As far as Knepper is concerned, I like A Swinging Introduction to Jimmy 
Knepper, with Gene Quill. Bill Evans, Danny Richmond, just to mention a 
few players on the album.
There is also he and Pepper Adams on Pepper Knepper Quintet that has 
some nice bebop playing and there is Jimmy Knepper w/Clifford Jordon on 
a thing called Dream Dancing.  I have those in my collection.
If you aren't familiar with Roy Williams, locate Classic Concert with 
the Alex Welsh Band, Williams does an unbelievable solo on Tangerine, 
takes a cadenza on the tune and then repeats it live as an encore.  I 
have heard him on some rather recent recordings with one of the 
Allred's that is also a gas!.
Hope this helps,
later,
