AUTOGRAPH - The Anthology [2CD] (2011)

*

Autograph, one of the most notable acts of the hair metal golden years, brings us from their vaults "The Anthology".
This double CD edition includes all the band's hits on their prime versions plus a bunch of rarities.

Disc 1 "Studio Demos 1983-1988" consists of almost 2 / 3 of the material appeared into Autograph's first three records: 'Sign In Please', 'That's The Stuff' and 'Loud And Clear'.
All these tracks are pre-production demos / earlier versions (with great sound), including their biggest hit "Turn Up The Radio". It's funny to hear this song with a twist in the lyrics.
The second CD "Buzz & Beyond" offers rare songs from the 2nd incarnation of the band when leader Steve Plunkett added to the line-up drummer Matt Laug (Slash), the excellent guitarist T. J. Helmerich (Dwezil Zappa, Planet X) and Alice Cooper / John Waite bass player Lance Morrison.

Released in limited quantities, in a luxury package with lots of never seen pictures of the band earlier years, this is a must have release to any collector and fans of the good, catchy hair / soft metal genre.
