Deodato 2

Deodato's first album for CTI, Prelude, established him as an expert in fusion music with its tight and groovy cover of "Thus Spake Zarathustra," the theme from Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey. On 2, the Brazilian composer and arranger once again delves into the world of funky fusion, producing a more cohesive record than its predecessor. The album finishes with "Skyscrapers," a energetic jazz-rock track featuring dueling keyboard and guitar melodies that shake the sonic atmosphere.
