Lightnin' and Co. is an album by blues musician Lightnin' Hopkins recorded in Texas in 1962 and released on the Bluesville label. The album was reissued as a double LP compilation with additional tracks from the sessions as How Many More Years I Got in 1981 on Fantasy Records.
AllMusic reviewer Nathan Bush stated: "The players here are extremely loose, betraying a casual interest in the task at hand. They sound like a group of borrowed session men, but were in fact a small combo familiar both with each other and Hopkins himself. ... Hopkins was apparently reluctant to do second takes, however, and these recordings show it. ... the performances hardly approach the level of Hopkins' solo sides from the period, let alone his best work".
The Penguin Guide to Blues Recordings said the album "break[s] away from the guitar-only format and on several tracks call in friends like Pickens (playing on what would be his last session)".
