Thelonious Monk - Brilliant Corners is fantastic and I think a great transition point album for jazz, though obviously Kind of Blue is probably the most common choice there

seconding Highway 61 Revisited, you need one dylan album and thats probably the most essential

i like your style. i have quite a few of those.
