what was the first Music CD YOU ever purchased?

thought this would be interesting...
mine was Megadeth "Rust in Peace" 1990, I still have it and it still plays fine

How about you?

 

Just about every CD I've purchased at an un-signed rock band's concert. It seems so good live, but then you put it in the cd player and you're all "This is what I just saw?!" I saw this one band at my university about 2 years ago, and I could swore they were the next Pitchshifter (british industrial metal group...pretty good. you should check em out), so I bought the CD they were selling. It was the most god-awful, tone-deaf crap I've ever heard. Bands like that should ask for donations, and just GIVE away the cd's. More exposure that way anyway. Sure, you may take a loss, but it's all about the music....riiiiight? ...Actually, better yet, they should record themselves playing live!

 

Matallica: Load.... Still have it scratched all to hell wont even spin up let alown play but iv had the songs safely backed up since 2000 .........

 

you know...if i'm going to give such a bitter response, i should probably read the actual thread title properly. I read WORST cd...not FIRST. My bad.

My FIRST cd (ugh ) was Metallica's Black Albumn. Still in great shape too.

 

first cd was... either RHCP's Californication or Children Of Bodom's cd 'Follow The Reaper'.

 

I dunno really, whatever it was, it was long. long ago! 'Prolly something classical in nature. Those that know me and my vintage will probably realise the original composer was most likely still alive.

 

Green Day Dookie

 

Millencolin: Pennybridge Pioneers
good band.. check em out

 

mine would have to be my all time fav Ozzy Osbourne Blizzard of Ozz

 

Believe it or not, I was nine years old when I bought 40 oz. to Freedom by Sublime. I had to hide it for years, so that my parents wouldn't kill me.

 

9? I'm old. . . .


me as in myself with my money?

Steve Jones, I think, but I am not sure
it had a cool cover

 

1990, Pink Floyd - Delicate Sound Of Thunder and a Panasonic Portable CD Player. Both of which still work fine.

 

that is the best live Album ever
he(( yea!!!

 

Tool - Lateralus

 

Resurrection Band "Awaiting your Reply" http://www.resurrectionband.com
and Larry Norman "Only Visiting This Planet"

 

These are records not cds on CD it would be The Crucified "Pillars of Humanity"
and REZ Band "Silence Screams"

 

I know it's NOT a CD, well is now , but wasn't then. "Rubber Soul" by the Beatles (Mono). guess that dates me! Still have it and it still plays well. I still have over 2,00 Albums (33 1/3 RPM Vinyl things) over 400 Albums( 78 RPM older things) and about 100 VERY OLD EDISON DISCs. About 40-8 track tapes, 2 4-track tapes , 200+ cassette Tapes and Over 1,00 CDs. Sure now they come out with digital music which requires very little shlf space for storage.... BUT can they give you the skip of a record or the hiss of a tape???? NOOOOO
You could always tell a gr8 party alnum by how many skips it had.

 

Can't remember what the first CD was. I remember I got ten for a cent though.

The first record album I bought was "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars" in 1972. Still got it, and it still plays fine.

 

i dun hav any CDs...
i only hav an mp3 player

 

The first album I ever bought was the Soundtrack from Grease...It was good at the time

 

Have that on vinyl. First Cd? hmmmmm Boston - Third Stage I do believe.

 

Can't really remember-- was nearly 20 years and over 1000 CDs ago. Probably some "show off the new toy" all-digital recording disc with orchestral movie themes and synthesizer instrumentals. Very popular back then was anything recorded/mixed/mastered digitally-- didn't really matter if you had ever heard of the artist or not. Lots of new age crap, Kitaro, Flim & the BBs, Mannheim Steamroller, James Newton Howard, Sheffield Labs recordings (the equivalent of Mobile Fidelity even before MF got into CD)-- digital was the new buzzword.

First CD player was the original Sony DiscMan D-5 portable-- brand new, $300, only three in town to be had Christmas that year, and I got one to give as a gift. She kept bugging me to tell her what she was getting-- I got fed up and finally just said "a CD player". It shut her up, alright, as she never would have believed that little package was in fact a CD player. Should have seen the look on her face when she opened it.

A friend worked at a stereo store, and the owner-- in lieu of paying his health insurance for him-- gave him 6 CDs a month free. Some months there wasn''t anything he liked, but he took 6 discs just the same. Anything he didn't care for, or tired of quickly, he offered to me-- free! He had, even back then, an Japanese import CD of the Beatles' Abbey Road-- domestic issues of any Beatles albums on CD were still years away-- it was like the CD Holy Grail. I can remember never being more shocked than when he gave it to me for Christmas one year.

 

You bet. I picked-up Dark Side Of The Moon on CD shortly after that so I don't damage my first printing vinyl release.

PULSE concert is pretty good also.

 

None !!!

 

Can't remember the first CD but i do remember my first record...........it was She loves you by the Beatles ............I was very very young lol, oh and it cost six shillings and six pence

 

My first music CDs were a gift. Two disk set. Bluegrass music. The first I bought myself was a collection of several different artists.

 

Pink Floyd - The Wall.

 

Genesis - Abacab 198....hmmm

 

im too embarassed to say which was my first ... but Metallicas And Justice for All was my third or fourth

 

Same here. In all reality, Sublime was my third or fourth as well

 

New Kids On The Block, right?

Micheal Jackson?

I had the Thriller LP, But who didn't really. . admit it every one. . .
