Albums I Have Owned

A bit of self indulgence.

While hunting through a box of old paperwork in the loft, I came across an old school excercise book with a list of records I owned at the time (late 70's?).
I haven't found the one that lists the first 700 singles bought, but this one had a list of albums I owned.
I blame my older sister for giving me most of the early ones as they're not the sort of thing someone who pretends to have always listened to good music would admit to owning :)

Anyway here's the list, don't think it's completely in order.
As far as I remember the first 15 were given to me as something to play on my first record player (a £15 Rigonda from Woolies), the next 20 or so were bought from my auntie's record shop out of the bargain box as I was only earning about 50p a week from my paper round :).
After that I'll take all the blame as they were bought with hard earned cash.
