Great playing, considering he plays a tenth of the speed Django could...with just 2 fingers!!!!!

@swingingfred I have everything Chet ever recorded, and I know full well that Chet was capable of speed when he wanted to. In fact I could site several recordings where his speed was blinding. He didn't flaunt it. He used it when he felt the tune called for it.
