Forever, for Always, for Luther Volume II, released on November 21, 2006 by Rendezvous Entertainment, is a smooth jazz various artists tribute album, with ten popular songs written by Luther Vandross. The album was produced by Rex Rideout and Bud Harner, as a follow-up to their earlier GRP Records tribute album, Forever, For Always, For Luther.[1]

Rideout had co-authored songs and contributed arrangements and played keyboards on Luther's final three albums.

Saxophonist Dave Koz, who had performed on the first album, and who had founded Rendezvous Entertainment a few years earlier, released the 2006 follow-up on his own Rendezvous label. Dave Koz played on all the featured Luther Vandross tracks, which were recorded by various smooth jazz artists.[2]
