So yesterday my youngest daughter turned 17 and I got her a turntable for vinyl albums. She’s collected a few albums over the years just for the album covers.
So it tugged at my heart when the first album she chose to play was Dark Side of the Moon. Then she went into my stack that’s been sitting in my media room gathering dust and pulled out my original Van Halen 1 that I bought when it originally came out and hasn’t seen daylight in over 30 years. Brought back memories and tears. We just sat around and listened like we teenagers did back in the 70 and 80’s, and going over and over the album jacket.

So my question to you knuckleheads is “What would be your first album choice to play?”

Hard to beat "Van Halen I".....that would have been right there for me. I might have gone with Aerosmith, "Toys in the Attic".....or Electric Light Orchestra, "A New World Record".....man we had good music.....

The records I actually listened to were a combo of what my sisters had and my friend’s older brother:
Meatloaf: Bat out of Hell
Alice Cooper: From the inside
