My fist classical album was Handel's 'Messiah' A three volume set done with a chamber orchestra which was an early 'authentic' performance, I suppose.

My first rock was Rod Stewart and the Faces 'Every Picture Tells a Story'

First folk was Fairport Convention's 'Angel Delight'

I'd have been about the same age as you were and had a 'Saturday job' which gave me the money.

And I still have all three in playable condition! :o)
