Turn It Up!

'As the producer of some of Cheap Trick's biggest albums, including Dream Police and Heaven Tonight, Tom helped take our songs from black-and-white to dazzling full color, just as he has with so many other bands over the years. Now he gives us a peek behind the curtain at how some of the greatest albums in rock and metal were made.' - Bun E. Carlos, Cheap Trick 'In late 1987 or early '88, an interviewer asked, Who's producing your next album? Our bassist, Bobby Dall, answered, We've decided to work with Tom Producer! Everyone laughed until we realized that was like calling someone Joe Pro or Captain Obvious. But when you're dealing with Tom Werman, you are dealing with Tom Producer--the quintessential platinum record producer for rock bands.' - Rikki Rockett, Poison 'Through all the craziness that came with working with Mötley Crüe in the 80s, there was one thing I could rely on, and that was for Tom and the band to keep the music coming. Tom's memoir takes you on a journey to the heart of the music industry--passion, triumph, and unforgettable melodies. Highly recommended.' - Doc McGhee, manager of Mötley Crüe, Bon Jovi, and KISS 'As someone who worked with Tom during the 70s and 80s, Turn It Up! resonates with me, bringing back memories of the highs and lows of the music industry. A must-read for anyone inspired by the power and magic of rock'n'roll music.' - Tom Whalley, former head of A&R at Capitol Records and president of Warner Bros Records
