THE ELEVENTH HOUR

Forth album of Magnum from 1983. Not very much to said here, pieces between 3 and 5 minutes without very much to offer, just an AOR with hard rock elements. Quite less good than predecesor and far from the next one On a storytellers night, The eleventh hour must considered a good album, but nothing more. Anyway some good tracks can be extracted from here like:Hit and Run, Young and Precious Souls, the rest are also good but not exciting, only to listen from time to time if you want something simple not very chalenging. Because Jet Records was going nowhere guitarist Tony Clarkin had to handle production duties himself, and the album suffers accordingly from a rather weak and now dated production than the predecesor or the next releases. I think this album is not bad but not very special either, 3 stars for The eleventh hour.
