As I'm starting to rebuild my vinyl again I think that this would be a good place to ask people what are some of the must haves for that music collection?

Be careful what you ask for. Here are a few albums that I would go for:

   Pink Floyd, DOSTM
   Supertramp Breakfast in America
   Sting, Dream of the blue turtles
   AC/DC, Bat out of Hell
   Synergy, Chords
   Fleetwood Mac, Rumors
   

   Bach, Organ music
   Beetoven, Sym #5
   Tycophsky, The Firebird
   Soundtrack from The Pianist


   Because of a major BRAIN FART, that's all I got for now.

Would be most helpful to know what genre's you like.  Big difference between Hip Hop and Be Bop; Bach and Beatles!!!

I think this would be a great place everyone to post there thoughts. My personal music preferences are for:

Classic rock
Jass
Motown
Blues

I recently picked up:
George Benson and Earl Klugh's - Collaboration
Sting - Dream of the Blue Turtles
Steely Dan - Gaucho and Countdown to Ecstasy
Diane Shuur - Schuur Thing

There were some others that I can't remember, but will update later when I get home.

If you want stunning mastering and pristine pressings go with Music Matters Blue Note series (if you like jazz) or MoFi or Analogue Production.

That's pretty interesting. I didn't know some of those albums even existed - AC/DC, Bat out of Hell? Tycophsky, The Firebird? And what exactly is a beet oven?

To avoid this becoming an ad for the reissue labels I'll throw a few knuckleballs-

Earl Hooker, Two Bugs and a Roach
Captain Beefheart, Clear Spot
The Hot Spot (original soundtrack)

Doc, a Beefheart fan!

That changes everything, and totally ups the cool-factor of the company.  8)

Clear Spot, though, is not my favorite Beefheart, and the Reprise reissue I have doesn't exactly sound stellar.

(By the way, every copy of Spotlight Kid I've ever heard sounds crummy. Too bad.)

Yeah, well, sometimes like the forum title says, it's just about the music.

My house Brad!  I've got 400 plus sitting on the floor looking for a new home.  Give me a call and hopefully you can come down soon :)
