after asking my friend’s father... the friend was the one who introduced it to me.
Beastie Boys Licensed to Ill.
Just like many other people, I still listen to it to this day.

The Beatles Second Album, 1964. Mono version, because it was one dollar cheaper than the Stereo version.

I bet a lot of you old folks wouldn’t even recognize the first record I ever bought;
Candy Girl by New Edition! A few after that was Thriller, Synchronicity, Bonnie Tyler.

1) Fresh Cream, Cream and 2) Projections, The Blues Project at Alexanders in Manhattan. I had just come from my first rock concert at the RKO 58th Street theater at a Murry the K Christmas show. I went to see The Blues Project and some of the other bands were Cream, The Who, The Four Tops, Simon and Garfunkel and more. Each group played three songs and there were 6 or 7 shows each day for a week or so. That was a pretty good day.

Like some of the folks above, somewhat embarrassingly, I'm pretty sure was a KISS album. Of course at the time, being a po kid, it was an 8-track, not an album.
I know two other very early ones were ELO's debut album, and Bat Out of Hell. I would have been like 14 when the latter came out, which was the perfect age for that (though I still quite like it.)
The ELO album had been out for a few years by the time I discovered them, and that changed my view of things a lot. Only later in my twilight years have I really come to understand just how immaculately constructed it was.
And of course Frampton Comes Alive came out right in that time as well, and I know I had that and listened to it a lot. Everyone was issued that album by the state I think.
