The soundtrack of the computer video game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, which is set in 1992 in the fictional U.S. West Coast state of San Andreas, required that the game's radio stations reflect the music tastes of the time and area, in addition to covering current events in the state of San Andreas, and even weather forecasts. Together with several pieces of early-1990s music, the soundtrack also included songs from the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. Many of the songs interpolate or sample other songs which feature in this or other GTA titles, such as Ice Cube's "Check Yo Self", which samples " The Message", which was featured in Vice City or "Weekend" which appears in its original form on Paradise FM in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories.

The official soundtrack, available on Interscope Records, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas Official Soundtrack and the Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas Official Soundtrack Box Set collection were released internationally on November 23, 2004 and December 7, 2004 respectively. Michael Hunter is the composer of the theme song and incidental music.

Radio Los Santos

"Radio Los Santos" redirects here. For the 2013 version from Grand Theft Auto V, see Grand Theft Auto V soundtrack § Radio Los Santos.

RLS hosts a number of shout-outs from the public of San Andreas and in-game characters. This station was released in a joint album with Playback FM as part of the 8-Disc soundtrack. The station also includes references to " carjacking on the rise", that activity being a key element of the gameplay. Sometimes after a mission, Julio gives out weather reports and news regarding Los Santos events, and encourages Carl "CJ" Johnson to phone his girlfriend, Denise.

Radio X

DJ: Sage (voiced by Jodie Shawback)
Location: Las Venturas
Genre: Alternative rock/ metal, grunge, heavy metal, hard rock
Tracklist:

Summary: Radio X is an Alternative and period modern rock radio station hosted by Sage (voiced by Jodie Shawback). Sage is a very self-obsessed woman and self-proclaimed rebel who seems to always be worked up about something, making her a stereotypical Gen X-er. Sage has a "bleak outlook on life" and her most apparent obsessions are the sound of her own voice, along with sex as she admits to have slept with the entire Danzig line-up, along with a man she "did behind the Cluckin' Bell", and pleads "could somebody please sleep with me!" during the outro to Soundgarden's "Rusty Cage" amongst at least two other references. She comes from an upper class suburban family that gave her a trust fund, which she takes shame in, stating that she is "poor in spirit". Sage has strong dislike towards people over the age of 29, believes in reincarnation and admits to having huffed paint and ether. Sage reacts negatively to the in-game events barring the Los Santos riots, and gets excited when the forecast predicts rain.

Radio X picks up a couple of callers, however these "two" callers are both voiced by Jeff Berlin who voices and produces the Radio X imaging. The name itself is a possible reference on Generation X, who came of age and were the main listeners of the genre in the early 90s, and/or Detroit's alt-rock radio station 89X Radio, which was founded in the very early '90s.

One of two callers is Hans' father who orders him to play some " Wagner", and Oberlander possibly does drugs as his father continues to say "your mother found these pills in your room". Oberlander also inquires if his dealer has shown up yet in another song break. This is the only station not to be released as a San Andreas soundtrack. The song Weekend is Todd Terry's remixed version. The original is present on the Vice City Stories soundtrack.

West Coast Talk Radio (WCTR)

"West Coast Talk Radio" redirects here. For the 2013 version from Grand Theft Auto V, see Grand Theft Auto V soundtrack § WCTR: West Coast Talk Radio.

Host: Various
Location: Los Santos
Genre: News & Talk
Unlike some of the other games in the Grand Theft Auto series, San Andreas features only one radio station dedicated to news and talk radio. West Coast Talk Radio abbreviated as WCTR is a news and talk radio station which consists of news, current affairs and information programming. The station is broadly similar to KABC-790, KFI 640, and KNX 1070 in Los Angeles, as well as KGO-810, KSFO-560, and KCBS 740 in San Francisco. Depending on a player's progress through the game's storyline, the segments played on WCTR will change. Thus, during one segment of the game, the player may only hear specific portions of programs not to be heard again as new segments are aired. This is prominent in the 'WCTR News', 'Entertaining America', and 'The Wild Traveler' programs. Various intros, outros and comments are delivered by Barbara Fox. Several characters from the main game make cameos in the radio programs and advertising and studio broadcasts in Los Santos,

Programs

WCTR consists of several programs:

