Late to the party, but will say that there are a whole lot of great suggestions in this thread. I’ll add several in no particular order, perhaps "debatable" to some, that really lit my system up:
Annie Lennox’ Nostalgia
Passport Blue Tattoo
Larry Coryell (pretty much everything)
Buddy Rich & Lionel Hampton Translation
Lady Gaga & Tony Bennett Cheek to Cheek
Frank Sinatra A Man And His Music
Stanley Clarke School Days
Weather Report Heavy Weather
A note on something not a many others have mentioned so far: Actually finding copies. Getz and Jobim is an old record and not so easily available in good shape. I got lucky and found a pristine copy online, albeit for ~$50 including shipping. 15 years ago. The Sinatra LP (a double Reprise original) was a still factory-sealed cut-out I found at a Goodwill for $1.50. My first copy of Stephanie Germanotta’s and Anthony Benedetto’s first LP rocked my world with the quality of its pressing. And then I dropped it putting it back in the sleeve. Took me two more copies to find another just as well-pressed.
You understand the reality I’m describing and have a good cleaning system. You might consider adding a Vinyl Flat to address the inevitable warped copies you’ll encounter that are otherwise just fine. And be both diligent and patient looking for things. First editions of desirable stuff could take years. Something that’s just got greasy fingerprints with no visible scratches you can fix.
Good luck, fun searching and happy listening!
