Richard Buckner, What Was the First Album You Ever Bought?

“The first single that I bought was ‘Uncle Albert’/‘Admiral Halsey.’

But the first album that I bought was the Spinners’ ‘Pick of the Litter.’ It was on 8-track, and if I remember correctly, it had a hot pink plastic shell. And it had that song ‘All That Glitters Ain’t Gold’ on it. That was my favorite song when I was, oh, however old I was when I bought that.

It was the first album that I ever owned.”

In support of his latest album, “Our Blood,” singer-songwriter Richard Buckner steps into the spotlight at MASS MoCA’s Hunter Center in North Adams at 8pm on Saturday (March 10), opening the show for Justin Townes Earle. Tix are $22 in advance; $26 at the door.
