Indeed, a drum solo often risks disrupting the flow. As would have been true in this particular case, IMO.

WOW what a song, just fantastic! what the name of the song??

It's fast, all right. Try "Oscar Peterson Cubano Chant" (trio version with Ray Brown and Ed Thigpen), tho, you may find that one even faster, altho the speed is not sustained throughout.

Dynamite performance. And with an arrangement and sound that in places calls to mind "the echoes of an era" for the Stan Kenton bands.

By far the fastest jazz song I have ever heard. I fell in love with it last year.

It could be construed that a conductor organizes all of the charts, players, and compositions besides keeping and setting the tempo(s)...by the way, that's what dizzy is doing on this song (one he wrote) besides playing the signature solo. I think this must qualify/quantify him in some way as NOT stoopid.
