Neil Young has announced a 50th anniversary edition of his 1975 album Tonight’s the Night.
Due out on November 28th, the limited-edition release contains six bonus tracks, including unreleased original versions of “Lookout Joe” and “Walk On,” both recorded during the 1973 album sessions at S.I.R. in Los Angeles. In particular, “Lookout Joe” replaces the original album version on the 50th anniversary reissue.
The tracklist also contains an unreleased version of “Tonight’s The Night,” as well as bonus tracks “Everybody’s Alone,” “Raised on Robbery” (featuring Joni Mitchell,) and “Speakin’ Out” originally released in Neil Young Archives Vol. II. Also of note is the presence of an early version of “Wonderin’”, recorded during the sessions for Tonight’s the Night, which was previously only to stream on Young’s website. All six of these bonus tracks are being released on vinyl for the first time.
The reissue also includes a newly imagined take of the album’s original artwork.
As Young recently pulled his music from Amazon, calling on his fans to boycott the company and “support your community.” As such, the 50th anniversary edition of Tonight’s the Night will be available via independent record stores and Warner Records’ website.
