The Music of NOEL POINTER


Violinist Noel Pointer, was born on 26th of December 1954 at Brooklyn, New York, U.S.A. He studied classical violin before he signed with Blue Note as a jazz musician in the early '70s.

His releases of light instrumental pop and fusion also included guest stints by vocalists. Pointer moved to United Artists in 1978, and his Hold On LP had Patti Austin as the featured singer. He later included contributions from the Jones Girls and Patrice Rushen on future releases for UA, and then moved to Liberty in 1981. Pointer recorded with Norman Connors and did sessions for several other artists. He resurfaced in 1993 on a Shanachie date Never Lose Your Heart. ~ Ron Wynn, All Music Guide
