Right Now! (Mel Tormé album)
Right Now! is a 1966 studio album by Mel Tormé. Columbia followed up Tormé's 1965 album of standards with "an obvious bid to sell records by putting Tormé's voice on pre-sold hits of the mid-'60s." "The Velvet Fog's" descent on contemporary middle-of-the-road top-40 melodies from Paul Simon and the Bacharach-David catalogue leads some to emphasize the commercialism of the project and file this period of Tormé's career in the lounge music section of records stores, as evidenced by his appearances on compilations like the Ultra Lounge series. However, music critic Will Friedwald makes a strong case that the work of Tormé and arranger Mort Garson elevated the project above "an album of straight "covers"."
In 1997, Right Now! was treated to a CD reissue, with previously unreleased bonus tracks and liners notes.
Track listing
Right Now! (Little Richard album)
Right Now! is one of Little Richard's lesser-known albums, released without much publicity on the United Records label. Despite this, the songs contained some of Richard's stronger material from his 70s period, including "Chain Chain Chain", more commonly known under the title "Chain of Fools."
History
Right Now! was recorded in January 1973 possibly in Muscle Shoals Sound Studio, Alabama, and issued with no publicity as a low-budget LP. Richard himself recalled that: We were about to start a tour and we needed some money. So Robert "Bumps" Blackwell and me got a deal for one album with an advance of ten thousand dollars from Kent Modern. We went into the studio and did it in one night. I did material we had worked out together. I prefer recording at night, my voice is in better shape then.

Right Now (Atomic Kitten album)
Right Now is the debut studio album by English girl group Atomic Kitten released originally on 23 October 2000 featuring original member Kerry Katona, following the departure of Katona the album was re-released on 6 August 2001 featuring vocals from Jenny Frost and the singles "You Are" and "Eternal Flame" with additional new tracks featured on the album. The first release of the album originally peaked at number 39, putting the group at risk of being dropped by the record label; the second release peaked at number 1.
Background
When Kerry Katona left the band she was replaced by Jenny Frost. At the same time "Whole Again" was climbing up the charts, so it was decided to shoot a new video. After the success of "Whole Again", the album was remastered and re-released with Jenny Frost. The album therefore made two appearances in the charts, with the first appearance being a moderate success and the second appearance going to number one with 47,000 copies sold in its first week of release. During every subsequently released single, the album re-entered the top 40 and even re-entered during the 2002 tour. Atomic Kitten had re-released Right Now to feature the vocals of Frost and add the new tracks "Eternal Flame", "You Are" and "Tomorrow and Tonight". "Cradle" and "Follow Me" kept the vocals of Katona, as did several other tracks including "See Ya" and "I Want Your Love", but the latter two were labeled bonus tracks and shifted to the end of the album. "Whole Again" and "Right Now" were re-recorded for the multi-platinum album.
