Customer Review ...or maybe 2.5 but it has too many fillers With the very good "On a storyteller's night", the band turned towards a more melodic and AOR oriented musical direction, something that stood out even more on the follow up "Vigilante" (their best effort?). In the beginning, Magnum had a more progressive approach. On this album, "Good night L. A. ", Magnum continue deliver polished rock but the material is not as good as on previous efforts. There are way too many fillers and mediocre songs, even `tho the tracks "Rocking chair" and "Heartbroke and busted" are among the best in their long career. If you want to explore Magnum, this album is not the best starting point, and I believe you have to be a big fan to consider this effort essential. .
