Mine was some various artists cassette back in 1983 (or 82??) when I was very young.
It had “Gloria” (Laura Branigan) for example.
My first CD: The Essential Marilyn Monroe some 10 years later.

off topic: my first Roxette: Tourism tape.

My first vinyl record is really far too embarrassing to tell you... but my first CD was the Spending My Time single :-)

Mine was a cassette with various artists which included The Look (by Roxette) :)

My mom or my grandparents would usually buy my records for me (I was too young to buy them myself), but included in my collection:
Mary Poppins, Pete’s Dragon, The Black Hole, Pollyanna (I think that was more for my mom than me), anything Sesame Street, and a whole passle of others. Currently, in my dwindled collection, it’s all Roxette.

Vinyl would have been an ABBA best of compilation in the mid-to-late seventies.
The first cassette I bought was probably Eurythmics “Be Yourself Tonight”. (1985ish)
The first CD I bought was Kate Bush’s “The Sensual World”—a duplicate of one I had on tape.
“Look Sharp!” was certainly one of the first few I (re)bought, and that was because (I Could Never) Give You Up wasn’t on the cassette. C!B!B! was the first CD-only purchase for Roxette. . .
The first CD I bought that I didn’t already have on cassette? Who knows. I think Annie Lennox’s “Diva”.

I was too poor to buy any aww. My friends always made me mixed cassettes. I am pretty sure my first album was Alanis Morrisettes’s Jagged Little Pill. Gotta be one of the first things i bought when i started working i think.

First single brought for me. 99 Red Balloons by Nena closely followed by Karma Chamelion (that isn’t spelt right!) by Culture Club, first album was Kylie’s first album. First CD I brought myself was Now 20!! That’s a few years ago!

Crazy for You - David Haselhof
I was very very very young and had no idea of good music, ;-)
ally77 said on September 3, 2005 20:18:
I think the first album I officially bought was Look Sharp on cassette.... Mum bought me Joyride on cassette as a pressie and a few months later I bought Look Sharp!
Previous to that other LP’s and cassettes where bought as presents for me etc...

It was Crash!Boom!Bang! on cassette...
The first CD recording I bought was “You don’t understand me” single. However I couldn’t listen to it until Christmas since I got my first CD-player just then for present along with “Don’t Bore Us”.
Jud (moderator) said on August 30, 2005 20:11:
uh, no, I don’t think so.. but it must have been something with either Kylie or Jason Donovan.. or some Catalan band called Sopa de Cabra, somewhen back in 87 or so. I *think* ...
