Works Volume 2 is the sixth studio album by Emerson, Lake & Palmer, released on 25 November 1977.^[3] 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.

The remastered 2017 version of the album is expanded to a double-CD by the inclusion of the complete Works Live, an extended version of Emerson, Lake & Palmer in Concert.
