Apparently, the name "bebop" comes from Charlie Christian's habit of humming along as he played (which you'll also hear Oscar Peterson doing).

Charlie Christian, "Swing to Bop" (1941)

This is an amateur audience recording from Minton's Playhouse, so the recording is rather primitive, while the recorded music most definitely is not.

My bandmate picked this one out to do as part of our pandemic remote videos series.

When Danny was a young man he finished as runner up in the #Championship in , but he’s hell on wheels with a flatpick, too.

He’s doing the main lines in the first tune while I play . I’m playing for the brief break and then most on 42.
