I can't remember my first cassette for sure, but i think it was probably The Offspring because I remember jumping on the trampoline and blasting that from my boombox.
First CD as a household was Alannis Morrisette, Jagged Little Pill. The CD player also came with a Conway Twitty CD, so those were the only two we had for awhile--hilarious combo!

INXS--Never Tear Us Apart
It was a 45 (that's a single for those who never owned vinyl). I got it while trick or treating because my grandparents' neighbor worked for a record company and had tons of promotional records, so he handed them out with the candy at Halloween. I got to pick between two but can't remember the other one.
Honcho - I see your CD single and raise you the cassingle...the cassette single. Oh yeah, I have a few of those still.
My first tape and my first CD? I honestly can't remember what I would have bought first but I'm going to go with Martika's self titled album. I was obsessed with Toy Soldiers.
I used play records on my parents record player and just run circles around the player while singing at the top of my lungs. We had the 45 with the theme song from Greatest American Hero. I also rocked out to Queen.
First record (yep, record) was the Go-Go's Beauty and the Beat. First tapes (got them together) MJ's Bad and Debbie Gibson's Electric Youth. First CD was Jagged Little Pill.
Side note - I lost my virginity to Ace of Base's don't turn around. Yup. That was all it took and it was over.

I had a record single of Billy Joel's Uptown Girl. On the other side was Innocent Man. I played that thing so much it drove my parents crazy!
ETA: my first tape was Bon Jovi's Slippery When Wet and my first CD was Nirvana's Nevermind.
Sent from the back seat of your car....
My first tape was Slippery When Wet too!! I was like 7, I'm pretty sure that was pretty inapproriate. My first CD was Poison- Open up and Say Ahh. My parents obviously didn't monitor my music much
