May be showing my age here by using the term single! But for me it was Lay your love on me by Racey.
So wish it was something cooler!

The first one I received was Rolf Harris "Two Little Boys", first one I bought was by David Essex (I'm old).

Pipes of Peace by Paul McCartney

I remember loving the video.

I think I was about 8 or 9.

Mine were Ant Music (Adam and the Ants) and A Town Called Malice (The Jam).
Both bought from the local market for about £1 when I was around 10. I still have them.

I actually bought two at the same time...

Michael Jackson (I cant remember the exact song I think it was One Day In Your Life) and Odyssey - Back To My Roots

My Sweet Lord - George Harrison

Abba - Fernando

Who else recorded songs by putting their tape recorder by the TV when Top of the Pops was on, back in the early 70's?

whoopstheregoesmymerkin · 05/05/2010 13:59

Golden Brown - Stranglers
had no idea what it was about!

BTM I didn't hold my tape recorder to the TV but did record songs on TOPS on Radio 1 on a Sunday night.

My first single was Ant Music by Adam and the Ants.

Spirit in the Sky by Dr and the Medics

BigTillyMint · 05/05/2010 14:25

INSS, yes, I did that too, but I did the TV thing when I got my first tape-recorder when I was 7. It was red!

heymammy · 05/05/2010 14:30

Seven Tears by The Goombay Dance Band. I was about 7 I think. Before that I particularly remember enjoying my dad's Boney M and Abba records

RattusNorvegicus · 05/05/2010 20:43

Metal Guru by T-rex. Although I also had two little boys by Rolf Harris bought for me.Didn't record off tv but I had the crappy Top of the pops albums, with unknown artists singing pop hits badly. And now there's Glee. What goes around comes around I suppose!

Go Buddy Go by the Stranglers

Led Zep 2 was the first album I bought
(it was seem as old fashioned because everyone was into the Jam, the Clash and so on so there were a few geeky kids at high school that were into rock.
