Your First CD!

I still have it & cherish old CDs cut from masters without much monkeying around.   I also have my first CD player, a Sony "Disc-Man" portable, that I still love! 

Bob Marley "Live"

Jimmy Smith and Wes Montgomery "Dynamic Duo"

The Band "Big Pink".....sounded terrible!

Van the Man "Astral Weeks"

I bought my first (and only) CD player in 2000 in Copenhagen, and the first CD, I got, was Ragas and Sagas by Garbarek & Khan which I bought about a year before the player in a rather small specialist shop also in Copenhagen. It was a bit exiting to buy this first CD, many years after the technology came to Denmark.

Let's eat a bank!

I moved to Queensland from New South Wales in mid 1992. I initially moved into a rental for six months while the house I currently live in was being built a few kilometres away. I recall buying my first CD player, but don't recall where in Queensland I was living at the time (the shopping centre where I bought the CD player isn't a clue). Let's say I got my first CD late 1992 or early 1993. I wasn't especially keen to move over to the new technology, but eventually succumbed as it was becoming clear that the old technology was becoming obsolete. I can only recall one CD although there may have been another one or two that I bought at the same time. The CD I do recall was 10cc - A Decade of Hits. I didn't have any 10cc in my collection at the time, and I never bought any since, though I do like the CD I bought.
