Look out--I'm really showing my age here!
Gene Simmons, KISS: Gene Simmons (1978)
Black Sabbath, Paranoid (1970)
KISS, Alive! (1975)
Deep Purple, Deep Purple In Rock (1970)
Alice Cooper, From The Inside (1978)
Led Zeppelin, Jethro Tull, Pink Floyd, and Grand Funk Railroad came shortly after.
I was around 10 or 11 when I came to own these--all of them on 8-track, with the exception of the Deep Purple album, which I had on cassette. I don't think anyone so far has 'out-heavied' my list. The first LPs I owned were KISS's Dynasty (1979) and The Alan Parsons Project's The Turn of a Friendly Card (1980). The first punk thing I owned was The Ramones' Subterranean Jungle, just after it came out in '83, when I was on my way to 9th grade.
