7	Bop Lives! (2003) more music like this by Various Artists When bebop came along in the mid-'40s, the style encountered more than its share of hostility; some swing and Dixieland musicians had difficulty comprehending the innovations of Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Bud Powell, and Thelonious Monk.

11 view cover	From Cool to Bop: The Anthology (2002) more music like this by Miles Davis The late '40s were a very productive time for Miles Davis, who was still in Charlie Parker's employ when, in 1947, he started recording as a leader.
