Grease 2 (soundtrack)
Grease 2: Original Soundtrack Recording is the original motion picture soundtrack for the 1982 film Grease 2 starring Maxwell Caulfield and Michelle Pfeiffer. It was originally released by RSO Records.
Like the film, the soundtrack failed to match the commercial success of its predecessor. The album peaked at #71 on the Billboard album chart.[1] The lead single, "Back to School Again" by the Four Tops, peaked at #71 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the U.S. and at #62 on the UK Singles Chart.

Personnel
Reception
Billboard magazine listed the album among its "Top Album Picks", meaning that the album was predicted to reach the top half of the album chart. Comparing the soundtrack to that of the first film, the Billboard reviewer wrote, "The soundtrack is a similar mix of peppy party tunes ('Who's That Guy' recalls 'Summer Nights') and pretty ballads ('We'll Be Together' has some of the AC appeal of 'Hopelessly Devoted to You')." However, the reviewer also commented, "Don't hold your breath waiting for 'Grease 3.'"[2]
