Kind of Blue.
There's a good chart jtg did someone post please.

Also, that Kamasi's record kinda made me into jazz, cause all the pop production and acessible songs. Now looking in retrospect, this record is kinda shallow but I still like it.

Bill Evans has many good albums

Miles Davis, Art Blakey and Bill Evans

This is a pretty good list: >>68569467, but some of those are definitely albums for someone who's more familiar with jazz. Free jazz isn't exactly entry-level jazz. The album that got me into jazz is Herbie Hancock's Headhunters. I'd suggest starting with that one.

What are you into? There's a bunch of "definitive" introductory albums like Kind of Blue, but even those might not be your thing yet.

Wes Montgomery's Incredible Jazz Guitar was the first album that clicked for me (probably since I'm a guitarist), when other "definitive" albums like KoB didn't (I've since come to love it).

Other people I know got into jazz through fusion albums like Headhunters and Bitches Brew, or jazz-influenced hip-hop.

Here's some links to the stuff I mentioned:

Ill check these out too. The epic was enjoyable but i thought i should start with something more entry level to enjoy it more.

The Epic is as entry-level as it gets. Generally it depends on finding a sound you dig, I'm not heavily into some of the old jazz, for example.
