Share some under appreciated jazz album titles

I’ve been on a journey to discover more older jazz albums deeper down the catalog that share two traits; I like/love the music and the recording shines, quite possibly unexpectedly. By that I mean, I probably have a bias that leads me expect recordings from the fifties and sixties to be less detailed or “audiophile” than more recent recordings. I’m finding this bias to be truly misguided to say the least. 
Please share some of your favorite lesser known jazz gems with both traits. To roll the ball…  Dave Brubeck “In Time”, Johnny Hodges “Not So Dukish” and “Gerry Mulligan Meets Johnny Hodges”  

Yes, I’ve been on a Johnny Hodges kick lately 

happy listening everyone

 What is the probability that a whole thread was mostly made of pretentious posters versus the dude  mental state insinuating it ?

I bet  for the thread quality state...."little man" ....

Jarrett & DeJohnette…

Ruta and Daitya.  An ECM gem with great recorded drum sound.

Yuri Honig Trio…Star Tracks. Another gem for dynamics, vivid sax sound and drum set recording. 
Mahavishnu Orchestra…Apocalypse.
