    Three different sessions, and the first four tracks are really exceptional. I never get tired of East thirty seconds. And never mind the frustrated commentators.

      Disregard the trash take by that unfortunate philistine below. Tristano’s brilliant and, in 1955, heretofore unparalleled use of overdubbing as well as tape speed manipulation all contribute to a musical and technical achievement.

      No gimmicks here—it’s pure melodic and improvisational mastery with bold innovation that breaks out of the tired jazz traditions of the time.

        technologically brilliant, musically bullshit. what i want to hear from a jazz player is musicianship not childish gimmicks.

          I believe Lennie is the most different piano stylist in his time. Influenced Bill Evans, Horace Silver. Unigue for unison fingering in both hands; simultaneiusly! Known for Odd time Signatures, and generally explorative player.
