Acappella/Vocal Jazz/Gospel recommendations?

Ditto on the Ben Harper CD - highly recommended. Also check out the Persuasions CDs. Live in the Whispering Gallery and the latest SACD in which they do covers of Beatles' songs are probably the best recorded, but I am a big fan of all of their music.

There is also a CD from a PBS show that Spike Lee produced called Doin' it A Capella or something to that effect. Persuasions, Mint Juleps, Take 6, Rockapella, and Ladysmith Black Mambazo are featured.

Alison Krauss + Union Station - Down to the River to Pray on their Live CD.

Trio by Linda Ronstadt, Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris

The ARC Choir produced by Mapleshade. An Acappella gospel CD.

This is more folk-blugrass but it's GREAT. Sugar Hill's "Sacred Voices, an acappella gospel collection" I've really enjoyed this over the years and it's ALL accapella.

If you can find it, get the Fairfield Four "Standing in the Safety Zone" CD. Best acapella vocals I've heard on digital.