WCTR News — Hosted by Lianne Forget (Sharon Washington) with Richard Burns ( Wil Wheaton), which features up-to-date news in the San Andreas state. Overall there are 11 separate installments of the WCTR News throughout the game. The program hints at Forget and Burns having an affair. As the installments progress, the tone gets more and more agitated. Richard Burns is frequently under influence of something whilst on the air. At the end of each segment, Lianne usually advises people to "stay inside", and tells them, "it's safer there." In one installment, Richard Burns is punched in the groin by "Jimmy", once an extremely popular child actor on a 1980s sitcom in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, who was drunk in Las Venturas at the time. In the part when the news are being introduced, there is a part where Big Smoke makes a speech about his program for children in Los Santos (he is also OG Loc's current manager at that time).

The Tight End Zone — Sports program hosted by Derrick Thackery (Peter Appel). Thackery does not actually care as much about the sports as the passions aroused from it. He was molested by his uncle when he was younger and appears to be afraid of making definite comments on sports, women and other things.

The Wild Traveler — Travel program hosted by James Pedeaston ( Sam Tsoutsouvas). Pedeaston is a child molester wanted in Malaysia and is being investigated by the FBI. He enjoys traveling the world and logging some of his most 'exotic' encounters in his travelogue, some of which he accidentally reads on-air to the disgust of the listener. His show appears to be so reviled by his listeners that at one point, he receives few calls which are not supportive. For example, a caller tells him to stop droning on about other countries and focus on talking about where he lives. He also got a phone call from a suicidal man that wanted to go to hell and he told him "Me too! Buy (me a) refrigerator magnet when you get there". On October 23, 2003, James was tried and convicted. Sometime in between his trial and the setting of Grand Theft Auto IV, a site was set up (freejames.org) asking people to donate to his legal fund. The website only received $23.

Entertaining America — Entertainment program hosted by Billy Dexter (Peter Marx) and later Lazlow (Lazlow Jones), featuring various guests. Dexter is accidentally fatally shot by a gun-wielding Jack Howitzer (star of the Exploder movie from Vice City) and after a rather lengthy hiatus (which includes Howitzer's subsequent conviction on WCTR news) is replaced by Lazlow. When Lazlow took over the show, his guests included OG Loc (throughout the interview, he and Loc have several misunderstandings, such as when Loc tells Lazlow that he is a 'busta' to which Lazlow cannot understand what it means), Chris Formage ( Fred Melamed), leader of a cult called the "Epsilon Program", and Darius Fontaine (a new age, radical preacher who urges his fans to 'face their fears'). Opie and Anthony made a cameo as callers on the show. Opie talked about hunter-gatherers while Anthony said that he'd "really like to make out with hot chicks in church", which is a reference to Sex for Sam 3. According to Dexter, Entertaining America is headquartered in Vinewood.

Gardening with Maurice — Gardening show hosted by Maurice ( Andy Dick). Maurice is a rather gay and horny personality that not only loves his gardens, but his own body as well. For example, he likes to take pictures of both when they are "blossoming." He also offers unorthodox advice and unusual plant suggestions to callers. The name of the show originated on the Grand Theft Auto III rendition of Chatterbox FM, where it was said to be 'taken off the air'. He does occasionally express less than loving comments on flowers, plants and living things in general, "A flower is nothing but an educated weed and like all weeds all living things need to be extinguished!". Maurice expresses much anger towards the Proposition 421 (anti-smoking campaign), "Tobacco is a plant, people, and if it comes out of the ground, you should be able to smoke it!".

I Say/You Say — Political debate show hosted by husband-and-wife liberal-and-conservative team of Peyton Phillips ( Paul Ames) and Mary Phillips ( Jackie Hoffman), likely inspired by James Carville and Mary Matalin, two real-life political advisers who began dating while working for the 1992 Presidential campaigns of Bill Clinton and George H. W. Bush, respectively. Peyton and Mary are caricatures of their ideologies: Peyton is extremely liberal, and Mary is a hardcore conservative. For example, when dealing with a caller that had recently buried the corpses of numerous illegal immigrants in his backyard, Mary advises the caller on how to use the corpses to legally get a tax break while Peyton mentions recycling and organ donation. Early shows feature a desperate Lazlow looking for a radio job, asking if he can take Peyton's.

