How about you? What was your first music disc?

My first legitimately purchased CD was Pink Floyd "Works.," but that wasn't my first CD.

My first CDs were promo "CD Singles" from Sony that I got with my D-5. 'Had some Queen and Madonna on them and a bunch of other stuff. They crumbled into dust a couple of years before I could rip them.

I ordered a bunch of Pink Floyd, Pat Benetar, Yes and Moody Blues from the Columbia House Record Club when they first started selling CDs. It was one of those 10 discs for a penny promos.

They sent me Billy Joel's "Glass Houses," Pat Benatar's "Tropico," a couple of Abba discs and 6 Michael Jackson CDs, including three copies of "Off the Wall."

(Coincidentally, my sister's first CDs included a couple of Abba discs and a small Michael Jackson collection and the first CD that I ever sold for store credit was "Off the Wall.")
