Miles Davis has some other good stuff you should check out if you haven't yet. Charles Mingus as well., and Blue Train by John Coltrane I find great. If you like the blues there's Little Richards, BB King, Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, Howlin' Wolf, Sonny Boy Williams, Ray Charles, John Lee Hooker. and even Sam Cooke. Probably not considered the best records of all time since it's just the simple blues and not the over the top Jazz but for their time that's some damn good music in my opinion. Good start though, that's a gnarly top 10.
