Jazz Recommendations

I am just starting to get into Jazz. I recently bought Thelonious Monk Quartet "Live at Monterey" and was blown away. Could you recommend other mainstream Jazz recordings that I should have in a basic collection to help me get started.

Off the top of my quirky little head:

Charles Mingus: "Changes 1" and "Changes 2" - both wonderful
Oliver Nelson: "Blues and the Abstract Truth"
Art Pepper: "Landscape" "Art Pepper Today"
James Newton "The African Flower"
Abbey Lincoln "Wholly Earth"
Joe Venuti and George Barnes "Gems"
