The Pogues' If I Should Fall From Grace With God was my first.

The "new" Red Hot Chili Peppers album Mother's Milk after Hillel Slovak's death was the second. Think of this as the skate-funk-rock version of Back in Black.

Other early purchases were:
Faith No More - The Real Thing
Faith No More - Introduce Yourself
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Freaky Styley

and some of the bigger duds in my collection:
Extreme - Pornograffiti (finally gave this one away)
Dead Milkmen - Bucky Fellini
Alice Cooper - Trash
