Sammy Hagar's autobiography, Red: My Uncensored Life In Rock, is making waves before it's even in stores (it's out 15 March). A gripping page-turner, it chronicles the Red Rocker's life and climb to success in stunning detail.

Many of the details are stunning, too. If you read our no-holds-barred interview with Hagar yesterday, you know that the man is a walking and talking straight-shooter. To Hagar, no question is off-limits, and his every answer is candid and to the point.

But you don't have to drive 55 (or over) to the bookstore to nab your copy of the book - not yet anyhow. To celebrate the release of Red, My Uncensored Life In Rock, MusicRadar has teamed with Hagar's publisher, IT Books, an imprint of HarperCollins, to offer these gotta-have-'em prizes...

  • Five Grand Prize winners will receive an autographed copy of Red: My Uncensored Life In Rock
