First cd purchase

I was just wondering what our fellow audiogoners first cd purchase was and when. I believe mine was sometime in the late 80s and it was an opera RCA box set of Otello with Vickers,Rysanek,and Gobbi. And now its your time to tell us, what was your first cd purchase.

Easy: Sade, Promise.1985. Played on my new $500 Sony CD Player that I purchased on my first line of credit - a Macy's Credit Card. I will never forget listen to to that disc at night with the lights out...it was amazing! (at the time).

RUSH - Chronicles, in Dec. 1990, after wearing out my Rush LP's! It sounded really good, even then!

I purchased a Sony 5 disc changer and Bob James' "Obsession". He was in his electronic phase and it still kicks today.
