L.A. Run is a song written and composed by Alan Carvell and Brian O Shea, and recorded by the Carvells in 1977 which reached number 31 in the UK charts in November of the same year. The song is about the then-new craze of Skateboarding which had crossed-over from the US to the UK that same year.
With new lyrics in Swedish by Björn Håkanson and Stefan Schröder as Skateboard, Magnum Bonum scored a 1978 success with the song.
