A Peleja do Diabo com o Dono do Céu (also known as Zé Ramalho II) is the second solo album by Brazilian musician Zé Ramalho. It was released in 1979 and featured one of his greatest hits, Admirável Gado Novo (which gained further popularity when it was used much later, in 1996, as the opening theme for the telenovela O Rei do Gado).

Reception

The AllMusic review by Alvaro Neder awarded the album 4 and a half stars stating "More open to pop culture than his predecessors, he brings in this release some of his biggest hits such as "Admirável Gado Novo" and "Frevo mulher" in which northeastern folkloric rhythms/melodies/instruments coexist with contemporary grooves and musical treatments. But it never slips to the muddy trail of easy commercial cliché.".[1]
