Simple proposition.
This can be anything. It can be specific to era, to musical genre, politically definitive or to your own personal circumstances and your musical tastes.
For me, GSH "Pieces of a Man from 1970. Maybe something of an eclectic choice, the album remains definitive to me as it's unique mix of jazz, soul and early (pre) rap was revolutionary at the time and led to so many black musical genres over coming decades.
The fact that almost the entire album remains both politically and socially relevant almost half a century after it's release is another feather in its cap. A remarkably important piece of work IMHO. Definitive in the way that it melded jazz, socially important poetry and soul music into a cohesive album.
