First CD was Nirvana "Live Unplugged in NY"
At the time, I don't think I really understood what "Dr. Feelgood" was all about. I really thought he was a Dr. I was about 8

The first album I bought with my own money... http://i.imgur.com/qPMmc.jpgThat was third or so for me, classic memories, 5th grade maybe? Trouble makers!
Kiss Unmasked 1980. First album I ever bought with my own money. I was 6 I didn't realize how bad they suck. Probably because my older cousins liked them and I liked the comic book inside.

Run dmc raisin hell and beastie boys license to ill
1st Cassette: Stones- Some Girls (bought in '78)
1st CD (I'm pretty sure): Dire Straits- Brothers in Arms ('85, was holding-out as long as possible to go DIGITAL!)

Iron Maiden: Live After Death. I think I was 11, and I was going strictly on the iron maiden reference in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure. Still one of the greatest live albums ever recorded by any band of the non-Phish variety.
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61ehF-Ub08L._SL500_AA300_.jpgAgreed. Hey, did any one else spend HOURS learning to draw EDDIE? I learned in like 7th or 8th grade. Needless to say that when "bookcover time" came I was a VERY popular kid.

Born In the USA (Bruce)
Raisin Hell (Run DMC)
1984 (The brothers Halen)
Survivor
The Real Roxanne (UTFO)
Pretty sure my first CDs were:
Pump (Aerosmith)
Vivid (Living Colour)
I had some record albums when I was a really little kid - the Davy Crockett Theme song and a lot of Beach Boys. Thriller was the first album of popular music that I remember in the house.
Edit: @gigglestik - Stay Hungry made an early appearance too.
Vivid Living Colour (on cassette)
I think that covers ALL recorded music for me.
OH...8-Track, yeah, I had one ELO.