Lonely Hearts Show — Relationship advice program hosted by Christy MacIntyre (Sara Moon), featuring Fernando Martinez ( Frank Chavez) of Vice City fame who deviously takes over one show by setting Christy's car on fire and calling in to tell her to look out the window. Christy panics and runs out, only to be locked out of the station by Fernando who takes over and starts giving advice to callers. When Christy finally gets back into the studio her anger quickly melts into arousal after smelling Fernando's cologne. Fernando sees his chance and makes a move on Christy, and the two proceed to have sex while still live on the air. The station cuts the broadcast shortly after this point and the announcer acts like nothing has happened. Fernando also makes references to his time in Vice City, namely the reasons for why he was chased out of the city. Zero calls in early on, desperate to rid himself from celibacy, as does Jizzy B, hoping to promote his club.

Area 53 — A Coast to Coast AM spoof hosted by Marvin Trill ( Bob Sevra). Broadcasting from 'his trailer in the desert', Trill's main subjects are alien abductions and government conspiracies. Kevin Mitnick guests as a caller who says that he can launch nuclear missiles by whistling into a payphone. This is a reference to an allegation used by prosecutors to keep Mitnick in solitary confinement. He also says that he now only uses his powers for good (as the real Kevin Mitnick now runs a security consulting company). Adam First (Jamie Canfield), the DJ from Vice City's Wave 103 also calls the show to tell him that he saw a man dressed in a space suit mating with Domestobots, to which Trill replies,"Uhh...He probably wants you to leave him alone," implying that it was Trill himself. Later in the same show, an actual Domestobot calls in to tell him that he knows what Trill is doing to his Domestobot brothers and sisters. The Truth also calls in, but is ridiculed by Trill. The first segment of Area 53, Trill ends his show by saying "Be careful out there, wherever you are". In the second Area 53 segment (while CJ is in San Fierro) the four callers in the middle of the show (Mike, Vyvyan, Neil and Rick) share the names of the four main characters of BBC sitcom The Young Ones. At the end of the segment, the announcer says " You are now leaving Area 53. Check your rectum." On 26 December 1999, Marvin made a website (viewable in Grand Theft Auto IV - area53site.com) announcing that he is shutting down the show to "protect his research". He also states that Y2K is very real. He then goes on to say that 10-years from 26 December 1999, he will re-emerge and start a new radio show.

Unlike some of the other games in the Grand Theft Auto series, San Andreas features only one radio station dedicated to news and talk radio. West Coast Talk Radio abbreviated as WCTR is a news and talk radio station which consists of news, current affairs and information programming. The station is broadly similar to KABC-790, KFI 640, and KNX 1070 in Los Angeles, as well as KGO-810, KSFO-560, and KCBS 740 in San Francisco. Depending on a player's progress through the game's storyline, the segments played on WCTR will change. Thus, during one segment of the game, the player may only hear specific portions of programs not to be heard again as new segments are aired. This is prominent in the 'WCTR News', 'Entertaining America', and 'The Wild Traveler' programs. Various intros, outros and comments are delivered by Barbara Fox. Several characters from the main game make cameos in the radio programs and advertising and studio broadcasts in Los Santos,

Programs

WCTR consists of several programs:

WCTR News — Hosted by Lianne Forget (Sharon Washington) with Richard Burns ( Wil Wheaton), which features up-to-date news in the San Andreas state. Overall there are 11 separate installments of the WCTR News throughout the game. The program hints at Forget and Burns having an affair. As the installments progress, the tone gets more and more agitated. Richard Burns is frequently under influence of something whilst on the air. At the end of each segment, Lianne usually advises people to "stay inside", and tells them, "it's safer there." In one installment, Richard Burns is punched in the groin by "Jimmy", once an extremely popular child actor on a 1980s sitcom in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, who was drunk in Las Venturas at the time. In the part when the news are being introduced, there is a part where Big Smoke makes a speech about his program for children in Los Santos (he is also OG Loc's current manager at that time).

