I think you mean Jay McShann who employed Charlie Parker in or around 
1941.Diz
had done
some dates with Les Hite on Hit.I remember Hite's recording of "Jersey 
Bounce"
from 1942.

To my ears, first bop solo played Hilton Jefferson or Glyn Paque (King
Oliver's Band) Dec. 30, 1929.

First rate alto solo, ahead of its time for about ten years.
