OCEAN 2 - THE ANSWER

Of course it's just my personal opinion, but I think that this release does not deserve the title Ocean 2. To me, it's rather Destination Zero than Ocean Two. Though the album (as some musical critics say) HAS ITS MOMENTS (what a nice formulation...), musically it cannot even be compared to Ocean. It sounds like some very powerful (in comparison to Destination) hypothetic predecessor to Destination, following the same musical direction but much more inspired. Well, like Pink Floyd's The Final Cut is sometimes considered the 'third disc of The Wall'... Unfortunately, Destination was released 6 years before Ocean 2 and had no predecessors (the previous album, Ra, is totally different stylistically), so my personal idea of Ocean 2 is purely speculative.
