Building a 100 album vinyl collection 3 must have albums are?


No opera or rap in the three must haves. Sorry.

I'll add 3 that haven't been mentioned and could be my desert lp's.  These aren't my top three, but so many of my fav's have already been mentioned.  All are awesome discs with great content throughout.

Tommy Bolin -Teaser

Santana III- one of the greatest guitar albums ever with an awesome groove

Grover Washington Jr.-Skylarkin

Bonus: George Benson-White rabbit

The point would be to get the most enjoyable musical experience, so in my book, direct to disk is the only game in town. 

Sheffield The King James Version  ( Harry James)

Sheffield, Hollywood Town  ( Amanda McBroom)

I never found a really well done classical guitar.  Kind of why I quit playing "with" music and went CD so I could just "play" music.  Yes, an LP can sound great, but on average, no. Limited dynamic range, poor SNR, ticks-pops, eq that is very rarely close to RIAA,  and never sound as good as the second playing again. 

Now, the above responses did list a bunch of great music that should be in everyone's library, be it a 45 or HDCD. A few I am missing.  Darn, got to have them!

1) Steely Dan - Aja

2) Brian Eno- Another Green World

3) John Coltrane- A Love Supreme
