I'm not talking in terms of when the artist released it, i'm talking about when you bought it. for me it depends how picky you're going to get. it's either:
- pulp: different class (which dates bck to around the beginning of 1996, and was my joint-1st CD purchase. i used to have photocopies of the sleeve art stuck to my folder at college, bless me)
- the boo radleys: wake up! (which dates back to august 1995 - i originally bought this on cassette but have since replaced it with CD)
If you can give the date that it dates back to then all the better.
Longpigs
The Sun is Often Out (1996). The box is battered, scratched and broken, the CD is scratched to death. But it still works!
me too
longpigs ftw
Cat Rapes Dog
Trojan Whores - 1995
Now 5 from the mid 80s
It has the superior single version of The Damned's Shadow of Love, Scritti Politti's The Word Girl, an amazing cricket parody of Paul Hardcastle's Nineteen (N-N-Nineteen Not Out by The Commentators) and best of all, China Crisis' awesome Black Man Ray.
the commentators sounds amazing!
how have i never heard that song?
The Prodigy - Music For The Jilted Generation
bought in 1995.
Alot of stuff from that time actually: The Fugees, Alanis Morissette, The Chemical Brothers, Blur, Pulp, Suede, Orbital

Queens Of The Stone Age - Songs For The Deaf
Got it when I was 15 and I'm now 21, that's pretty much my whole musical lifetime because I wasn't really into music before that.
Green
by R.E.M. Probably a 1989 purchase.
Feeder, Yesterday Went Too Soon.
Actually by the Pet Shop Boys
1987. It's still got the Our Price sticker on it and the booklet has information about how to look after CDs, as they were still new-fangled technology back then.
Technically my dad bought it for me
because I was 6 at the time and my pocket money didn't stretch that far.
probably stuff like...
the bends and screamadelica that i would've bought in '96ish.
The Bends too
and Suede - Dog Man Star
Either the blue album
or the queen is dead
all my....
black sabbath LP's were bought when i was 11-14years old.
i am now 37
while my of my vinyl is now winamp'd for ease. when i really want to listen to it properly i get the records out still.
like last night. Evol - SY on vinyl, full tilt while me and little bloke hammered round GT4. nothing beats a nice slice of vinyl.
yeah I use my iPod to listen to most of my CDs now
Wu-Tang Clan
36 Chambers, which I bought when I was about 13. After that would be Lit, A Place In The Sun when I was 15 or so, I still listen to few albums from when I was 16 or 17.
Its A Shame About Ray
from about 15 years ago. Still regularly listened to and loved.
Elastica - S/T
Foo Fighters - S/T
or Siamese Dream by The Smashing Pumpkins.
The Real Thing
by Faith No More, I bought it on cassette when Epic was in the UK charts (1990?), and I listened to it yesterday on the CD I bought a few years later when the tape got chewed up by my shitty tapedeck.

the first load of albums i got...
i think the oldest is probably mark knopfler's sailing to philadelphia. still an amazing album.

I'M NOT IN MY 30'S/40'S
Kate Bush
Hounds of Love, gatefold vinyl, lovingly cared for since the year I bought it in 1985 (I think).
Monster by REM
Stole my sister's copy of this somewhere around 1996.
Michael Jackson - Bad
'89, tantrum in Woolworths. I was about 4.
hawkwinds space ritual

That was something like the third or fourth album I bought.
36 chambers slso

Permanent
By The Joy Division, or The Cure's greatest hits, can't remember which i owned 1st though, but other stuff I brought at the time i've outgrown now.
Erm... Slanted and Enchanted?
Which I got about 2 and a half years ago. And ITAOTS, which I got around the same time.
probably The Holy Bible
I can't think of a story behind it except that i bought it in a very hot summer when i was about 12/13. Then I became Richmond from The IT Crowd.
Badmotorfinger
or Superunknown, got them both on cassette at the same time in the summer of '94.
Massive Attack - Mezzanine
Lauryn Hill - The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill
Both 1998.
Not 100% perfect but 70% of the songs I never, ever tire of listening to.
I'm not a real indie!
*hangs head*
Nirvana: Nevermind (1999)
I'd possibly still play Oasis sometimes, if I had the first two albums on something that wasn't a cassette tape, so that would be (1995)
U2 October

Bandwagonesque
