Voodoo Lounge quite awhile before I even had a cd player, just so I would have the extra song that wasn't on the album or cassette.

Rod Stewart, "Unplugged...and Seated." A live recording, WITH special guest...Ron Wood!

"Take all the pain...It's yours anyway"

First CD bought in mid 80s was .....Rolling Stones - REWIND
Got my first CD Player a couple months later (Onkyo).
I bought several disks before having a player.
I had such a large record collection that I didn't think I'd be able to replace
all of them with CDs...so in the beginning I thought I would only buy
greatest hits or classic albums on CD. Of course when they became more
affordable I replaced every album i had and bought hundreds more.


IORR............but I like it!

I got a whole bunch of CDs around Christmas 1988, including The Clash's first album (US version), Dark Side of the Moon, Pleased to Meet Me (Replacements), Exile, and a Dire Straits anthology. My first CD that I had not previously purchased in another format was New York by Lou Reed. Steel Wheels was the first Stones album that I had not bought on vinyl.

i can't even remember the most recent album i've illegally downloaded...and i'm supposed to remember the first cd i bought a quarter-century ago? yeah, sure.

I bought the Beach Boys "Good Vibrations" box set before I had a CD player -- got one the next day!

A Dave Edmunds Live CD.

No idea, but the first LP I owned was The Beatles' "Something New." The first cassette I made was a TDK 90 minute job with Some Girls on Side one and Emotional Rescue on Side two, recorded from my older brother's albums. At that point, I numbered my cassettes. It was number 001.

Boy those jewel cases were so much heavier too.

Nice bro! Yeah the jewel case was forced on us and sucked from the beginning. What a scam. I LOVE that Police record, my favorite of them all. Nice! peace.

The Cream of Eric Clapton and...the Top Gun soundtrack (I know, I know!).

Steve Winwood's Higher Love and U2's Joshua Tree

I bought Micks Throwaway CD single in 1987, then Dirty Work in a sale and U2 Angel Of Harlem CD single (with KR). Didn't get a CD player till 1989. On the way to the shop bought Some Girls because it was always the first LP/casette/CD I played and play on new equipment.

Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow-----------"RISING" ¡What a intro to the song Tarot Woman!

The mix on Rainbow Rising always gets blasted for being thin. Is the 2CD version better?

Wandering Spirit! My first cd was Legend by Marley though, a christmas present,

Spent £100 on CDs the day I got my first player. Some cheapos, but mainly albums that I couldn't live without at the time (as I shelved my vinyl the same day). Purchases included Exile. Also got Hound Dog Taylor's first album, John Prine's first and Blood On The Tracks. Think BB King's Live At The Regal was another.

bought four in 1991
stones-exile on main street
zeppelin- houses of the holy
doors-the soft parade
tesla five man acoustical jam

bought stones 70.s,begíning of the 90's


anyway i bought a box set ,swedish group tages in 94,today i can't play it.

Bridges to Babylon and The Cream Of Clapton - same day. I was late to the CD race. I do actually own an Ipod now.

I held out as long as I could but by about late '91 it was getting harder to find new vinyl releases so I finally broke down and bought a CD player. The first CD I bought was 'Steel Wheels'. (Even though I already had it on vinyl.)

I think it was Rewind actually, the year it came out, 1986? That or Dirty Work - back before I knew it was awful.

The Dead Boys - "Young Loud And Snotty" was my first CD.

Ron Wood, Bo Diddley: Live at the Ritz

Beat At The Beeb-for $50. After that, first official CD was Hooker'n'Heat.
