All Music Guide Review:
Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
On the basis of Tonight, it appears that David Bowie didn't have a clear idea of how to follow the platinum success of Let's Dance. Instead of breaking away from the stylized pop of "Let's Dance" and "China Girl," Bowie delivers another record in the same style. Apart from the single "Blue Jean," none of the material equals the songs on Let's Dance, but that doesn't stop Tonight from becoming another platinum success. Nevertheless, the record stands as one of the weakest albums Bowie ever recorded.
aa note: It is also one of the best sounding recordings I have heard. Look at this Dynamic Range Info:
DR15 -0.94 dB -17.51 dB 7:10 01-Loving the Alien
DR19 0.00 dB -21.57 dB 4:12 02-Don't Look Down
DR14 -1.39 dB -18.56 dB 3:09 03-God Only Knows
DR16 -1.64 dB -20.25 dB 3:46 04-Tonight
DR14 0.00 dB -15.37 dB 3:14 05-Neighborhood Threat
DR16 -0.23 dB -17.25 dB 3:11 06-Blue Jean
DR16 -0.60 dB -18.29 dB 4:58 07-Tumble and Twirl
DR16 0.00 dB -17.40 dB 2:36 08-I Keep Forgettin'
DR14 -0.88 dB -17.57 dB 3:36 09-Dancing With the Big Boys
Listen to Don't Look Down and hear sound as good as it gets.
