I think these two were tied first:

Neneh Cherry - Raw Like Sushi
Ravel's "Bolero"/ Moussorgski's "Pictures From an Exhibition", by the Concertgebouw Orchestra (conducted by Ricardo Chailly).

I think my first CD was to replace my Neil Young 'Harvest' album which was getting scratchy.

Madonna's "Keep It Together" Maxi Single

My first wasn't actually bought until the early 90s (proves how 'with it' I was!  :-[)

It was Dire Straits' 'Money For Nothing' compilation...why? Well, the general critical opinion was you could only 'appreciate' Dire Straits music on CD, so it seemed like a good place for me to start...

Still doesn't make an excuse for the terrible 'Walk Of Life', though... :P

Good topic.  I made one purchase for 3 CD's in 1991:
Pearl Jam - Ten (sorry, it's 90's)
Rush - Moving Pictures (1981)
Aha - Scoundrel Days (1988) - actually a great CD! Still enjoy it

Since posting my first two CDs above, I am trying to remember what my first classsical CD was. I think it was Brahms Symphony No.1.

Let's see.

The first cd I ever got was Michael Jackson's Bad album, but my mom bought that.

The first cd I bought was...probably Off the Wall. (I've bought them so quickly, I've kinda lost track. LOL.)

I do listen to other music outside of MJ though.  ;)
