Betty Wright - Tonight Is The Night (studio Version)

Okay, now I know that the live version this song is great...but unfortunately its so great, that its the ONLY version that I can find anywhere. Its even on all of Betty Wright's "best of..." "and "greatest hits...." collections. Its also the only version that I can find on every file-sharing program that I have. Its the only version that can be found on other mix compilations. I cant even find the original album that it came off of in record stores.

Does anybody have the studio version? If so, can you post it up?

You'll probably have to settle for this 2 CD comp...



...Danger High Voltage/This Time For Real

Danger High Voltage has the studio version of Tonight Is the Night.
Amazon has got it for about $14.

It's also on "The Best of TK Records" but I haven't seen it in stores for years.

hmmm That's probably a much better snag...



...if you want some very cool TK releases by other artists also.

1. Crank It up (Funk Town, Pt. 1) - Peter Brown
2. Why Can't We Live Together - Timmy Thomas
3. Rock Your Baby - George McCrae
4. Rockin' Chair - Gwen McCrae
5. Get Down Tonight - KC & the Sunshine Band
6. Shoorah! Shoorah! - Betty Wright
7. Party Down, Pt. 1 - Little Beaver
8. Get Off - Foxy
9. Do Ya Wanna Get Funky With Me - Peter Brown
10. Tonight Is the Night - Betty Wright
11. Keep the Home Fire Burnin' - Latimore
12. Ring My Bell - Anita Ward
13. I'm Your Boogie Man - KC & the Sunshine Band
14. Gimme Some (Pt. 1) - Jimmy "Bo" Horne
15. Dance With Me - Peter Brown
16. Rapp Payback (Where Iz Moses?) - James Brown
17. It's a Heartache - Ronnie Spector
18. Hot Number - Foxy

It's a Heartache by Ronnie Spector is a bit odd and out of place but the rest is classic.

Plus Amazon has got 'em new & used from $2.88!

Very cool vainandy thumbs up!

To be honest,I prefer the "live" version.The studio version is cool,but she really takes it to another level on the live version.

I also prefer the live version by far. I think that's why it's harder to find the studio version because the live version is so popular.

I know live version has the story and an extra verse not included in the original version but I cant stand the audience in the background.
