The first album I bought with my own money was 'A Hard Day's Night.'
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Hard Day's Night was one of those great films that will never happen again to anyone in their lifetime. UA were in profit before we'd even finished shooting - The advance sales on the album - the film was out before the album was out was more than it cost UA to make the film.
A band's first album's usually not great. When you made the first album, you had a day job and you were still trying to be serious about it.
My first album was me finding myself and my voice, finding how I sing. I was rolling with the punches because everything was new to me.
The first album that I bought was the Nirvana 'MTV Unplugged in New York' album.
My first album done what it had to do. It introduced me.
With Dollars And Cents on the album, we had it as a band jam and I sometimes spend evenings playing with records over the top of things we were working on to see what works.
The first bit of vinyl I bought was Michael Jackson's 'Bad.'
The first time I really listened to an album and thought, 'This album is mine,' was Kanye's 'Late Registration.'
I don't even remember the last time I bought an album, honestly.
The first purchase I made with my own money was a single by The Kinks, "All Day and All of the Night" and still one of my all time favorites.
