Lots of fabulous suggestions. I will add two that I did not see here....
Billy Taylor - he’s my favorite. The only word I can use to describe his playing is, well, “happy”... “A Touch of Taylor” would be a good place to start.
Mary Lou Williams ... one of the most influential jazz pianists that gets overlooked in conversations like this. Her conception is fabulous. Check out “Live at the Cookery”
