Lennie Tristano's solo on Line Up (1956)

Lennie Tristano's solo on Line Up, from his 1956 album Tristano, with drum n' bass left hand just because. Tristano actually recorded this slower (there's debate about how much) and sped it up for the final result. It's a miracle of rhythmic and harmonic displacement, very innovative at the time. Line Up, of course, is just Lennie soloing over the changes to All of Me, in Ab.
