Oh ya, this is also the riff used by the "Champs" (featuring a young Seals & Croft) in 1958 for their tune "Tequila"

Diz often referred to popular songs and classical music with his solos.

That sounds more like a quote to me, so I think it's the other way around, especially looking at the dates. This is 59, and you're right in that 'tequila' came out in 58. And he doesn't use this same melodic piece in other versions of the tune.

Wild drumming! This song was was apparently the inspiration for Bobby Parker's guitar riff in "Watch Your Step", which in turn was the inspiration for the riffs in Sonnie Boy Williamson's "One Way Out" (covered by the Allman Brothers with very similar drumming to this video); the Beatles "I Feel Fine"; & Led Zep "Moby Dick".

It's amazing how jazz inspires so many kinds of music.
