First Album You Bought With Your Own Money

I wish i had had such good taste back then.. I particularly like Dont Ask Me Why off of Glass Houses.. also, as big a fan of Billy Joel as i consider myself to be- i didnt realize until fairly recently that he sang ‘Sometimes a Fantasy’ from that album.. i dont know why i never put it together that it was him until a couple years ago.. although it’s entirely possible i knew way back when, but then went 30 years without hearing it and forgot.

Very much remember Glass Houses but each subsequent album he put out after The Stranger were comparative disappointments just because that album was one I would play over and over and over. And then after Turnstiles, 52nd Street, and Glass Houses, I was stuck in '70s Billy Joel.

Oh, I'd also drop coin on every Pat Benatar album and I still belt them out on my playlist.
