Tonight's the night is the eighth album by Neil Young and released under the Reprise label.
The music is country rock with a dark, raw and offhand recording style.
This album is his "darkest album"-pains over the death of his friends Danny Whitten and Bruce Berry and filled with liner notes.
From RollingStone.com review by Dave Marsh: "There is no sense of retreat, no apology, no excuses offered and no quarter given. If anything, these are the old ideas with a new sense of aggressiveness. The jitteriness of the music, its sloppy, unarranged (but decidedly structured) feeling is clearly calculated.
My fave song is "Tonight 's the night"
