I did have records before this, but it is the first one I remember actually buying. From Volume Records, loved that place on Saturday afternoons.

Jeepster - T.Rex, from a local newsagent that used sell ex-jukebox records for about 6(old)pence, yes a tanner..maybe less, but had the centre cut out so you had to have the proper thing to play it on a normal record player..what are they called? Centres? Either tri spoked or a curvy shape...

Hefty Hideaway

I don’t know what the first ones would have been. My local record shop sold 7” singles for 10p. I used to buy all the ones with nice covers!

The first one I can put a name to is ‘Under The Sea’ by Sebastien T. Crab on cassette. I was 7. Forgive me but I still maintain it’s a great song!
