For me it comes down to my favorites in my favorite genres.

Jazz and Jazz Fusion : Elegant Gypsy - Al DiMeola ; Electric Guitarist - John McLaughlin. Any Chick Corea "album"

Blues / Power Blues : Bridge of Sighs - Robin Trower

Rock: Brain Salad Surgery, Tarkus, Pictures at an Exhibiton - Emerson Lake and Palmer ;
Fragile, Close to the Edge, and almost every other album from the group "Yes".
Also various albums from Alan Parsons, Pink Floyd and Frank Zappa.
