Here and Now is an album by the Jazztet, led by trumpeter Art Farmer and saxophonist Benny Golson.

[4]: 12  The Jazztet's first three albums had stressed the compositions of one person, but this one had "a diverse program that included contributions by each of the primary soloists and an equal number of standards and jazz tunes from outside the band.

"[4]: 12 "Tonk" was the name of a card game played by its composer, Ray Bryant; it has a "bass-clef piano figure and a foreshortened bridge that takes the melody into a different key".

[4]: 12  Alternative takes that appeared later may have been made with the intention of releasing them as singles, or they may have been part of rehearsals of the tune.

[4]: 13  Moncur does not play on "In Love In Vain", which has "a loose, conversational approach to its statement of the melody", but he composed the final track on the original album, "Sonny's Back", a comment on the return from exile of saxophonist Sonny Rollins.
