not sure if by eric clapton you mean all of clapton's work, but if not, check out cream and derek and the dominoes,

rolling stones, the who, jefferson airplane, the kinks, jethro tull, grateful dead, aerosmith, blood sweat tears, crosby stills nash young, neil young, creedence clearwater revival, guess who

lemme know if you need more or specific albums. Most of these bands you can probably get by with just greatest hits albums.

If you want good albums of bands in the post, I'd recommend...(note all of these are in order of preference):

floyd: dark side (obviously), piper at the gates of dawn, wish you were here, the wall, animals

zeppelin: IV, II, I, III, houses of holy, physical graffiti

jimi: are you experienced, axis: bold as love (but overall just recommend a hits album)

clapton (assuming all encompassing): I'd get cream of clapton b/c it has stuff from his whole career (cream, solo, derek dominoes, etc)

queen: just get the hits again

acdc: back in black, highway to hell, dirty deeds

beatles: sgt peppers, revolver, white album, help, a hard day's night, let it be, abbey road, magical mystery tour, rubber soul, with the beatles, please please me, beatles for sale. You really need every album they've done.
