My First Exotic

People who see my Black Plastic Horde often ask "What was the first record you got that started you collecting all this junk?"
Well, first off I would correct their limited opinion on what is Quality that surrounds them, and then point to this particular platter that was purchased during a hiatus to the Mountains of Blue (Springwood) during the heady years of 1984>5.
It was really an open slather of opshop and secondhand store bonanza in those past times, and many records, books, toys and 'junk' gathered from those days hold special memory to me. To find many of those objects and similar d'jour can be near impossible today unless one is willing to pay high bloodmoney across a counter.
We all live in hope....

How could I not be tempted...
