Neil Young - Tonight's The Night (50th Anniversary) CD/2LP
In 1975, Neil Young released "Tonight’s The Night", an album that is widely regarded as one of the masterpieces in his catalog. The album was recorded in 1973, following the major success of his album "Harvest", but it was not released for two more years.
"Tonight’s The Night 50th Anniversary" deluxe limited edition is released on vinyl and CD with a newly expanded tracklisting that includes 6 bonus tracks along with an unreleased original version of Lookout Joe recorded during the original 1973 album sessions at S.I.R. in Los Angeles. It replaces the original released album version that was recorded at Young’s Broken Arrow Studio and subsequently included in "Tonight’s the Night" original release.
Among the bonus tracks there is Walk On, also recorded in the 1973 S.I.R. sessions, and Tonight’s The Night (Take 3) which have both never been released. Everybody’s Alone, Raised on Robbery (featuring Joni Mitchell), and Speakin’ Out Jam appeared in Neil Young Archives Vol II, while the unreleased TTN version of Wonderin’ from the same sessions has only ever been available to stream on NYA. This is the first time all six bonus tracks from the original sessions have been available on vinyl, making this the most cohesive and true version of "Tonight’s The Night".
The original artwork has been creatively reimagined for this limited edition release.
