Limited edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on yellow & green marbled 180-gram audiophile vinyl. Producer and arranger Deodato is definitely not a one-trick pony. Before CTI decided to give him the spotlight, he had already worked with some of the best in the business; Frank Sinatra, Antonio Carlos Jobim, and Wes Montgomery. The Grammy Award winning signature track, a Latin-fused arrangement of the theme from 2001: A Space Oddisey, propelled prelude to the top of the charts, making it the best-selling record of CTI's catalogue. But the other songs can hold their own as well. Deodato's arrangements are lush, his Rhodes playing is light, elegant, and funky. Prelude is a jewel from the CTI-treasury.
