Do you tend to associate albums with where you were listening to it for the first time? I was listening to "Daydream Nation" by Sonic Youth for the first time while my family was traveling to Palm Springs during summer so when I hear "Teenage Riot" I think of feeling hot, sweaty, and annoyed by my brothers.

Definitely. They say sound and smell are the two senses most strongly associated with memory, and I can certainly believe it. I don't really have many specific examples, but I get a really strong sense of nostalgia from listening to a lot of Queen songs (most notably "Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy").

Yup.
Holy Diver and Master of Puppets - I always think of listening to them early on with my cousin and my uncle when we'd go to work with my uncle.
Light... Camera... Revolution! - I always think about my high school. Suicidal Tendencies are from Venice and I went to Venice High School so they are pretty popular there.
Hmm.. I'm not sure if any other albums I think of a place for. I'm usually just in my room with headphones listening to music.

Is This It - The Strokes, brand new CD player, 10 years old playing Dragon Ball Budokai 2 ! God, It was the best time, got so much excited by this album while kickin' some ass on Dragon Ball video game.

Most albums reminds me of my room, where I'm staring into a wall or looking out of a window

I heard Daydream Nation first lying in my bed at night, didn't really get into it immediately but it fascinated me enough that I went back to it a month later and it immediately hit me in a new amazing way. I can recall how I first heard most music pretty accurately, actually.

Not specific places usually, but with certain experiences and with what was going on in my life at that time definitely.
