Tonight's the Night (2025 Remaster)
Let's get a popular misconception out of the way. The rap about this being one of Young's darkest, most harrowing albums is utter nonsense, perpetuated by critics who spend more time reading each other than listening to the music. TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT is dedicated to Young's guitarist Danny Whitten and roadie Bruce Berry, who died shortly before this recording was made, and the title cut details that very subject, but the darker moments here are leavened by a generous share of ...

I've Missed You All These Years
There’s a moment halfway through I’ve Missed You All These Years, the fifth record from Seattle songwriter and producer Sera Cahoone, that captures the album’s mix of collective joy and resilient wisdom. Backed by the gentle lilt of a pedal steel and keyboard on “Pulling Up Roots,” she declares, “I’m alright/ After all this time.” It’s a lyric that feels like a deep exhale, one that reflects the transformative journey to Cahoone’s boldest and brightest album. The daughter of a dynamite salesman raised in the Colorado foothills, Cahoone picked up drumming at just 11 years old. ...
