Re: First Album you ever bought?

First album I actually bought was Teaser and the Firecat by Cat Stevens.

First album I can remember actually playing on my Dansette was Summer Holiday (Cliff Richard) in 1963!

Anyone seen the "Road Wars" involving Humberside Police yet over here?

I know they were filming it in 2007 just before I moved here, but I haven't seen it scheduled here yet, only lots of re-runs of the Thames Valley Force.
