Columbia Records Artist Vanessa Quinones better known as Espiritu cut an album called "Always" in 1994. Chris Bangs met with Vanessa and after a productive meeting she invited Chris to contribute producing 3 songs on her album Take My Hand ( which he co-wrote ), Sex, Sin and Sun ( that track should have been in a TV ad )  and Carnaval.

Always was a really nice album with Nellee Hooper producing the superb Manifesto and No Creo Mas. Bangsy's tracks were a bit more 'Jazz Brasil' in style with guest appearances from Mick Talbot on piano and Moog Prodigy, Nigel Price on guitars, Gary Spacey - Foote on flute and Stephen Jefferies on Fender Rhodes.

The album never got put out by Columbia but did well in Japan , well worth checking out!!
