The Ultimate Question?


I've thought of what might be the most important relevant/question, piece of information that a long time, serious, dedicated audiophile/music lover could ever wish to leave behind for an up and coming serious person to grab hold of and "grow"! Which 5 to 6 songs/half an album side would you leave for a serious person to hear and take away a serious series of songs to learn, grow, live from?
This might come by way of your life experience, socio-economic status, circle of life long friends,
I wanted to say, I'm still thinking, but here I go, ....
1. Has got to be something by Simon@Garfunkle, "America"!
2. Something from Robin Trower, "Lady Love"
3. Pink Floyd "Wish You Were Here"
4. Camel "Rajaz"
5. Iron Butterfly "Soldier In Town"
6. Black Sabbath "Faries wear Boots"
7. Extra... something from Nick Drake
I found myself wanting to start "side two" however, we'll see how it goes.

The question implies that the wisdom is in the lyrics, which is limiting. With that in mine here's mine:

Robert Johnson "Hellhound On My Trail"
Sarah Vaughan/Clifford Brown "September Song"
Public Enemy "Burn Hollywood Burn"
Bob Dylan "Memphis Blues Again"
Charlie Christian "Stardust"
John Coltrane "Alabama"
