No order,

Secret Story - Pat Metheny

Kind Of Blue - Miles Davis

Guitar Jazz - George Benson

American Garage - Pat Metheny

The Incredible Jazz Guitar - Wes Montgomery

Hot Rats - Frank Zappa (I consider it a jazz album, not in the traditional sense, but a jazz album none the less)

Obviously I like guitar Jazz, and usually rockin jazz. But I definetly appreciate composers like Davis, Parker, etc, just am not as amazed.
