Considered one of the top violinists in the jazz field, the late Noel Pointer also established a solid following for himself among soul and funk music lovers thanks to a series of great albums recorded between 1977 and 1993 (one year before his passing at the young age of 39).

Released in 1980 and making its worldwide CD debut with this 2012 reissue, CALLING was the Brooklyn-born musician’s fourth album for United Artists. The LP was a musical departure for Noel, who worked with noted producer/arranger Richard Evans on the project since it included Noel on several tracks on vocals while the choice of material reflected a spiritual approach reflected in several of the tracks including ‘Higher Than Heaven,’ ‘Peace On Earth’ and the title track.

The album’s lone single, ‘As Long As I Know’ features Sherrie Payne (formerly of The Supremes); musicians include famed drummer James Gadson and future Tina Turner musical director, the late Kenny Moore. Critically acclaimed, CALLING reached No. 21 on the U.S. jazz charts and is making its worldwide CD debut with this release by SoulMusic Records alongside Noel’s FEEL IT album (SMCR-5036), both reissued in January 2012.
