Probably Kind of Blue as a kid, but picking up Kamasi Washington’s The Epic was what really turned me on to jazz.

In the early 1970s I started to inspire for jazz with Organ Grinder Swing of Jimmy Smith (and especially Kenny Burrell) and Time Out of Dave Brubeck

The first (I actually enjoyed) has to be "Studio Sessions, Chicago 1956" by Duke Ellington

I think it was the John Coltrane Quartet playing live: Chim-Chim-Cherie, Nature Boy & Naima . It made a huge impact (and led me to take up the saxophone).

I think it was best of Horace Silver v1 on Blue Note. I would get to shake his hand one day, a true god of jazz. Grip like steel too.

Mingus Ah Um by Charles Mingus. I think it was a re-issue
