This seems like fast be-bop jazz. If you want to hear "fast and very complicated solos" and a bit more edge, you'll need to check out jazz fusion. If you like this clip in particular, I suggest you get a copy of the Chick Corea Akoustic Band album.

For some stuff with more edge, here's a nice primer on "fast and complicated" -

I would categorize this song as Hard Bop 

You can find a list of Hard Bop musicians at Wikipedia Influential artists in this genre are

  • Miles Davis
  • Art Blakey
  • Horace Silver
  • Clifford Brown

I quite like "post-bop sound", a term used by Andrew Male in his review of Duke's Sweet Honey Bee, originally released in 1966.

here is some more post-bop, hope you like it :)
