Turning Point - Club Pizazz, Philadelphia PA 1989



Since yesterday's entry was a video from the Turning Point reunion in 1994, I thought it would be cool to post this video from 1989. It's from Club Pizazz in Philadelphia PA, January 1989. Thanks to Jeremy Dean for posting this and giving me a copy of the full set. At some point I'd like to put a few more songs from this show up. I think this really represents Turning Point at their best. The demo had been released, the 7" on High Impact had yet to be released, they were playing as a five piece with Steve on second guitar and to top it off, they played this show with another one of New Jersey's finest, Release. On top of everything, Club Pizazz was an excellent club, one of the best places I ever saw a show at. Perfect stage for stage diving and when you watch this video you'll see it was used for just that. Good stuff.

i love the subtle trace of suburban wigger mosh that creeps out for a second around 4:40 - you can tell TP had a slight interest in going raw dealish before swaying towards ignition and embrace a year or so later. i think they made the better choice.
