Elizabeth Murray.
You forgot the great Joel Dorn.
I know, I hadnt heard of him either- til I read the obit his son wrote-

Of course, once I thought about it, I realized I had probably 30 or 40 albums he produced over the years.
From Roberta Flack to Dr. John, Bette Midler to the Neville Brothers, the Allman Brothers to Keith Jarret, he made a lot of music possible.
Never mind all those fatuous pencilnecks, pour one out for THE RAVEN.
Well now of all the kinds of year end lists to find out there I’d say this one tops them all.
Useful list - I hadn’t realised Kitaj had popped his clogs
