Biography

Autograph was formed in October, 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.

On lead guitar was Steve Lynch (not to be confused with the musician/comedian), who had played with Plunkett in the band Looker, and who has a distinctive two-handed, fretboard-tapping technique, which eventually won him the „Guitar Solo of the Year“ award from Guitar Player magazine for his work on Autograph’s signature song, „Turn Up The Radio.“ Bassist Randy Rand knew Plunkett from their days together in Wolfgang, a club band in Los Angeles, which has been described as a local legend and of which Kevin Dubrow (lead singer of Quiet Riot) said, „They smoked us all…They got better response than us and Van Halen“[1]. Steve Isham, keyboard player and longtime friend of Plunkett’s, had earlier played with Holly Penfield, and on drums, Plunkett called on Keni Richards, his bandmate from John Doe, and whose friendship with Van Halen lead singer David Lee Roth led to Autograph’s big break.
