    I'm with Walt on the Traffic cut but here's one not posed yet, and yes, I believe it qualifies as "instrumental" even though there are sections using the human voice as an instrument:

    That's a good album[Blues For Salvador]. I remember I bought that after seeing the movie Salvador. I played it my car with a Herbie Hancock album on cassette tape the whole summer of '88.
    There's excellent musicians on it. I'm not the biggest Santana fan, but that album is excellent.

    I consider instrumentals to be vocal free, but I'll make an exception for a song like Tequilla or something with spoken word like To Live is To Die by Metallica.

    Asterisk Division: There's about two minutes of vocals at the beginning but that still leaves about fifteen minutes of benchmark rock instrumental.

    Boston - Foreplay
    Stanley Clarke - School Days (the whole album)
    Weather Report - Heavy Weather (the whole album)

    And yeah, the latter two are jazzy but they are also great instrumentals.

    Was listening to Foreplay/Long Time the other day in the car and thinking how great the music of the 70's really was.
