Two significant Jerry De Villiers Jr. albums have just been officially released on I-Tunes and Amazon, check out the samples. About time someone cracked the code and opened the vault...
Fusion fans familiar with Jerry's significant contributions with Alain Caron, James Gelfand... have been waiting for this for a while. Me being one of them... Jerry's band "Turning Point" was very hot in the Montreal jazz scene in the late 80's, early 90's... They used to play at "L'Air Du Temps" a lot... It no longer exists but that venue was THE place to go if you wanted to see world class level musicianship and/or see well known jazz greats perform.

A rare live video of Jerry's Turning Point in Trio format. Mid 90s Montreal Drum Fest... The dude burns starting at 6:45.. Magella's solid in this context too...
