Cobra: John Zorn's Game Pieces Volume 2 is a performance of John Zorn's improvisational game piece, Cobra. The piece had been released in three previous versions on HatHut (Cobra (1985)), Knitting Factory (John Zorn's Cobra: Live at the Knitting Factory (1992)), and Avant (John Zorn's Cobra: Tokyo Operations '94 (1994)) but this is the first release on Zorn's own label Tzadik Records.

The Allmusic review by Steve Loewy awarded the album 4 stars stating "Cobra is a fun-filled, mystical, blindfolded ride down a dark alley that circles back every few yards... Almost like a Talmudic tapestry, the intricate complexities are in full flower here, with constantly changing snippets, twisted sounds, swirls of ornate and not-so-ornate clusters, and shimmering beauty".
