Right Now! is a studio album by the American noise rock band Pussy Galore, released in 1987 through Caroline Records.[7][8][9]

Critical reception

Trouser Press wrote that the album "brings Pussy Galore into the realm of artistic consideration but reveals them as a fairly bad noise band."[1] The Spin Alternative Record Guide called Right Now! the band's "finest bulldozer ride through the album format."[6]
