First Album You Bought With Your Own Money
First one with my own money was Poison - Look What the Cat Dragged In. I never bought singles. I had a rule in middle school, 75% of the album has to be awesome or I don't buy any of it.
Most recent album was last week, the self titled album from Saraya. Marks album #530 from the hair metal era alone. Although I play a bit loose with that term.
Got my eyes on the new Europe album coming out in a couple of months.
