Neil Young’s album Tonight’s The Night is considered both one of his darkest albums and a masterpiece. Now, Warner/Reprise will release a new 50th Anniversary Edition of this album, complete with six bonus tracks – two of those previously unreleased. The release date is set for November 28, 2025.
Included on the new release are versions of “Lookout Joe” and “Walk On”, both recorded during the original 1973 album sessions at S.I.R. in Los Angeles. “Lookout Joe” replaces the version that was recorded at Young’s Broken Arrow Studio and subsequently included on the original release of Tonight’s The Night.
These versions of “Lookout Joe” and “Tonight’s The Night (Take 3)” have never been released. “Everybody’s Alone”, “Raised On Robbery” (featuring Joni Mitchell) and “Speakin’ Out Jam” appeared on Archives Vol II, while the unreleased version of “Wonderin’’ and “Walk On” from the same sessions have 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.
Tonight’s The Night 50 will be released on vinyl, CD and digitally, with a clear vinyl version available at the Greedy Hand Store and indie retailers.
