NIGHT RANGER – Midnight Madness [Rock Candy remastered & reloaded] (2023)

While NIGHT RANGER‘s second album “Midnight Madness” already sounds great on vinyl and there has been fine CD reissues, now Rock Candy Records has released their own remastered & reloaded version. And let me tell that this job – handled by capable Jon Astley – really convinced us with its brilliant, defined sonic output.

Following fast on the heels of their splendid debut ‘Dawn Patrol’, the guys in Night Ranger clock in with another US Melodic Hard Rock masterpiece. For “Midnight Madness” they haven’t strayed too far from the formula they created on that first album. If anything, “Midnight Madness” rocks even harder.

Despite this album spawned the band’s biggest hit in the form of a super-ballad “Sister Christian” – which served as their commercial breakthrough – “Midnight Madness” is mostly driven by hard rockers. Just check out opener “(You Can Still) Rock In America” (featuring The Voice Of Rock Glenn Hughes on backing vocals), the stormy “Why Does Love Have To Change” or the pulsating “Rumors In The Air”.
Then enjoy the Melodic Rock perfection of “When You Close Your Eyes” with Jack Blades and Kelly Keagy trading off on the vocals, the steamy rock of “Passion Play”, and finish it off with the delicate “Let Him Run”.

“Midnight Madness” went platinum and rocketed Night Ranger to stardom and endless tours. And it’s another Melodic Hard Rock album among the best ever recorded.
