I remember my first purchase CD, though before that I have no clue. It was a CD from the Sony Essential Classics line, with, IIRC, the New York Phil in the 50s playing "The Rite of Spring" (Stravinsky, duh) and exceprts from Profokiev's "Romea and Juliet" music. It's still a great CD.

 

[fumbduck]

ACE OF BASE, BABY!

 

[Jumpem]

I have never bought a CD or VHS/DVD. I think that the prices they charge are ridiculous. I'd be willing to pay $5 tops for a newly released movie or album.

 

[DurocShark]

Kiss Destroyer. LP. I was a kid.

 

[Jackhammerz]

1st tape Kris Kross- U know u wanna JUMP! JUMP!
1st CD The Chronic (a classic piece of Dr. Dre work)

 

[ClueLis]

Nirvana-Nevermind

 

[duke]

I don't remember which was first, but it's either Depeche Mode's Music For The Masses or The Best of OMD which were both in vinyl. The funny thing is I never owned a record player.

 

[Linflas]

Checking in from the Jurassic as well and the first record I recall purchasing with my own cash was Strawberry Alarmclock Incense and Peppermint on a 45. My first 2 cassettes were Country Joe And The Fish and Buffalo Springfield.
