Probablemente uno de los discos más desconocidos de Eumir Deodato, y bien viene para seguir completando nuestra colección de buena música brazuca. Eumir Deodato ofrece otra vez una fusión de jazz, disco y música funk con agradables interpretaciones instrumentales basadas en las composiciones de Deodato y una interpretación de "Jesus Joy's of Man's Desiring" de Johann Sebastian Bach, titulada como "Bachmania". Otra entrada cortita y al pie para anunciar que el que lo quiera, lo tiene...
Artista: Eumir Deodato
Álbum: Knights Of Fantasy
Año: 1979
Género: Latin Jazz - Funk
Referencia: Discogs
Nacionalidad: Brasil
Trabajo jazzero y suave, aunque el álbum tiene algunos solos de guitarra asesinos y líneas de bajo con mucho ritmo, con un punto culminante en la pista que da nombre al álbum, "Knights of Fantasy". También hay otros momentos agradables, como "Space Dust" y "Lovely Lady", que tiene un gran sonido suave al estilo de Bob James.
