Rocktopia: Tonight - 'Drummer Man' - CD Review

A Rocktopia / Fireworks Magazine album review by Steven Reid: Credited as being the first band who coined the phrase Power Pop, Southend band Tonight are the classic tale of a talented band that got caught up in record label politics, their star burned very brightly, but very briefly. Forming in mid 1977 it is almost inevitable that the Tonight sound is infused with the energy and swagger of punk, however it is amazing just how sixties influenced the twelve tracks that were intended to make up the band's debut album are. Imagine if Paul McCartney and John Lennon had formed a band in the late seventies and you won't be far off the sound presented here. http://ping.fm/QTvne
