Expresso II is the eighth studio album released under the name Gong and the de facto second album by Pierre Moerlen's Gong. It released in February 1978. Featuring an all-instrumental jazz-driven sound, notable for the prominent use of vibraphone, it has little to do with the psychedelic space rock of Daevid Allen's Gong, even though the two bands share a common history. Although the album was issued by Virgin Records under the "Gong" name for contractual reasons, and the name "Pierre Moerlen's Gong" would not be adopted for a few more months, the lineup involved and the nature of the music are that of the Moerlen-led band.

  • Expresso II är ett musikalbum av Gong, lanserat 1978 på Virgin Records. Albumtiteln kan uppfattas som en anakronism då det i Europa aldrig gavs ut något album med titeln Expresso, däremot blev gruppens förra album Gazeuse! omdöpt till just Expresso för den nordamerikanska marknaden, vilket förklarar titeln Expresso II. Efter detta album kom Pierre Moerlen att döpa om gruppen till Pierre Moerlen's Gong för att särskilja den från den tidigare Daevid Allen-ledda och musikaliskt annorlunda eran av Gong. På albumets första spår "Heavy Tune" medverkar Mick Taylor på elgitarr. (sv)
