Yes, I think that would be my choice too.
Their music is still 'fresh' today.

Bob Dylan - John Wesley Harding
The Rolling Stones - Aftermath
The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Axis Bold As Love
Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin 1
The Who - The Who By Numbers
The Beatles - The White Album
All on vinyl, and the beauty of vinyl is you get a decent album cover as opposed to the tiny CD inserts!

Bob Dylan - John Wesley Harding my second favourite
And on the vinyl album cover, if you turn it upside down you can see a very tiny photo of the Beatles in the tree trunk. You can't see it on the CD insert.
Another favourite is Wish You Were Here.
I liked Bob Dylan when I was younger...but I think I have outgrown him now....except when his songs are covered by someone else.
Rubber Soul by the Beatles....don't have it anymore. I lent it to someone to take to a party and it never came back....serves me right. I should have known better!
My first was "Outlandos D'Amour" in 1978 -the first album by The Police.
By chance i was listening to it in the car (on CD now!)as i took my 19 yr old into town earlier today -he loves it too. He's a keen musician and loves the fusion of Rock and Reggae in the songs.
There are quite a few classics on it -Roxanne, Message in a Bottle (my favourite), So Lonely and Walking on the Moon.

An addition to my earlier list: Music from Big Pink by The Band.
Yeah, "The Weight" is one of the greatest songs ever and their version of "This wheels on fire" is also brill but I prefer their second album just called "The Band"
