O’s Notes: Jason Anick is a young jazz-fusion violinist that is making a splash. He plays in two different quintets and as a quartet for Tipping Point, his sophomore release as a leader. We liked the spark in the opener “Stomped Out” with Jason trading the lead with Clay Lyons (sax) and Jason Yeager (p). That cool vibe is present throughout the set with Anick strutting his stuff on the cover of “Minor Blues”. There are also passionate selections like “Peace” and “This One’s For You”. Jason wrote five of the eleven selections and selected timeless classic to round out a super session.
