My 1st concert was Motley Crue's Theatre of Pain and Autograph opened for them early 80's. Plunkett now does a lot of theme songs. Like the tv show "7th Heaven". He wrote and sung the theme.
my hair looks just like steve plunkett's. trying to find clothes like that is the bitch though. ive got a big collection, but its starting to get worn out :(. i wish video were still this cool.
This is what I miss seeing guys with hair not a bunch of Bald heads. Also having Music Blasting from Your Car Stereo. Which was always Rock not that Aweful Wrap and Hip-Hop Crap. Most Kids Back then were into Real music Like This Now theyre trying to be Something they are Not.. Rock 'N' Roll Forever!!
There was a re-release of That's the Stuff with a different cover, and also with a cover of the song "We're an American Band." That re-release is extremely rare. I have a vinyl 33 of the "We're an American Band" single.
Wow, I have this album, and never knew there was a video for it. Thanks so much for posting it. Can't believe Steve Plunkett is the same guy who wrote/performed the theme for Seventh Heaven. HA! Autograph kicked ass.
Its a shame this album bombed probably because of bad promotion..I have the album and it's pretty bad ass..However, i wouldn't place it higher in my list than "sign in please"..Turn up the Radio and Send Her to Me are still the winners. As for the comment about them being 'hairy' ..well unless you lived the era..you wouldn't understand about the long hair..it was a chick magnet back then.
Well said. In retrospect I think a lot of the "big hair" bands were under-appreciated for their musicianship. Although many of these bands appeared to focus on the wild-party-boy, screw all the girls aspect, much great music was also produced. After Nirvana came along and the hair band era died off much of their music was unfairly dismissed. The 80's in general produced some great music. 90's music seems a bit dreary in comparison.
You're absolutely right about the radical change in musical style, and questionable taste, in music, from the early 90s on. I never cared for any of the music that became popular in the 90s. When amplified, thoroughly polished, fine-tuned, and well-produced 80s hard-rock and heavy metal met its end was around 1991. The new alternative sound was bland, non-stimulating, distorted, mediocre, over-simplified and pathologically boring, as well as torture to listen to. Ultimate musical bastardization.
Steve seriously knew how to write some music man! i CANT FOR THE LIFE OF ME FIGURE OUT WHY THEIR FOLLOWING ALBUMS BOMBED :( they are so amazing!!!! seriously! what gives? This is a hit if i ever heard one! Long live the 80's!
You can't figure out why Autograph's later albums bombed?
Think about it. Nobody knew, back then, how much today's music would suck. Mediocritiy has dropped to an entirely new low since the introduction of main-stream hip-hop, gangsta-rap, and that stinking alternative/grunge shit. Pop-artists today are nothing original: just a bastardization of hip-hop, alternative, blues, modern rock, etc.. Pure shit, in other words, and yet they and their record handlers exert themselves like legends.
This Band defines what 80's Heavy Metal Is About, This song & most of their other songs should have been hits, cuz their music is bad ass. this song was alot better than turn up the radio in my point of view. I saw this band open up for van halen in 1984 at miami, fl. it was the concert of my life.
just hearing steve lynch's solos brings memories. the whole sound of this band represents everything the 80s was about, just awesome, if you havent lived it or have the knowledge then you just wouldnt understand. love it.
They made 3 excellent Hard Rock records in the fantastic 80's... Man I wish I was alive back then... Today doesn't have anything up against the 80's! 80's ROCKS! TODAY SUX!
Most if not all of the Live and backstage footage was shot Dec. 21st 1985 in Hollywood, Fl. Autograph was opening for Motley Crue. That was my 1st concert and remember the camera's well.
i don't say this shit every day, when i say it, ......it means something.

I prefer Sign in Please and Loud and Clear but That's The Stuff is also great.
Why I prefer those two albums to Stuff is cause of that I'm more familiar with those albums because Stuff never made it to Europe on CD by RCA.

my favorite thing you said was
"Mediocritiy has dropped to an entirely new low"
your very right man...today's generation and their concept of..."cool" is ASS backwards!!!
but i know that one day ROCK AND ROLL will be number one again! I hope :]
I hope to bring it back with my band!!!
