Neil Young to issue 50th Tonight's the Night with SIR bonus content
Neil Young will release a 50th anniversary edition of his album Tonight's the Night on November 28, the musician announced, unveiling a reissue that restores previously unheard material from the record's original 1973 sessions at S.I.R. Studios in Los Angeles. The package, available on vinyl, CD and digital formats, includes six bonus tracks drawn from those sessions, three of which have never been released on any format until now.
The reissue inserts a previously unreleased 1973 studio version of Lookout Joe into the album sequence in place of the version that had been recorded at Young's Broken Arrow studio and appeared on the original release. Also newly issued are a 1973 take of Walk On and an alternate take of the title track Tonight's the Night. The additional bonus material comprises Everybody's Alone, Raised on Robbery featuring Joni Mitchell, and a Speakin Out Jam; those three have appeared previously on Neil Young Archives Vol. II. An early version of Wonderin, which until now was available only for streaming on Young's archival website, is also included. All six bonus tracks will be released on vinyl for the first time.
