Works Volume 2
1977 studio album by Emerson, Lake & Palmer / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For other uses, see Works.
Works Volume 2 is the sixth studio album by Emerson, Lake & Palmer, released on 25 November 1977.[2] Unlike Works Volume 1 (which consisted of three solo sides and one ensemble side), Works Volume 2 was a single album compilation of leftover tracks from other album sessions, similar to the Who's Odds & Sods or Led Zeppelin's Coda. While many derided the album for its apparent lack of focus, others praised it for showing a different side of the band than usual, with blues, bluegrass and jazz being very prominent as musical genres in this recording.
