I think it was mentioned, but just in case: Stanley Turrentine (w/ Grant Green, Horace Parlan, George Tucker, Al Harewood) live album Up at Minton's. This is the best instrumental version of "Come Rain or Come Shine" I have ever heard. Such a sick bass groove.

Anything John Coltrane did is worth owning. Go ahead and get the Classic Quartet box set.

Thanks for posting this! My only addition is Wes Montgomery and Wynton Kelly - Smokin' at the Half Note.

I'm surprised it took someone this long to object. I like them a lot, but honestly wouldn't rank this as a must-have. I think for the average person, a "Best of" from one of the major recording labels (Blue Note, Verve, Chess, Columbia--not Sony; Atlantic) would provide the necessary jumping off point to cultivate a personal preference.
