Ellington, Mingus, Coltrane and Miles. Celibidache, Von Karajan, Gould, Michelangeli. Lee Perry in various guises adds up to a couple of days worth if you include productions where he is not the named artist.
From the 70s it reads a bit like a "Fluff" Freeman playlist: Bowie, Lou with & without the Velvets, Tangerine Dream, Roy Harper, Peter Hammill with & without VdGG, Fripp / Crimson, Eno, Fairports, Dylan, Zappa, Bill Nelson with & without Be Bop Deluxe, Yes, The Who, Floyd, Marillion, Genesis, Zep & the Stones.
I also have a ludicrous amount of Dead material. I don't even like them all that much though at three hours plus per show it doesnt take long to fill a day with noodling.
The only relatively "modern" artists I have that much music by are The Mars Volta, Rheostatics and Cope.
