..on this compilation would do nicely for fusion IMHO;
http://www.amazon.com/Return-Seventh-Galaxy-Anthology-Forever/dp/B00000474W/ref=sr_1_9/103-9740804-9524649?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1179492337&sr=1-9
Al DiMeola on guitar, Stanley Clarke bass, Lenny White drums, Chick Corea on piano...tremendous stuff, powerful, soaring. The earlier tracks have Flora Purim on vocals as well.

Vocals...not my forte, but I like the Ella And Louis compilation on Verve, Our Love Is Here To Stay..Sings The Gershwin Songbook.
http://www.amazon.com/Our-Love-Here-Stay-Gershwin/dp/B0000047GL/ref=sr_1_8/103-9740804-9524649?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1179492678&sr=1-8

Look for the ECM label for great sound IMHO. If you like guitar, try Ralph Towner. His duet album A Closer View, with Gary Peacock on bass, is great stuff;

Sax, try Charles Lloyd's The Water Is Wide
http://www.amazon.com/Water-Wide-Charles-Lloyd/dp/B00004VXEZ/ref=sr_1_12/103-9740804-9524649?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1179493046&sr=1-12

Sonny Rollins on sax also, Saxaphone Colossus;

Guitar, Kenny Burrell's magnum opus Midnight Blue is a classic, can't go wrong;
http://www.amazon.com/Midnight-Blue-Kenny-Burrell/dp/B00000I41G/ref=sr_1_1/103-9740804-9524649?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1179493531&sr=1-1

Guitar also, Grant Green's Idle Moments, another classic;
http://www.amazon.com/Idle-Moments-Grant-Green/dp/B00000IL2A/ref=sr_1_1/103-9740804-9524649?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1179493605&sr=1-1
