CDs? Uh, none at that age. They were on the market by then but hadn't really replaced analog media yet and I didn't even own a CD player until I was like 20. Did have some LPs and some tapes though. Some random then-contemporary pop poo poo that I mostly don't remember anymore, from before I started actually forming an interest in music. When I was about 14 I started getting into "real" rock music and collected things like every Bruce Springsteen album that existed at the time. Also some of what we'd call "heavy rock" such as Bon Jovi or Europe. Then just before I turned 16 I started high school and discovered "real" metal, pretty sure I managed to acquire at least one album each by Metallica, Slayer and Iron Maiden while I was still 15.

Yeah well, out of all the 80s pop music I can remember, Duran Duran at least lands on the respectable and not-crap side of the aisle. After I turned into a teenage metalhead I mostly ignored and disdained contemporary pop music as a whole but in hindsight it was a land of contrasts, as always. Some skillful and cool musicians among them. Having thought a bit more, I think the first CD I actually owned was Twillight of the Gods by Bathory, which I must have bought in 1991 or early 1992. At which point I still did not have a CD player because I had to go to a friend's house and make a copy on a tape so I could listen to it.
