(1996)|__NOTOC__"You? me? us?" is an album Richard Thompson released in 1996. It was Thompson's 4th album for Capitol Records, his fifth with Mitchell Froom producing and his second to be nominated for a Grammy.

The album is split into two discs. Disc one, "Voltage Enhanced", is recorded with a band and is largely electric. Disc two, "Nude" is largely acoustic with just violin or Danny Thompson's double bass for accompaniment. Two songs, "Razor Dance" and "Hide It Away", are included on both discs.

Thompson's son from his first marriage (to Linda Thompson) Teddy sings backing vocals on the "Voltage Enhanced" disc.

The songs on "you? me? us?" are notable for metrical complexity and richness of lyric - and for Thompson's guitar work. His acoustic guitar playing is highlighted on the "Nude" disc. His electric playing is to the fore on the "Put It There Pal" and "Bank Vault In Heaven" on the "Voltage Enhanced" disc.
