Bluegrass Album, Vol. 2 is an follow-up album by bluegrass supergroup, Bluegrass Album Band, released in 1982. As all the members already had their own duties in their groups, they originally intended to release only one album and disband. However, they continued with this volume plus four more and set the standards of the bluegrass music on a very high level.^[1][2]
