9/02/2009 Autograph - Turn Up The Radio (Stereo!)

"Turn Up the Radio" is a song by glam metal band Autograph from the album, Sign in Please.

Released in 1984, "Turn Up The Radio" was Autograph's only hit, reaching #29 in the Billboard 100 and receiving massive MTV airplay.

The song was also featured on the soundtrack of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, on the fictional radio station, VRock.

A demo version of the song appears on the bands "odds and ends" collection entitled Missing Pieces, featuring a slightly different chorus.

The song was named the 93rd best hard-rock song of all time by VH1.

Autograph was formed in 1983 originally as a solo project for singer-songwriter/guitarist Steve Plunkett (also known as "Plunk"), who had recently left the band Silver Condor, due to his frustration with their lack of interest in recording his songs. Plunkett then began playing and recording his own material with a group of his musician friends, most of whom had previously played with him in other bands.
