Autograph – Turn Up the Radio
Biography
They formed in 1983 by vocalist/guitarist Steve Plunkett, guitarist Steve Lynch, bassist Randy Rand, keyboard player Steven Isham, and drummer Keni Richards, the band seemed to have it all: a fine commercial hard rock debut in 1984’s Sign in Please, good looks, and great hair. Still, it wasn’t enough, and by the time they released the following year’s under appreciated “That’s the Stuff”, the 80s glam metal audience had moved on. 1987’s Loud and Clear got a bit of attention, thanks to Ozzy Osbourne’s cameo in their video, but arrived too late to save the band, which split up in 1989. A posthumous collection of outtakes called Missing Pieces was released a decade later.
Despite scoring a massive MTV hit with their very first single, “Turn Up the Radio,” Autograph quickly got lost in the shuffle of the thriving Los Angeles pop-metal scene.
In 2003, Steve Plunkett put out a reunion album of sorts: An all-new material album entitled “Buzz”, which retained their 80’s sound.

Walking home from Junior High in Wichita, Ks. along Central Avenue in 1984, I bought the used cassette 'Sign In Please' with my allowance money from a spot called 'Poverty Records.' but only because 'Turn Up The Radio' was kicking ass on all the radio stations in the nation at that time. Yeah, my friends thought I was cool for 2 weeks, and then everyone slowly realized there was nothing else of value on this album. Good times. But not for long.

If you can sign shit like hip hop then you can sign Autograph for sure, maybe on mainstream charts they've had one hit. But they wrote several awesome songs, troll.
