Touch is the second studio album by Australian rock band Noiseworks. It was released by CBS Records on 14 November 1988.[1]

The album debuted at No. 5 on the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) Albums Chart.[7] The album was produced by Chris Kimsey (The Rolling Stones) and Noiseworks.[8] The title track preceded it as the first single, peaking at No. 12 on the ARIA Singles Chart.[7] Subsequent singles "Voice of Reason", "Simple Man" and "In My Youth" failed to make the Top 40 (despite the latter receiving considerable radio airplay). Nevertheless, Noiseworks became at the time one of Australia's most popular live rock acts.[9]
