What was your first CD ?

I bought 2 at once to celebrate my new CD boombox. Sgt. Pepper--bought it in June 1987 when it was first released on CD and Dark Side of the Moon.

I don't recall who I bought the pot from, but obviously, there was smoking to be done that evening.

I was a little late to the club.
My first one was Bruce Springtein - BORN IN THE USA !
It rocked my Firebird, with the T-tops off.
And the woman, were mine!
Yes, yes !!

Easy.. but I found Paul McCartney's 'Unplugged' in a record shop in Giessen, and I had JUST read in Newsweek that it was only a limited release.

Didn't have a CD Player for a couple of years later, but it's such a GREAT CD.

Funny. I recall how much those fetched back when it came and hoopla on being limited. Of course it as was all marketing to shift units.
I did find out that the Vinyl version was rare only available in Spain. I did get that for a good deal.
Yes, great album and love it. I would prefer to see and hear the complete session. Any leads?

I hate to say it, but it was the Miami Vice Soundtrack (1984).

Easy.. I was still deployed in Germany back in 1990 and didn't have a CD player yet, but I found Paul McCartney's 'Unplugged' in a record shop in Giessen, and I had JUST read in Newsweek that it was only a limited release.

Didn't have a CD Player for a couple of years later, but it's such a GREAT CD.

This was right when CD's were issued in L.A. It was Elvis Presley's first album, Elvis. Not much to choose from back then but RCA sure jumped on the technology. My dad still has it and I listened to it. Sounded terrible compared to new remasters. No mastering to Digital back in those days. Just straight dump to CD from 2 track masters.

I think it was Stevie Nicks The Other Side of the Mirror.

Debbie Gibson "Electric Youth"
Guns n roses "Use your illusion 2"

The record store thread got me thinking what my first CD was ... The Beatles Please Please Me ...... I actually bought it the day it was released and at the time I didn't even own a CD player yet

Do you remember your first CD ?
