Recommended acoustic recordings

My system is modest but excels with voices, solo instruments, and small ensembles. With that in mind, what Jazz, folk, or classical SACD/high-resolution discs would you recommend as among your favorites?

Lies and Alibis" has edged out "I Am Shelby Lynne" as my favorite, but it is damn good. Just listening to Ry Cooder "Jazz". His 1978 recording is remastered and transferred nicely to cd. Various songs from church pieces to whorehouse jazz done in styles you might hear in pre Louis Armstrong New Orleans. Can't think of where you can hear anything like it, I really love this one.
