I had purchased it and Simple Minds' "Once Upon A Time", but I listened to Rush first. I was blown away by the fact that where there was no music, there was the most profound, utter silence. I imagined that it was silent like in a vacuum, like in outer space. I had an excellent pair of Sennheiser headphones and I thought it was the coolest thing I had ever heard, that silence.
The CD is 25 years old.
Tell me what you listened to first.

Gee - I'm young and I have no idea what the first CD was . . . but I can say that I barely remember those larger black CDs . . . what were they called, albums?? LOL!!
Just kidding. My first CD was probably something like New Kids on the Block - sad to say.

I'm pretty sure I bought Boston Yes and the Eagles on my first CD trip. It's been so long I can't remember for certain though.