When Lazlow took over the show, his guests included OG Loc (throughout the interview, he and Loc have several misunderstandings, such as when Loc tells Lazlow that he is a 'busta' to which Lazlow cannot understand what it means), Chris Formage ( Fred Melamed), leader of a cult called the "Epsilon Program", and Darius Fontaine (a new age, radical preacher who urges his fans to 'face their fears'). Opie and Anthony made a cameo as callers on the show. Opie talked about hunter-gatherers while Anthony said that he'd "really like to make out with hot chicks in church", which is a reference to Sex for Sam 3. According to Dexter, Entertaining America is headquartered in Vinewood.

Gardening with Maurice — Gardening show hosted by Maurice ( Andy Dick). Maurice is a rather gay and horny personality that not only loves his gardens, but his own body as well. For example, he likes to take pictures of both when they are "blossoming." He also offers unorthodox advice and unusual plant suggestions to callers. The name of the show originated on the Grand Theft Auto III rendition of Chatterbox FM, where it was said to be 'taken off the air'. He does occasionally express less than loving comments on flowers, plants and living things in general, "A flower is nothing but an educated weed and like all weeds all living things need to be extinguished!". Maurice expresses much anger towards the Proposition 421 (anti-smoking campaign), "Tobacco is a plant, people, and if it comes out of the ground, you should be able to smoke it!".

I Say/You Say — Political debate show hosted by husband-and-wife liberal-and-conservative team of Peyton Phillips ( Paul Ames) and Mary Phillips ( Jackie Hoffman), likely inspired by James Carville and Mary Matalin, two real-life political advisers who began dating while working for the 1992 Presidential campaigns of Bill Clinton and George H. W. Bush, respectively. Peyton and Mary are caricatures of their ideologies: Peyton is extremely liberal, and Mary is a hardcore conservative. For example, when dealing with a caller that had recently buried the corpses of numerous illegal immigrants in his backyard, Mary advises the caller on how to use the corpses to legally get a tax break while Peyton mentions recycling and organ donation. Early shows feature a desperate Lazlow looking for a radio job, asking if he can take Peyton's.

Lonely Hearts Show — Relationship advice program hosted by Christy MacIntyre (Sara Moon), featuring Fernando Martinez ( Frank Chavez) of Vice City fame who deviously takes over one show by setting Christy's car on fire and calling in to tell her to look out the window. Christy panics and runs out, only to be locked out of the station by Fernando who takes over and starts giving advice to callers. When Christy finally gets back into the studio her anger quickly melts into arousal after smelling Fernando's cologne. Fernando sees his chance and makes a move on Christy, and the two proceed to have sex while still live on the air. The station cuts the broadcast shortly after this point and the announcer acts like nothing has happened. Fernando also makes references to his time in Vice City, namely the reasons for why he was chased out of the city. Zero calls in early on, desperate to rid himself from celibacy, as does Jizzy B, hoping to promote his club.

Area 53 — A Coast to Coast AM spoof hosted by Marvin Trill ( Bob Sevra). Broadcasting from 'his trailer in the desert', Trill's main subjects are alien abductions and government conspiracies. Kevin Mitnick guests as a caller who says that he can launch nuclear missiles by whistling into a payphone. This is a reference to an allegation used by prosecutors to keep Mitnick in solitary confinement. He also says that he now only uses his powers for good (as the real Kevin Mitnick now runs a security consulting company). Adam First (Jamie Canfield), the DJ from Vice City's Wave 103 also calls the show to tell him that he saw a man dressed in a space suit mating with Domestobots, to which Trill replies,"Uhh...He probably wants you to leave him alone," implying that it was Trill himself. Later in the same show, an actual Domestobot calls in to tell him that he knows what Trill is doing to his Domestobot brothers and sisters. The Truth also calls in, but is ridiculed by Trill. The first segment of Area 53, Trill ends his show by saying "Be careful out there, wherever you are". In the second Area 53 segment (while CJ is in San Fierro) the four callers in the middle of the show (Mike, Vyvyan, Neil and Rick) share the names of the four main characters of BBC sitcom The Young Ones. At the end of the segment, the announcer says " You are now leaving Area 53. Check your rectum." On 26 December 1999, Marvin made a website (viewable in Grand Theft Auto IV - area53site.com) announcing that he is shutting down the show to "protect his research". He also states that Y2K is very real. He then goes on to say that 10-years from 26 December 1999, he will re-emerge and start a new radio show.
