[@leannegibson797]

My brother and I drove our mother crazy with this song. Turn up your radio

[@abercrombie1416]

I met Jim Keats in the 80s,and he gave me his autograph ,a very nice person very genuine 😊

[@froggieredcliffe8097]

These Guys were The Best ............. can not beat this Great Music from the 70's. RIP Glenn Wheatley, Jim Keays & Gavin Webb, thank you for the Music.

[@nev707]

Jim Keays passed away a few years ago. RIP Jim and Glenn. A friend saw them in their heyday- flares, platform shoes, silk shirts, immaculately combed and sprayed hair. Oh, and great music.

[@martinenicholls6311]

The 70’s were absolutely the best years for rock. Just turn it up!

[@bossswan]

So this was the one that you absolutely wound up the volume. My ears would hurt. It was great. So simple but so good. No bloody special earphone , just simple distorting speakers. Sooo good

[@VeronicaVVV]

yep! soooo good I truly agree!

[@Garryck-1]

Rest in Peace, Glenn Wheatley. He was bassist for The Masters Apprentices, and went on to manage Little River Band, John Farnham & Delta Goodrem, amongst others, He passed away today, 1st Feb 2022, from covid. He was 74. So crank up the volume and play this again, in memory of a great musician!

[@BrokenGun101]

I Just discovered this great song thanks to hearing it being played on the radio today as a tribute to Glenns passing.

Words fail me as the tears flow. Glenn was a very important person in the Australian music industry. The feelings run very deep for music fans everywhere. He wasn't just Glenn Wheatley, he was GLENN WHEATLEY.!!!! I'm currently playing a Best of Masters CD and track 10 is a LIVE version of FUTURE OF OUR NATION. When I was 10 yrs old I got the compilation album EXPLOSIVE HITS 1971 and FUTURE OF OUR NATION really grabbed my attention. The year before I heard TURN UP YOUR RADIO and my brother and sisters and myself would take turns jumping off the lounge when Jim Keays would unleash those famous screams. Well, somebody had to put the needle on the record, it was 1970. LOL!! Glenn will always be remembered as an icon of Australian music and the man that re-ignited the career of John Farnham. Glenn mortgaged his house to fund the manifestation of WHISPERING JACK, the biggest selling Australian album of all time. With a heavy heart, I send my condolences to Glenn's family, friends and his supporters

R.I.P Glenn Dawson Wheatley one of the best bass players to ever come out of Australia, can now jam with Jim again

[@lee-annebarrett366]

Thats not what Glenn Shorrock said about Wheatlys bass playing. I watched it last night, he said he was a bad bass player.

[@ajmaurer5265]

@@lee-annebarrett366 everyone has their own opinion that entitled to, few my mates are bass players too an says same thing that he's one of the best.

[@Johnnralph]

One thumbs down just proves there's always someone that doesn't appreciate a great song

[@DJWagga]

Don't be too harsh. They might have had finger trouble and meant to click thumbs up. :-P

[@bernadettelanders7306]

I have an assumption only about thumbs down. I see so many. I think there are people who put thumbs down on anything, without even listening for some strange reason. I think of them as Troll thumbers lol, Oh I pressed like. All so young in that video. They’d be pushing or in their 70s now. Watched the best doco on KZbin , Glenn Wheatley talking about his life. Absolutely amazing what’s he’s achieved in his life - I had no idea. Brilliant man.

[@alanlane3670]

One of the best rock songs ever written.......

[@markskeels1952]

From humble beginnings to a legend in Australian music...thank you Mr Wheatley...

[@joshtovo7636]

Yep!!! Rip Mr Wheatley 🙏🏼

[@karenglenn6707]

I was 8 years old when this came out. My introduction to rock, which I have loved ever since. We had some brilliant bands in this country, even back then.

[@ianmuir3392]

I was 19. Awesome

[@mikehendry34]

Golden memories. In Melbourne that meant Saturday mornings watching Ross D Wylie and Happening 70 (?) and the boys closing out three hours of rock n roll with turn up your radio

Brilliant! Never gets dated!

[@lindagatti7796]

Great Aussie Group. I think a have a cd of them. I have to now listen to the Masters Apprentices. Thanks Ron.x

[@stephensav2728]

Remember when this first came out in 1970 fantastic I was 13 and yes the Masters were grossly underrated. Turn it up man and belt it out !!

[@leonardgmiller8924]

I was 15 and a rebel so this suited me along with the Zoot Sky hooks and other great Aussie rockers

[@ralphsmith3529]

Ahhh! The great Dougie Ford! The musical genius who drove this magnificent band! The albums they cut in the UK, 'Choice Cuts' and "A Toast to Panama Red' are absolute classics, and way ahead of their time! The Masters were so under-rated!

[@raymondsommerfeldt2817]

Absolutely loved the Masters!!!

[@VeronicaVVV]

btw they the apprentices of the masters lol not the masters its in the band name.

[@joshtovo7636]

The Masters Apprentices 🙊🙉🙈👌🏽

[@robertw5316]

Had this song on my brain but I had no idea of its name or the singer or anything. Then all of a sudden it came to me. Now I can't stop listening to it. I am 62. More than the song itself which is brilliant I love the video. The whole thing is fantastic.

[@Bexta1976-j8c]

RIP Glenn so sad to hear this tonight 😓🙏🏻

[@electronwave4551]

In the mid-1980s in Perth, I was listening to a community AM radio station. From memory of what was said, Glenn Wheatley was in town and playing bass for the first time in a long time at some pub, where he admitted he was a 'bit rough' on bass in lacking practice. He said something along the lines that 'Turn Up Your Radio' was the band's response to remarks that the Masters Apprentices lacked bite, so they decided to go completely over the top in recording the track.

[@lee-annebarrett366]

I loved this song, l was 12 years old. My sisters best friend went on a date with Keyes 64 and l still love the song, l suppose it just draws me back to my younger self in Adelaide .

[@ACDZ123]

Did he get her pregnant?

I had no idea this song was by an Aussie band, we have such an underrated but strong music scene, I do wish it was on mainstream TV more often as people my gen and younger would forget gems like this.

I used to hang out with the MP's I was 16 they all drove Vintage Jags and lived in North Adelaide. There was a lot of smoke in the living room just saying Ha ha Ha!

[@MikeBlitzMag]

That a live clip of this monster classic has survived is nothing short of answered prayer. For my money, this single remains their finest moment. And given the quality of their overall repertoire, that's saying a lot.

[@forrykook]

MikeBlitzMag I'm not sure about it being live though. There's definitely no one in the video playing the brass so it looks mimed to me.

[@KAM66300]

Jim Keays could certainly wail!!!! Great old song that still rocks on!!!! Love the fact that they sampled from Rock Around The Clock before sampling was even a thing!!!!
