Whatever you do, do NOT watch Garzey's Wing unless you're the type who can enjoy something "so bad it's hilarious." If you're not, it'll just be so bad it's bad. Escaflowne has a really intriguing first half before it reaches a disappointing second half, but it's at least worth watching once. Tokyo Babylon is connected to X, so if you watch one of them, while you don't need to watch one to understand the other, it'd probably be better to watch the other. Golden Boy is an example of shameless fanservice done right, and to hilarious effect. And the six episodes ARE the OVA. There was no actual series, although a manga goes well past the six episodes of the series (not sure if it's still ongoing).
Ninja Scroll is one of those "should see it at least once" rite of passage anime of 90s past (a lot of the ones in your list are).
I really enjoyed Samurai X: Trust and Betrayal. It's basically the backstory of Kenshin from Rurouni Kenshin, only with a lot more blood than the actual show and some really nice visuals. And of course, Fist of the North Star is a classic.
I can't tell you WHAT to watch first. Just don't let it be Garzey's Wing.

Hellsing Ultimate if you can handle the blood-crazed maniacs that are a dime a dozen.
It has an awesome abridged series in the making, as well.

Fist of the North Star
Nobody said Hokuto no Ken yet.
What the fuck is wrong with you nation.
Hokuto no Ken is one of the anime greats of all damn time.

Genocyber
M.D. Geist
Oh wow, you've got a decent amount of good old school stuff there. The two I quoted, while very shallow in story are both pretty awesome. Gorey as hell, but it's like watching a bad action movie that's actually good.
Genocyber especially, it still makes my skin crawl.

Boobs are awesome. :bath:
And gay men can like boobs too.
(The gene that helps with female breast growth also helps with male breast growth too... Just some food for thought.) :blush:
