What Was The First Album You Bought With Your Own Money?

Written and scheduled on November 28, 2011

If you have followed this blog for any length of time you know that I love music and you also know that I’ve always loved interacting with my readers. So for a little interactive interaction, I have a question for you. What was the very first album that you purchased got yourself with your very own money? In addition, was it vinyl, CD or digital download. Also what song from that album were you buying the album for?

The very first time I used my money to buy an album was using birthday money I think. I believe I bought more than one album at the time. If I am not mistaken I think it was my tenth birthday. I went to the store to get Janet Jackson’s Rhythm Nation in CD form and I got the album because of Miss U Much. I figured if I was going to marry this woman, I should have every one of her albums and Control was already in my collection. I had lofty goals for a ten year old.

I think you will find this month’s guest post well worth the wait. This month there are a number of firsts. The guest blogger this month has graciously written her post in two languages; English and German.  My guest is also the youngest blogger to guest post. Mai Mergili is her name and she is the owner of Pencil Pillow. At the time I asked Mai to guest for me she hosted her blog on WordPress but has since moved to Blogger. Coincidentally being on Blogspot makes her my first guest on a blogging platform other than WordPress. It is indeed a month of firsts.

For Whitney; The Voice

My wife is a huge fan of Whitney Houston and her death hit her hard. I am creating this post for her so don’t think I am back to posting regularly, because I am not. I saw this tribute for Whitney from The Dubai Foundation and thought this might be a good way to honor someone who gave happiness to billions yet was so very unhappy herself (my opinion). If you like beautiful things such as water fountains and you are not sick and tired of hearing I Will Always Love You; I think you might enjoy this.
I know April will.
