Description/Reviews: 

This is the first release on the new Timeless Momentum label, run by Antoine Fafard (Spaced Out). And it’s the best fusion release we’ve heard in a long time, an album that may remind fusion fans why they fell in love with fusion in the first place. Unless you live in Montreal, you may not have heard of Canadian guitarist and composer Jerry De Villiers Jr, a unique player with incredible tone and highly melodic phrasing. Jerry was heavily active in the Montreal jazz scene in the 1990s and was also busy composing, recording, and performing his own music under the project name Turning Point. Due to various circumstances, none of the music he recorded in the studio with Turning Point was ever released on CD. The music on The Turning Point Archives (2014, 76-minutes) consists of seven 1995 studio tracks plus seven pieces recorded live in 1994, basically an LP worth of each. The sound throughout couldn’t be better. On the live tracks, Jerry is supported by a keyboardist, bassist, and drummer. The studio tracks include various collaborators, with Jerry playing some keys in addition to guitar. There is a brass section on two of the studio tracks, sax on three. Half the tracks are in a fusion-tinged, symphonic rock style centered on soaring lead guitar, while half the tracks (more so the live ones) are in a straight fusion style. But it is fusion of the highest caliber, the kind of stuff that energizes fusion aficionados like nothing else can. (Kinesiscd)
