I'm amazed at how many people have never heard of Richard Thompson, Geetar Gawd! Old or new, his work is beautiful.
Another favorite is Sam Phillips, the singer, not the producer, though she is married to a producer - T Bone Burnett. Fan Dance is excellent and Classic Records has two of her older works available on 24/96.
Mark Knopfler - Flying to Philadelphia
Catie Curtis - My Shirt looks Good on You
Pearls Before Swine (Tom Rapp) - anything
The BoDeans
Precious Bryant - blues
Otis Taylor - blues
Dread Zeppelin - Un-Led-Ed (a real hoot!)
