Maybe something by Nik Bartsch or Mathias Eick or Marcin Wasilewski Trio, or maybe something newer by Jizue or Mouse on the Keys. I can't really decide.

I'm fairly new to jazz myself and have only listened to a handful of albums. The one's I've enjoyed the most so far is Miles Davis' In A Silent Way and if we're throwing Soft Machine in this, Third.

I'm not a kind of guy who enjoys pure, abstract jazz. Different people will give you different answers on what jazz is all about.
That said, I say The Softs' "Third" at this moment.

Again, I'll stay away from the 70's JR/F groups and albums, which would probably hog 9 out of 10 spots (except for Coltrane and Tyner
Jazz Artistes first:
Sooo I'll mostly stick to pre-67 jazz artistes and again in no particular order
Mingus
Coltrane (this includes McCoy Tyner and Alice, both of which will havev their best works in the 70's)
Davis
Lateef,
Brubeck
Shorter/Hancock (pre-70's)
Sun Ra
Eric Dolphy
Lionel Hampton
Satchmo Armstrong
Mentions to Ellington, Bird and Monk
---------------------------------
pre-67 jazz list of course
in no particulart order, btw
A Love supreme
Kind Of blue
Time Out (Brubeck)
Eastern sounds (Y Lateef)
Black saint & Lady Sinner (Mingus)
Sketches Of Pain (Miles & Gil)
Out O The Coll and The Individualism of Gil Evans
Village Vanguard (Coltrane)
Out to Lunch (Dolphy)
Africa/Brass (Trane)
The Nubians of Plutonia or Angels and Demons at Play (Sun Ra)
--------------------------
I'll post a post-67 list ASAIC

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Pretty impossible to choose one here, though the first two that popped up in my head were Mingus' Black Saint and Pharoah Sanders Karma. Loved those for years.

Just one, eh?
That's a very tough decision, but ultimately I would probably go for this one:

Haiku
Writing a poem

The Cat by Jimmy Smith transformed me from an occasional listener to a consumer.
Blues based and Hammond driven this one.
