Marzette Watts and Company, also known as Marzette and Company, is the debut album by saxophonist and composer Marzette Watts. It was recorded in December 1966 in New York City, and was released by ESP-Disk in 1968.

John Garratt, writing for PopMatters, stated: "Marzette Watts was caught in the very middle of the civil unrest of 1960s America.... Watts struggled to belong somewhere. The music of Marzette Watts & Company reflects this turmoil and the list of soon-to-be-famous names accompanying him on the album suggests that misery loved company... Half these musicians have passed on, but their 'Backdrop for Urban Revolution' continues to stay in motion, thanks to gut-punching artifacts like this one."
