Whale Meat Again is the second studio album by the British musician Jim Capaldi, released by Island Records in 1974. Like his first solo album, it failed commercially in his native United Kingdom but did better in the United States. With help from the opening track, "It's All Right", which spent seven weeks in the Billboard Hot 100 and peaked at number 55, the album reached number 191 in the Billboard 200.
Allmusic's retrospective review commented that the album was more focused on mood than Capaldi's debut, with longer songs built on soulful grooves.
All tracks composed by Jim Capaldi except where indicated.
Two additional tracks were recorded in the same sessions. The first, an acoustic version of "Whale Meat Again", was released only on the B-side of the single "It's All Up to You" (from the album Short Cut Draw Blood). The second, "You & Me", was eventually released on the compilation album Koss. Capaldi also re-recorded "You & Me" with partially different lyrics and a new title, "The Contender", for his album of the same name.
