Turning Point

When the combustible four-man force of musical nature known as Turning Point took over the Phoenix club scene in the mid-90s, the desert city's nights truly became as steamy as its days.

Drawing on each member's musical and cultural background, Turning Point forged an eclectic sound that mixed progressive jazz with rock, R&B and blues, with touches of Greek music and--paying homage to their home in the Southwest--Latin jazz

Ricontestualizzati con eccelsa raffinatezza e gusto musicale, la strumentazione e i temi marziali dell'800 vengono letteralmente ristrutturati nel segno dell'ottica jazzistica. È stata così compiuta un'operazione discografica intelligente oltre che inusuale, rivolta a collegare ...
