3 stars After seeing Magnum at Milton Keynes prior to the release of "Vigilante" I was surprised how their live sound didn't get accurately transfered to the album. If you like this album try and get hold of the recording of these songs at Milton Keynes. Really good! I don't really blame the musicianship mainly the production. The result I have found is rather weak. Oh yeah, the cover was absolutely aweful. Much of the songs were great for the time but we are talking about the back end of the eightees when hairspray bands were still very popular. Now bands like Magnum are generally forgotten and passed over for classic rock bands.

I have great fondness for this era but mainly for the memories including the tshirts and gigs I attended. The music now however is a little embarrasing.
