Hi, Charles ... nice to see you posting in this thread.
Yep, I have a lot of Bird’s recordings in my collection. Did he ever play the same idea twice? We can listen to the likes of Sonny Stitt and Cannonball Adderley, both greatly influenced by Parker .... and as great as they are, they still ain’t Parker. :-)
Here’s one of my favorites:

I can’t vouch for the sound of the CD as I have it on vinyl. Its one of the more well recorded Parker records.
By the way Charles, do you have any of the Super Sax albums? They did a nice job of transcribing Parker’s ideas onto modern recordings. Its some fun listening ...
