Brenner's Offering
Vytas Brenner and his band, Ofrenda, released this lp in 1975. Jayeche was an amazingly progressive record for mid 70s in terms of instrumentation. Vytas is playing his usual array of electric pianos and synthesizers, but there is also a string ensemble in the mix as well as a digital sequencer. Guitarist Pablo Manavello has added guitar synthesizer to his mix of guitars and mandolins, and drummer, Iván Velásquez, is playing moog drums. Jayeche is a mix of Prog/Jazz fusion and Venezuelan percussion. Bassist Carlos Acosta and percussionist brothers, Chu and Nene Quintero, complete Ofrenda.

just curious to know if that is as good as Jayeche
That one is great. If you find a copy don't hesitate. It's 80s and the sound has mellowed a litte. He has a new bassist, Héctor Hernández who adds a bit of funk flavor to the sound. Need to finish ripping the lp so I can post that one. Here's a sample: http://thankscity.com/jams/zeroy/Amuay.mp3.
just want to reiterate how rad this album is... not a bad tune on it.
would love to hear all of the 1983 album... "amuay" has got lots of plays since you posted it a while back. T again Z
Hey Zeroy, would you mind re-uploading this one? I'd really like to give it a listen :)
