I’d suggest the first i bought

Complete Blue Note Herbie Nichols

i doubt I’ll ever forget the sense of discovery. Scores of box sets later it still stands

!!!

What Clunky said and Soul-pope echoed.  OMG yes Herbie Nichols.  Cheers!

Art Blakey and the JMs.

1. The (In-) Complete Roulette Recordings of Maynard Ferguson

2. The (In-) Complete Roulette Recordings of Maynard Ferguson

3. Every other Mosaic I own.  A close third place (for some) to be sure, but it is what it is...that said, I will say I've only listened to the first couple of LP's of my Commodores...

Edit: I guess I didn't get the question of the thread correctly, I play all records for pleasure only, I consider myself a "dionysiac" record collector. I would rename the volume knob "intensity of pleasure".

The line about the volume knob made me laugh out loud.  Too funny.

The Basies and the Goodmans. At the third place, the Ellingtons (quite all) and the Armstrongs. But I love quite all the Mosaics I own (that are all of them, BTW)

I have to say real favorites are the Hodes and Nichols and the Ellington small group.

The Teagardens, Kenton Presents: Rosolino, and the Basie Roulettes, but I like most of 'em.
