Limited 180 gram audiophile vinyl LP pressing in gatefold sleeve. On Knights Of Fantasy (1979), Eumir Deodato once again concocted his own ineffable brew of fusion and funky disco. Four-to-the-floor beats, funky percussion and heavy synths make for an album that seemingly has an endless groove going. The b-side opens with three-part piece called 'Bachmania', which includes an adaptation of Bach's 'Jesu, Joy Of Man's Desiring', in a very funky way of course. Fun fact: the list of used synths include a slew of analog classic machines like a Fender Rhodes Suitcase 88 Piano, Mini-Moog, ARP Pro-Soloist, ARP Omni, Sequential Circuits Prophet-5, Maxi-Korg, Hohner Clavinet and a Polymoog. Essential jazz funk from the disco era. Space Dust / Sherlock, Shazam, Bachmania a) Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring B) Love Is Blue C) Whistle Bump, Knights of Fantasy, Lovely Lady
