After I got the Greatest Hits Collection, I started at the beginning and got Queen, then Queen II, etc.
Greatest Hits 1 on vynil, 1987, I was 9. My cousin had 2 copies of it for xmas 1986, I brought it off him for £5, I was 9. From then on I was hooked.
I already had gotten GH and Classic Queen as a gift, and ANATO was my first Queen album, cause I'd heard Death on Two Legs, and really liked it. Also, they didn't have a huge selection of Queen cds in Music World that day.
I'd like to start collecting Rogers and Brians' solo efforts but there's rather a small chance of getting them over in Australia..bastards.
My parents bought me an audio cassette with Gratest Hits 1 when I was little. I used to listen to it then, but - unfortunately, I forgot about it until the seventh grade (around 1998). Since then I became Queen-crazy. After I re-listened to GH1, I rushed to the music store to buy any Queen album I could find. The first one was Made In Heaven, then Innuendo, and so on...Since then, I save money especially for this purpose.
I started with GH2 ('cause I used to steal my sisters cd's) :D
Mine was ANATO.
Sheer Heart Attack
My first Queen-record: "The Works". I bought it 1984 in an old-fashioned record-shop in my hometown and it cost me approx. 13 Euro. That´s been quite a lot for a vinyl, i guess. Then came "A Night at the Opera" - and it´s been quite a shock for me. I was wondering if I bought the wrong record. Never heard any track of it before just bought it cause it was quite cheap and the name Queen was on the front cover. It took one week - and it became my favourite Queen-album till today.
When they began to release the first CDs I bought twelve at one strike! My parents have been very upset wasting my money for "such a shit"!

Let me see, well after I fell in love with my mom's Greatest Hits, I got Classic Queen. But I don't know what the first real album I got would be because I bought the Crown Jewels and got 8 at once.
The first studio album I bought was a cassette of News Of The World, because I had first bought a cassette of Live Killers (which I had listened to probably a hundred times by this point), and I wanted to hear the studio versions of Sheer Heart Attack, Spread Your Wings, and Get Down Make Love.
The first album I actually heard was my dad's copy of ANATO on vinyl when I was nine or ten... I wasn't really a fan yet. I just remember hearing the first couple minutes of Death On Two Legs, and I thought it was so incredibly weird! Definitely like nothing I had ever heard before.

OK mi first Queen album was GH and Wembley (1990 - 1992) , but my really first CD was Innuendo when i heard that song and saw the video I said WOW!, since this day I'm a Queen & Freddie fan
My first album was The Game or ANATO, I can´t remember wich one. I think that ANATO is the best album.
Sheer Heart Attack, 1974 - after hearing it at a friends house. Listened to Brighton Rock and knew I had to go get the album - 30 years ago.... sure goes quickly!
