Your first album

Nik Kershaw - Human Racing. First artist I really liked, and not just some hand me down act or album from an older brother or sister.

chaosmachine sez: if you need album art, use this.

I was 8 years old.

Yeah I'm cool

I remember one of my classmates had a postcard with ginger doing some sort of kick in the air while on stage and you could see her panties and if you looked really closely you could see a small tuft of red hair protruding from said panties.

It was amazing.

My first album was Iron Maiden's 'No prayer for the dying', technically it was a Tour of Duty compilation but I exchanged it within a few days.

OR

I can't remember.

edit: or possibly this -

Michael Jackson's Thriller, picture disk version. Yeah I'm old.
