The whole album sounds great Wish it was available on vinyl

In Jazz, the life-changers were Charlie Parker Vol II, a cheap compilation that happened to have a pretty great selection; The Shape Of Jazz To Come by Ornette; Selflessness by Coltrane, a posthumous mix that includes the great My Favorite Things from Newport 1963; Miles Davis - Live-Evil; Jackie McLean's Demons Dance; and Sonny Rollins' Our Man In Jazz. Those are the ones that got me going. More recent revelations include Cecil Taylor's 2 T's For A Lovely T, and Music Improvisation Company on ECM.
In the wider scheme of things: Jimi Hendrix - Are You Experienced; Capt. Beefheart - Trout Mask Replica; Olivier Messiaen - Catalogue D'Oiseaux; Anton Webern - The Complete Music (1957); Richard Wagner - Der Ring Des Nibelungen.
I grew up in the Middle East to a music family that was involved with Ziad Rahbani and Fairuz, here's my recommendation:

He's wearing a hat, it has guitar, has some long songs, and has some cursive on the cover, and Montreux might sound a little tropical.
Is that it?

I did an album a few years ago with Terell, really nice dude, so I would go see him!

I think what's going on here is that this riff, and the associated rhythm, is a pretty common Swing staple.
Knowing nothing about Swing myself, it sounded very unique, but it looks like it's not nearly as unique as I thought. I'm also not certain whether the first one is really a rip-off: Apparently, Electro-Swing is a thing, and it all does sound very familiar.
Even Shazam is confused: I also got "Charlie Paperboy" occasionally, which didn't sound like what I was looking for. But after several successive tries, it brought up "Gimme Some Skin" by "Hollywood Big Band Alumni", which is really close to both of them, and is by far the closest to what I was looking for:
Soundcloud (blocked in my country)
Amazon Music
Apple Music
So no, "Charlie Paperboy" wasn't the one I was looking for either (it also doesn't feature that exact riff from the first 5 notes, while "Gimme Some Skin" does). The one I remember is much "cleaner" than any of these though: Just a trumpet (or another brass instrument), percussion, possibly a piano.
Thanks for your perseverance though! :)
Nope. Don't like it.
A version by the Girls From Mars I think is the most tolerable for me.
Pretty sure it was around well before then:

I've been listening on Google Play Music, here,
But i saw it on amazon here and you can get it on Spotify here
and for future uses, all i did was google "Matt Chamberlain Prometheus Risen" and then the service i wanted and I got the result i was looking for each time.

This song (Amazon, YouTube) would provide a fitting soundtrack.
It can be had https://www.amazon.com/Bird-Time-1940-1947-Charlie-Parker/dp/B014BUDNWG/ref=tmm_msc_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=
This recording of "Sing, Sing, Sing" is purportedly by Benny Goodman, but I don't believe it. It sounds way too good for a recording from 1938. It is in stereo and sounds digitally recorded to me for lack of tape hiss and dynamic range. Also, the original according to Wikipedia was 8:11 while this one clocks in at 5:23.
In addition, Amazon also has this recording tagged as Benny Goodman! This really has me baffled, I want to know what band this actually is!
FYI: I believe this is the actual 1938 recording. The other recording sounds very similar to the original, but different.
