Here and Now is a studio album released by Ike Turner & the Kings of Rhythm on IKON Records in 2001. This is Turner's first solo album since Bad Dreams in 1973, when he was still the bandleader of the Ike & Tina Turner Revue. The album earned Grammy Award nomination in the category of Best Traditional Blues Album
Critical reception
Reviewing the album for Rolling Stone, Robert Christgau wrote: "Though his typically expert band hits the groove on all cylinders, his raspy vocal could use an oil change...Ike can still get it up, definitely. But how much he enjoys it isn't as clear as it should be."
Reviewing the album for The Austin Chronicle, Jay Trachtenberg wrote: He obviously brings a lot to the table, and fortunately Turner shares the bounty with us on this rock-solid offering. Immediately apparent is how well he integrates the traditional delta roots of his Clarksdale salad days with the funkier, uptown sounds of contemporary blues on tunes like "You Can't Winnum' All," "Gave You What You Wanted," and "I Need A-Nuddin'."
Awards and nominations
Here and Now was nominated for two W.C. Handy Awards from the Blues Foundation, winning one for Comeback Album of the Year in 2002. The album was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Traditional Blues Album at the 44th Annual Grammy Awards.
