Here's a nomination:
Folksongs and Instrumentals With Guitar (1958) by Elizabeth Cotten
It's a blues/folk album by a woman whose talent wasn't discovered until she was 63 years old. It helped inspire the contemporary folk boom that would happen in the coming decade, and it is an essential listen for any avid fan of the genre. A very unique album...
