Radio Silence is the first full-length album by the Toronto-based new wave band Blue Peter.[3] Released in 1980, it contained the moderately successful single "Video Verite", as well as the eponymous single "Radio Silence", known for its simple "dying keyboard" riff.[4] The album ranked 60th in CFNY's Top 80 Albums of 1980.[5]

The original LP release credits production to Jasper and Blue Peter. The CD issue from 2007 credits the producers as Kevin Doyle, Chris Wardman and Jasper.
