''A Foreign Affair 2'' is double compilation album released by Danish band Gasolin' in 2002. It contains the English album ''What a Lemon'' on the first disc and ''The Last Jim'' on the second disc. Between 1974 and 1978, Gasolin' released four albums with English lyrics in an attempt to break the international music market, but had little success.

The first album, released in the United States as ''Gasolin','' was renamed ''What a Lemon'' for the English market. The disparity is due to the band releasing a previous album in England named ''Gasolin' ''. All told, Gasolin' released three albums named ''Gasolin''': Their first Danish album, their first British album and their first American album.

''The Last Jim'' (1975) and ''What a Lemon'' (1976) are nearly identical to '' Stakkels Jim '' (1974) and '' Gas 5 '' (1975), respectively. On ''What a Lemon'', "Good Time Charlie" was omitted and replaced by "Rabalderstraede" and "The Last Jim". "Rabalderstraede" is identical to the song "What a Lemon".
