Night Out (album)
Night Out is the 1979 debut studio album by Ellen Foley, a long-time backup vocalist for Meat Loaf. Seven of the nine tracks were cover versions of Foley's favorite songs, while two were co-written by Foley, one of which was "We Belong to the Night", which hit #1 in the Netherlands and #31 in Australia around Christmas of 1979. The musicians were mostly from Ian Hunter's touring band for his 1979 album You're Never Alone with a Schizophrenic, with the addition of Australian musician Kerryn Tolhurst on slide guitar.

gollark: You need a lot of osmarks metal, yes.
gollark: You put iron ingots and coal into the metallurgic infuser and get enriched iron. Then you run that through and get steel blend, which you smelt into steel. You can decrease coal usage by a factor of 8 by using the enrichment chamber to make compressed coal.
gollark: But it's more efficient and fast. You need a metallurgic infuser and, for coal efficiency, an enrichment chamber.
gollark: Did you make Mekanism steel production? You are to.
gollark: GTech™ policy doesn't say to. Also, maybe we should do bees (Forestry). And you get them from breaking diamond ore and such.
