For me it was "Winelight" by Gover Washington Junior, and followed that with Spectrum "Takin it to the Top", They got me into the whole jazz funk disco experience

It was either "She Blinded Me With Science" by Thomas Dolby or "Change" by Tears For Fears. Not sure which came first.

I'm not sure, but I think the first one I bought was Skip Mahoney & the Casuals - Running Away From Love on Abet Records.

I believe that the first 12" I had was Double Exposure - Ten Percent, but that was given to me.

Both were 1976.

Madonna - Like A Virgin :oops: (I still prefer that mix too.)
and Prince - Purple Rain (purple vinyl, album version), bought at the same time. My plan was to buy Irene Cara - Flashdance... What A Feeling but they didn't have it anymore and I never saw it again. Took me 10 years to finally hear it. I'm very patient. 8)

Born in '63, I didn't have that much pocketmoney as a young kid so I mainly bought 7"s in the early seventies. But it all started in 1978 when I bought Supermax "Love Machine" and the second one was "Hot Shot" by Karen Young. Still love those beauties!

I think the first 12" I bought was Doctor's Orders by Carol Douglas about 1975-6-7? It's been so long I can't remember exactly.

T-Connection's 'Do What You Wanna Do' on TK. I was 12 & found it very exciting with those breaks & synth solos. :D
