[Harp-L] Toota at his most be-boppiest?



With Spotify and all that jazz it´s become interesting to search through some artists recorded output. I´m now trying to find something from Toots T when he played more radical bebop -- and that, I guess, would be in the 50´s? 

  He´s self-described (interview) as at some point in his younger days a confirmed Charlie Parker epigon (legions of them of course) but I have a bit of a hard time finding stuff with that orientation from him.
  He is in no way unknown to me (also a very familiar presence in Swedish television back in the day)-- but what I own is mostly from the 60´s and 70´s. (Parenthetically, I almost never play the chromatic but whenever I´m out playing diatonic there´s always some bozoo coming up to me and saying, "Hey Toots Thielemans ...!" and that is a compliment, so i don´t correct them, but it´s only based on the fact, as far as I can see, that I use all three octaves on the harp -- and that Toots is a household name here, not sure if it´s the same in the US?)
