Lenny White's "Venusian Summer" is a reissue of a 1975 album by this superb jazz drummer, assisted by great guitarists such as Al Di Meola, Larry Coryell, Ray Gomez and Doug Rodrigues, along with keyboard players including Jimmy Smith and Larry Young. Six tracks total mark this classic mid '70s fusion album, including "Chicken Fried Steak" and "Prince Of The Sea", the latter which features Di Meola and Coryell cuttin' heads. A drummer-led, guitarist-fueled instrumental fusion must-have.Tracks

Heaploads of thanks!!! To me this record is the one, of Lenny's early works, which most clearly shows his roots in Miles' Bitches Brew era. You could also call it his most "Herbie Hancockesque" in maybe a Mwandishi/Sextant sort of way.
It also clearly foreshadows his Astral Pirates recording by using melodic themes which were then further elaborated on with the "Pirates" release'.
I love the psycho/manic funk of Away Go Troubles Down the Drain. A piece which was WAY ahead of it's time.
