Tonight cd with bonus tracks?
|

|
Is the album Tonight on cd with the bonus tracks worth much? as I saw it second hand for £5 and I'm not sure whether to get it.

I've never seen it that cheap, though I wouldn't be that interested in it as I have all the tracks on other cd's, Now if it was Never let me down, that is the best of the four Virgin re-issues.
I agree with the above statement.

I got Let's Dance but that just has 1 bonus track. NLMD is the best of the releases, plenty of nice extras. I might get the Tonight cd.

I once ordered a copy of Never let me down mail order in the late 90's thinking I was getting the Virgin re-issue, I had not realised that EMI had taken back the license and re-issued it in 1998, I was really pissed off about that as I already had the original 1987 version anyway and only ordered it for the bonus tracks.
I agree with the above statement.

What bonus tracks are on the Let's Dance, NLMD & Tonight Virgin re-issues? I don't think I have any of these--although I'm certain I've got the bonus tracks from other sources.
Still curious, though, and I couldn't find the answer on Bassman for some reason.

Bassman probably (accidentally or not) omits them because they weren't a part of the Ryko/EMI re-releases though they were similar to them. Mightn't be a bad idea to a-mail him and let him know those are missing from the listings.
Speaking of CD reissues BTW, I saw a very interesting reissue of Tonight the other day in Helsinki. A re-release from 2003, without any bonus tracks but restoring the original artworks (which are probably the best part of the album, anyway). I don't remember the record label (it was something I hadn't heard of before), but apparently they had got official rights for the release from EMI. I found it most odd.
(I'm actually toying with the idea of buying the thing just for the artworks ).

I think it is worth the bonus tracks, i paid about £12.00 for my copy, off amazon market place, it was new, all sealed etc... i was very pleased with mine 
It's worth it alone for Absolute Beginners

Looks like I missed it, someone else must have bought it. Damn, oh well will still keep an eye out for another.

You did miss an opportunity there for £5.00, still not to worry, im sure you'll spot another bargain.
It's well worth buying anything Bowie, with bonus tracks on, or that looks old and interesting, if you are not that keen ? you can always register on ebay or Amazon market place, and sell them, and it's free to do so, but they do take a percentage of course.

Thanks for the bonus tracks track-listing, Tristan. As I suspected, I have them all from other sources.
