 A Night in Tunisia by Dizzy Gillespie

One of the most famous live recordings in jazz history, this May 1953 concert from Toronto brought together five of bebop’s greatest figures in alto saxophonist Charlie Parker (credited here as “Charlie Chan” in a purposely transparent attempt to sidestep Parker’s exclusive recording arrangement with another record company), trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie, pianist Bud Powell, drummer Max Roach, and bassist Charles Mingus.
