Chick Corea
Dave Brubeck
Duke Ellington (I adore Ivie Anderson's voice!)
John Coltrane
Count Basie
Harry Connick, Jr.
...to name a few.  Obviously, I'm more into the older stuff as opposed to the newer stuff.
Great topic!

Great List. I would like to add Stan Getz ans Clarence Williams.
Jazz is kinda a broad category in my opinion...There's a local band in Oxford called Stoneface Jazz that are pretty good. And a more modern jazz--Diana Krall.
