Mine was a Chicago Box Set in 1991. We were dating and he gave it to me for some occasion. Great, I like Chicago. The only thing was I didn't have a CD player. He told me I could keep them at his house since he had a player.

Metallica - Ride the Lightning

For some reason I can't remember what my first CD was. I can remember my first album, Madonna's Like a virgin, but it was in tape form.

My first CD was a special issue by 'The Body Shop' of 10,000 Maniac's MTV Unplugged. It was in handmade paper with a little bamboo piece holding it shut. I believe the CD was a benefit for promoting trade with underdeveloped countries, or something like that. I was/am a 10,000 Maniacs nut, so I had to have it. Most expensive CD I ever bought, since I had to also buy a CD player to actually play it!

I still have it in great shape, actually, but I managed to lose the little bamboo piece.

I don't remember my 1st. I didn't get a CD player until the summer before leaving for college in 1993. I bought a lot of used CDs. I do remember my 3rd CD was U2's Joshua Tree, and my Dad bought it for me.

My first CD was Linear. I wish it was something way more exciting! my dad was all proud that Christmas that he had gotten me something great. they had one hit. "sending all my love" it was pretty catchy

 

[FlightlessDuck]

I keep wanting to say Achtung Baby! whenever this question comes up, but to be honest I don't remember.

I am pretty sure my first cassette was The Joshua Tree, but it might have been Pump or something from Billy Joel or Phil Collins.

My first record was either Thriller or a Chupmunks album.

 

[Disneyland Princess]

My first CD was N sync when I was 10 maybe. It was either that or Britney Spears Oops!... I Did It Again.

 

[Robinrs]

I don't remember EVER buying a cd in the 80s because I worked in radio and got them all for free. I do remember my program director bringing in the first cd player and all of us gathering around to see this "laser" play a record...


man, i'm old...

 

[Diznygrl]

The Little Mermaid soundtrack for Christmas in '89 or '90. I didn't have my own CD player yet but we had the "communal" CD player in the living room. It was one of those fancy 10-disc changer deals. Man, that thing was a beast!
