Tonight I'm Yours

Released in 1981, this record moves past the gravelly blues-rock origins that characterized the singer's previous work. By utilizing synthesizers and programmed percussion, the album adopts a streamlined and modern feel. It successfully adjusts to the stylistic shifts in early eighties radio.

These tracks emphasize a tight, rhythmic precision that creates a bright, electronic energy. The arrangements signal a departure from conventional rock structures toward the punchy, commercial style that would persist throughout the remainder of the decade.
