The Great Radio Controversy

The Great Radio Controversy is the second studio album by American hard rock band Tesla, released in 1989. The album's sound has been described as "glam metal to play inside the cab of a tractor-blusey denim and downright wholesome". The hit singles "Love Song", "Heaven's Trail", "Hang Tough" and "The Way It Is" received considerable airplay on MTV's Headbangers Ball and rocketed the band to stardom. The album was certified double platinum by the RIAA on July 23, 1998. The album is titled after the controversy about the identity of the inventor of radio. It is posited that Serbian engineer Nikola Tesla is the true inventor of radio, while the Italian Guglielmo Marconi took the credit and is widely regarded as having the title. The album's inner sleeve recounts this story.
