***Exuma II*** is the second studio album by [Bahamian folk](/source/Bahamian_folk_music) musician [Exuma](/source/Exuma_(musician)).[3] It was released in 1970 on the [Mercury Records](/source/Mercury_Records) label.[4]

## Reception

In a retrospective review, Richie Unterberger of [AllMusic](/source/AllMusic) wrote that *Exuma II* "is perhaps a little less strange and a little more sedate" than Exuma's prior album, the self-titled *[Exuma](/source/Exuma_(album))* (also released in 1970), "but only a little."[5] Unterberger concluded, "While it might not be quite as striking as [Exuma's] previous album, certainly anyone who likes that debut will like [*Exuma II*] as well (and vice versa)".[5] Mike Jahn of *[The Baltimore Sun](/source/The_Baltimore_Sun)* referred to the track "Damn Fool" as "outstanding".[6]
