Template:Use dmy dates Template:Album ratings C.C.S. was the second studio album of the British blues and jazz outfit CCS, led by guitarist Alexis Korner. This album is usually called C.C.S. 2 to avoid confusion with the first, eponymous album, even though that title cannot be found anywhere on the record or sleeve.

It included covers of songs by such diverse artists as Led Zeppelin and The Jackson 5. On the UK Official Chart, the album charted at number 23, while the single "Brother" charted at number 25.
