Scott 2 was the second solo album by Scott Walker. The album was released on Philips Records in April 1968, reached #1 and stayed in the charts for 18 weeks.
According to the sleeve notes by Jonathan King, not long after the album had been completed, Walker described it as the "work of a lazy, self-indulgent man." He added, "Now the nonsense must stop, and the serious business must begin."
