I remember the 1st two well, but not much after that.

1st one was The Streak by ray Stevens
2nd was Billy Don't Be A` Hero by Bo Donaldson & The Heywoods.

Bay City Rollers "Saturday Night" was pretty early on too.

I was 11.

That should be 'Lene Lovich - Say When' or 'Gary Numan - We are Glass'... Can't remember which one's first.

Cheers, Marco

The first album I bought was called "Fantastic". It was a Various Artists album. It was 1973 and I was 8 years old.
The first 45rpm single I bought was Rasputin by Boney M from 1978. The first 12" single I bought was "Cocaine" by J.J. Cale from 1976.
