The first one I bought was by The Carpenters, but I don't remember its name. And, further giving away my advanced age, my first 8-track was a Beatles compilation.

This thread is making me feel very,very old. Your DAD'S Tom Lehrer records? Migawd! I'm out of here.

I still love that music -- and I managed to corrupt my eldest son with it also. Of course it ties in with his fixation on WWII history too.
