Boy is that great stuff.  "Another You" swings really hard, especially remarkable given the very fast tempo. The Hall and Oates thing is amazing for the speed and precision of the lines too, especially that one that just goes up and up.

This is one guy who started out great and got better.  Wish I'd known about these performances when I wrote "Jazz Harp."
