My first ever LP was Violator by Depeche Mode. I saved all my earnings from my holiday job. I was a cashier at a big retail fashion chainstore. I was such a happy bunny when I walked out the record store.
Kids nowadays don’t know what’s it feels like to browse through LP’s and Cassettes looking at the covers etc. So many blissful memories.

After WW2 the music scene changed dramastically, from the big band era to the start of “proper” rock and roll music… Check out rock and rooll in the 1950 to 1960s. by 1970 true rock and roll was being watered down by the new groups being formed, pure rock and roll died

@Cosmos6 My 1st LP was from Buddy Holly and it was his influence with his Rave On that gave me the nudge to play and sing myself. I was also heavily into rock-n-roll jiving with a string of lumpy jumpers eager to dance with this 6’ 6" giant.
I ended up married to my lead singer after she proposed on stage

About 1960, I think, my big brother had an EP with Rave On, Peggy Sue and I think two others.

those who never lived in that era have no idea of the impact it had on the music scene. Some radio disc jockies refused to play it and parts of the USA banned it. no matter the artist it was always the beat that won through every time
buddy holly some of his hits n cluding “not fade awsay” with the BO D beat
