Re: the first album you really loved in your life

When I was about eleven years of age I went into my local Library in Leicester and found that they were selling a slightly battered copy of Kraftwerk's Autobahn LP on the Vertigo label. I thought it looked interesting so I paid 50p and rushed home to listen to my first album.

I remember putting the vinyl on my Dad's Garrard deck and listening through his Sennheiser headphones. I was transfixed and this started a 30 odd year addiction to music.

Have to say the sound on that old 1974 vinyl was way better than the copy of Autobahn I bought on CD (around 1984). I recently listened to a copy of the Kraftwerk Remasters (as part of the The Catalogue release). Although the Remastered Autobahn is way better than the early 80's CD I'm still convinced it's not as good as that old 50p vinyl purchase!!
