Yes: Classic Yes

First cd purchase I ever made. And I had all of their records on vinyl but thought it would be fun to buy it anyway.

I shit you not.

You are alone.

I would like to point out that when NKOTB were big, most people i knew didn't own CD players yet, and the dumb chicks that owned their material most likely owned it on commercial cassette.

Either Peri's family is rich, or he bought that CD in the mid-90s after most everyone else knew better.

I owned Hangin' Tough and the first one (yes, the first one) on cassette. For Christmas 1990 my dad bought my sister and I a CD player. He didn't know what to get us for a CD so he just got Hangin' Tough because he knew we liked New Kids on the Block. I think I was kind of getting over them by then. I soon cancelled my Columbia House cassette membership and changed to CDs. My first 8 included, Britny Fox's Boys in Heat, Enuff 'Z Nuff s/t, Bell Biv Devoe's Poison and Faith No More's The Real Thing.

We're even. My first record ever was Destroyer which my mom bought me when I was 3 1/2.

Why I went through that New Kids phase I have no idea.

Metallica - And Justice For All...
Various Artists - Sub Pop 100


Wonder what the fuck ever became of those discs.

Cd? or just my first recorded music purchase?

Cd= The Cure-Staring at the sea

Tape / vinyl= Cowboy Junkies - Trinity Session

It was actually In Utero. Up until then I was a bit of a Vinyl Ludite and didn't even own a CD player. But 1993 I was in Australia for half a year and buying Vinyl proved to be impractical cause it would melt in the car, but we wanted to listen to the new Nirvana while driving from Sydney to Brisbane, and the guys we were staying with didn't even have a record player that we would have needed to transfer the thing onto tape, so I bought my first CD.
First record I bougth was the Red Album, but I was 11 at the time so you have to be sympathetic.

Glynnis!

These 2 were in the list of my first few music purchases, along with Ministry-The Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Taste.

Oh, and the Green River - S/T with the black and green cover.........I still really like that record.
