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.
This is a late Eighties / early Nineties kind of American AOR, smooth and crystal clear. The album starts off strong with a very GIANT-like guitar intro opening the first track and a serious WHITEHEART rhythm.

These are truly the ultimate AOR reissues in both sight and sound! When White Heart hit the scene in 1982, they took their cues from Petra, DeGarmo & Key, Toto, Reo Speedwagon, Chicago, Foreigner, Night Ranger, and Bon Jovi (on Hotline) for three albums.
Mark Mangold (keys, DRIVE, SHE SAID, AMERICAN TEARS) finally did it: he reunited the original line up of TOUCH for a new album, “Tomorrow Never Comes“. TOUCH was one of the first Pomp AOR bands and their self-titled debut LP is a must have.

Fans of Van Halen, Idle Cure, Journey, later period Sweet Comfort Band, and Petra would lose their minds as the band toured and dominated both radio and CCM sales charts. The 1986 sophomore release, Virtues would build on the band’s strengths – melody, harmony, and massive hooks!
