Turn on Your Radio is the sixth and final studio album by the Italian/U.S. ensemble Change. It was released in 1985 and reached number sixty-four on the US Billboard Black Albums chart, and number thirty-nine on the UK Albums Chart.Turn on Your Radio includes the singles "Let's Go Together", "Examination" (in Italy only), "Oh What A Feeling" and "Mutual Attraction".

The band recorded the songs for album at Morning Studios, Milan, Italy. The sessions were then taken to Atlantic Recording Studios, New York City to be mixed. Receiving negative reviews the album was originally released as an LP in April 1985. The album was released with two different artwork designs. The UK version released on Cooltempo Records was designed by Greg Porto and the photography was by Robert Lewis.

Turn on Your Radio received negative reviews by the majority of critics. Ron Wynn reviewing for Allmusic marked the absence of a strong soulful-lead vocalist such as former Change collaborators Luther Vandross or James Robinson as a flaw. "The leads throughout this session, even on the lone successful single, "Let's Go Together," were more efficient than distinctive. Wynn also noted that the production had faltered describing the arrangements of Jacques Fred Petrus as "recycled" takes on what had "once made the group a major act".

Recorded at Morning Studios, Milan, Italy. Mixed at Atlantic Recording Studios, New York City.
