The Bendix G15 (introduced in 1956) had ALGO, their variant of Algol. Not sure when this was available, but likely after 1958 or so. I think it was the only high level language available on that computer.Running anything like Algol on a machine with drum memory seems a bit optimistic!
There was an ALGOL compiler for the Z22 released in 1958. As you all know, the Z22 was a tube-based magnetic drum computer from 1955.
