It was even earlier than that actually.
In my uncle's house he has a number of Beatles CD singles.
Since the Fab Four split in 1970, that surely means that the CD single was invented in the late sixties, if not earlier.

My earliest is also FGTH's "Rage Hard", from Sept 1985. I bought a CD
player just to hear it! The 'Moments in Love' CD single from germany is
a bit misleading, the copyright date on it refers to the time it came
out on vinyl, the CD was (if I recall correctly) actually released about
a year later.
