One Line, Two Views is an album by Muhal Richard Abrams which was released on the New World label in 1995 and features performances of seven of Abrams' compositions by Abrams, Eddie Allen, Patience Higgins, Marty Ehrlich, Bryan Carrott, Mark Feldman, Tony Cedras, Anne LeBaron, Lindsey Horner, and Reggie Nicholson. The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow states "Pianist/composer extraordinaire Abrams needs no preface for his singular-minded, forward-thinking music, save that this recording might represent its zenith. Jazz contexts, progressive ideals, improv within deft frameworks — it's all here... This is certainly Abrams' shining hour — one of many bright moments for a pivotal American icon".^[2]
