Getz/Gilberto - everything - gentle and romantic

Neil Young - live, alone, acoustic, small intimate venues (mostly bootlegs) - raw, emotional performances

Pink Floyd - early, live recordings, best before Dark Side of the Moon (mostly bootlegs) - cutting edge (but still accessible) experimentation with music that evokes awe and respect for human creativity (like the Beatles, but we all know about what awesome work *they* did).
