CDs?
My first records were probably on wax cylinders.
When I caved to modern technology it was nice to hear much more in a song and not have to listen to that scratchy-scratch stuff or worry about someone skidding the needle over my record and ruining it.Yeah yeah, you're old, most of us are. The point was what was the first CD you bought and what a revelation in sound quality it was.
Lemme check......... ... ..... ......But legal in Canada?
I answered that one. Then Les challenged me to a 'old dude competition.'
Noted and edited. I revoke and apologize for the shame I unjustly sent your way.
After spending some time going through my library, I've been able to determine my first CD was Temple of the Dog.

Awesome. I freaking love that record. Stings to listen to after the loss of CC, but still just a phenomenal album.
My first album (vinyl) was, in proper 80s fashion, a K-Tel compilation: The Beat - Sound Wave of the 80's . Got it as a gift and spun the hell out of it (and not because it was great or anything, haha).
My first CD came from my first paycheck, working at Musicland in Chicago when I was 15. I thought I'd won the lottery being able to get hired at that age in a record shop and enjoy an employee discount on music:
And it was DDD, in1986! I still listen to it regularly.
Correction: that was 1985, mea culpa.
