Night and Day (Joe Jackson album)
Night and Day is the fifth studio album by Joe Jackson, released in June 1982. It reached the Top 5 in both the UK and US, Jackson's only studio album to do so in either country. It sold over one million copies, earning platinum disc status. It also quickly achieved platinum status in Canada.

The album pays tribute to the wit and style of Cole Porter (and indirectly to New York). The track "Real Men" pointed obliquely to the city's early 1980s gay culture.

"Steppin' Out" earned Grammy nominations for Record of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Performance, Male. It reached #6 on both the UK and the US charts.  "Breaking Us in Two" reached #18 in the US and #59 in the UK.

In 2016 independent record label Intervention Records reissued Night and Day on 180-gram vinyl.

Reissues 
In 1997, A&M released a digitally remastered CD manufactured in Europe. Not only were the tracks remastered, but "Another World" has an extra 2 bars in the intro. The crossfades for the songs were also re-created. 

In 2003, A&M released a deluxe version of the album with a bonus disc consisting of live tracks and demos.
