Skylab II (album)
''Skylab II'' is a live album by the Brazilian musician Rogério Skylab, the second in his series of ten eponymous, numbered albums. His first ever live album, it was self-released in 2000 and recorded during a gig at the Hipódromo Up in Rio de Janeiro in the same year. Löis Lancaster, vocalist of now-defunct experimental rock band Zumbi do Mato (one of Skylab's greatest influences), was a guest musician on the album, providing additional vocals for the track "Samba". Nine years later, Lancaster would return for ''Skylab IX''. The album is considered one of Skylab's finest by fans and critics alike, and the songs "Convento das Carmelitas" and "Carrocinha de Cachorro-Quente" eventually became set list regulars after appearing here in recorded form for the first time. A studio re-recording of "Cu e Boca" would appear six years later on ''Skylab VI''; afterwards, "Ato Falho" and "Música Suave" were re-recorded for ''Caos e Cosmos, Vol. 2'' in 2022.
