Album Description:

 David Bowie's 1984 album Tonight was a commercial success, reaching number 2 on the Billboard 200 chart in the United States. However, it was not without its critics, who felt that the album was a disappointment after the success of his previous album, "Let's Dance"".

One of the main criticisms of Tonight was that it was too slick and polished. The album was produced by Nile Rodgers, who had also produced Let's Dance, and the sound of Tonight is very similar to that of Let's Dance. However, some critics felt that the album lacked the edge and experimentation of Let's Dance.

Another criticism of Tonight was that the songs were not as strong as those on Let's Dance. The album features a number of covers, including "Loving the Alien" (originally by T. Rex) and "Tonight" (originally by Iggy Pop). While these covers are well-performed, they do not add anything new to the original songs.

Despite the criticisms, Tonight is still an enjoyable album. The songs are catchy and the production is slick. However, it is not without its flaws, and it is clear that Bowie was not at his creative peak when he made this album.

The 12" Vinyl LP ALbum of Tonight was pressed using DMM, or Direct Metal Mastering. This is a process that uses a laser to cut the master disc directly from the original analog recording. This results in a much higher quality sound than traditional vinyl pressings, which are made from metal stampers that are created from the original analog recording.

The DMM pressing of Tonight is a must-have for any fan of David Bowie or vinyl enthusiasts. The sound quality is simply superb, and it is a great way to experience this classic album.

DAVID BOWIE - Vinyl Discography and Biography

David Bowie Biography

  David Bowie, born David Robert Jones, was a British singer, songwriter, and actor who is widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in the history of popular music. With a career that spanned over five decades, Bowie continuously reinvented himself, pushing the boundaries of musical genres and styles.

  Bowie was born in 1947, in Brixton, London, England. As a child, he showed an interest in music and began playing the saxophone at a young age. He later learned to play the guitar, piano, and other instruments, and began performing in bands as a teenager.

  In 1969, Bowie released his first hit single, "Space Oddity," which tells the story of an astronaut named Major Tom who becomes lost in space. The song became an instant classic and launched Bowie's career as a solo artist. Over the next few years, Bowie released a series of albums that showcased his ability to blend rock, pop, and other musical styles into a unique and innovative sound.

  In the mid-1970s, Bowie began to experiment with theatricality and gender ambiguity, adopting the persona of Ziggy Stardust, a flamboyant androgynous rock star. This period of his career, which included the albums "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars" and "Aladdin Sane," cemented Bowie's reputation as a visionary artist who was unafraid to take risks and push boundaries.

  Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, Bowie continued to innovate, incorporating elements of electronic and dance music into his sound. He collaborated with other artists, including Queen, Tina Turner, and Mick Jagger, and released a string of hit albums and singles, including "Let's Dance," "Modern Love," and "Under Pressure."

  In addition to his music, Bowie was also an accomplished actor, appearing in films such as "The Man Who Fell to Earth," "Labyrinth," and "The Prestige." He was also a fashion icon, known for his unique sense of style and his ability to blend different fashion elements into a cohesive whole.

  Bowie's impact on popular culture cannot be overstated. He inspired generations of musicians and artists with his fearlessness, creativity, and willingness to experiment. He was a true original, and his influence can be seen in everything from fashion to film to music.

  Tragically, Bowie passed away in 2016, just two days after his 69th birthday. His death was a shock to the music world and to his legions of fans, who mourned the loss of one of the greatest and most innovative artists of all time.
