Good lists, guys. I'll include another "baker's dozen" that deserve wider recognition (unfortunately, about half of them are now deceased):
1. Roland Hanna
2. Tommy Flanagan
3. Michel Petrucciani
4. Jimmy Rowles
5. Erroll Garner
6. Marian McPartland
7. Chucho Valdez
8. Michel Camilo
9. John Hicks
10. Barry Harris
11. Cedar Walton
12. Kenny Drew
13. Gene Harris
Here's another one, sparked by seeing the name Kenny Drew - Kenny Drew, Jr. (the son) has a phenomenal technique and plays interesting material.
Marcus Roberts
Here's one you might not expect--one of my personal "under appreciated" which is Chick Corea. I never really appreciated his brilliance until he did the Mozart Sessions.
