The video of this in the archive blows me away. I watch it every time I come to the site. I've never heard anyone play this fast but still give you time to hear perfectly well what's happening to the music; and it is a great piece of music. I find it truly inspiring.
Anyone got a transcription? I'll have a couple of hours free over the weekend. I might be able to knock out a version.

I think he's highly underrated. He seems to have been the pioneer in the that "ultra-shred" style that the Rosenbergs seemed to popularize. Also, he was doing a lot of the now-standard modern jazz covers in gypsy jazz style before anyone else.
