Hard Rock Sleaze Glam AOR HEAVY
Album-oriented rock (abbreviated AOR) is an American FM radio format focusing on album tracks by rock artists. AOR evolved from progressive rock radio in the mid-1970s, using research and formal programming to create an album rock format with greater commercial appeal.
Melodic rock, split half and half with aggressive rockers (Best of you) and pop love songs. Had a lot of airplay with the classic ‘One way love’ back in 1979, which features one of my top ten guitar riffs from that year. ‘Best of you’ is another classic.

Mama’s Boys are an AOR/Hard Rock band from Ireland. If you are looking for the best of their CD’s pick up Power & Passion, Growing Up The Hard Way and Relativity. These are their most commercial sounding CD’s. Growing Up The Hard Way sounds like the AOR group Survivor and is very well produced. It is essential if you are an AOR collector so don’t miss out on this classic.

former member of early ’70s hard rock band Spooky Tooth would resurface later that decade with a major selling solo album and an all persuasive, soft rock, hit single ‘Dream Weaver’. It was a remarkable achievement and one that elevated Gary Wright to a new audience, allowing him the space to develop a solo career that continues to this day. Born in the USA, Wright moved to the UK and joined Spooky Tooth at the suggestion of Island records Chief Chris Blackwell.
