"Kind of Blue" by Miles Davis is the most famous jazz album, and is pretty easy to listen to if you're into swingin jazz. Also check out the album "Headhunters" by Herbie Han****, which is a funky/electric/groovy album, and was also the fastest selling jazz album in history, if i'm not mistaken. I WOULD NOT start with John Coltrane's "A Love Supreme," because it's pretty 'out there,' and might sound disorganized to the untrained ear.
