I'm very interested in the history and development of jazz.  The sources that I read
seem to lead toward the following three recordings--prior to 1940---as having the
greatest IMPACT to influence the musicans that heard them.  Namely---

1-"West End Blues" -- Louis Armstrong 
2-"Singin' the Blues"--Trumbauer & Beiderbecke
3-"Body and Soul"--Coleman Hawkins

Anyone care to add to this list?  Remember--IMPACT on MUSICIANS is the
point of this---not favorite recordings.  And maybe a comment as to how it made
an impact.
