Longplay Album – Volume II was the second album by the Dutch soundalike studio group Stars on 45, released on the CNR Records label in The Netherlands in August 1981. In the US the album was retitled Stars On Long Play II, released on Radio Records and credited to 'Stars On'. In the UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand the album was listed as Stars on 45 Volume 2 or Stars on 45 - The Album - Volume 2, credited to Starsound and issued on CBS Records. Just like the first Stars on 45 album Longplay Album – Volume II was also officially released in the Soviet Union and the Eastern Bloc by state-owned label Melodiya, credited to Stars On 45 but under the title Discotheque Stars 2.

The second Stars On 45 single in Europe was entitled "More Stars" and was a five-minute medley of eight hits by ABBA ("Voulez-Vous"/"SOS"/"Bang-A-Boomerang"/"Money Money Money"/"Knowing Me, Knowing You"/"Fernando"/"The Winner Takes It All"/"Super Trouper") coupled with a reworked version of the "Stars On 45 Theme" which became another UK #2 hit and indeed a Top 10 hit single in most parts of Europe. The eleven-minute 12" mix of "More Stars" however opened with another medley which combined excerpts from 60's and 70s hits mainly from the soul, R&B and folk rock genres; The Temptations' "Papa Was a Rolling Stone", Sly & the Family Stone's "Dance to the Music", The Rubettes' "Sugar Baby Love", The Flower Pot Men's "Let's Go to San Francisco", America's "A Horse with No Name", The Mamas & the Papas' "Monday, Monday" and "California Dreaming", Scott McKenzie's "San Francisco (Be Sure to Wear Flowers in Your Hair)", Barry McGuire's "Eve of Destruction", Smokey Robinson & The Miracles' "Tears of a Clown", The Supremes' "Stop! In The Name of Love", Neil Diamond's "Cracklin Rosie", Manfred Mann's "Do Wah Diddy Diddy", The Toys' "A Lover's Concerto", Four Tops' "Reach Out I'll Be There" and finally Simon & Garfunkel's "The Sound of Silence". In the US where ABBA's popularity wasn't on the same scale as in Europe or most other parts of the world at the time, Radio Records instead chose the first part of the medley, starting with "Papa Was A Rolling Stone", and released it as the follow-up to the second Beatles medley, but under the same title; "More Stars". The 12" mix of "More Stars", or "Stars On 45 Volume 2" as it was renamed in the U.K., was the same on both sides of the Atlantic.
