Title: What was the first single you ever bought?
Post by: sandgrounder on June 06, 2013, 19:51:58 PM
If it's a good one I'll play it on my Oldies show on www.mightyfm.co.uk (http://www.mightyfm.co.uk) on Saturday morning  :) Show runs from 10am until 2pm!

First one I ever bought was "Couldn't get it right" by The Climax Blues Band way back in 1976 :o

Oh Russ - this is so embarrassing - I was 13 in 1965 - I started pestering my Mum to let me buy Tired of Waiting - The Kinks - but she wouldn't give in - until 2 weeks later and when I went into the shop the No 1 was - It's Not Unusual - Tom Jones - so I bought that because I wanted to have my own Number 1 record - oh nooooooooo

Technically the first single I ever bought was Mull of Kintyre for my mum for Christmas. I doubt that will make your playlist Russ but if it does and you don't mention in any way why, I'll stick a 20TL in the local charity pot of your choosing  :D
