Going with "What I have physically" vs "What I have on my PC". I'd have to sift through far too much stuff otherwise.

78rpm record of Rina Ketty's "J'attendrai/Sombreros et mantilles" from 1938.

Belle and Sebastian's "Girls in Peacetime Want to Dance" that I got for free from 2015.

 

Not sure on the oldest on the Japanese side (not very old) but the newest is DIR EN GREY's Dum Spiro Spero... from 2011.

[Lestat 2167]

These are copies of what I actually own physically, I couldn't really consider what I have on iTunes legit as I didn't legally obtain any of it. And Spotify doesn't count either. I have older vinyl but they're passed on by my parents, most of it isn't music I listen to so I'll pick my personally purchased items.

 

Western.

Alice Cooper - Billion Dollar Babies (1973, vinyl, complete and intact sleeve)

KISS - Sonic Boom (2009, CD)

 

Japanese.

Gilles de Rais - BECAUSE (1993, CD) / Cats in Boots - Kicked & Klawed (1989, CD - Japanese/American band)

KAMIJO - Heart (2014, CD)

[Thedane 176]

Japanese releases.

 

Oldest: Cocobat - Cocobat Crunch (april 1992)

Newest: GAGA - 恍惚の花-コウコツノハナ- (2015/02/25) <-- I'm not entirely sure that's my newest one.. it's the newest one in my hand, but there's some newer stuff on the way.

 

I only support japanese bands, so there's nothing else to add.

[Des 289]

Rocketeer gets +10 cool points for Alice Cooper.
Thedane gets +10 weeaboo points.
