Keystone Bop Vol. 2: Friday & Saturday is a live album by jazz musicians Freddie Hubbard, Joe Henderson & Bobby Hutcherson recorded in November 1981 and released on the Prestige label in 1996. The Allmusic review by Rick Anderson states "if you're expecting tight, hard-driving conventional bop, you'll be disappointed. These renditions average out to over 17 minutes each, with all the discursive extravagance that treatment implies. But that's not all bad, by any means... But it's hard not to think that offering more, briefer tunes wouldn't have made these performances a bit more interesting and fun overall. Still, fans won't be disappointed".[1]
