Out now!
The brand new edition of Classic Rock Presents AOR is on sale now – with a cover that celebrates KISS’ career in the 1980s.
Stumbling into the new decade, Kiss ditched their iconic make-up and changed tactics to survive the 80s.
In an epic 12-page feature, we tell how Paul Stanley led Kiss’ MTV revolution. Discarding founder members Ace Frehley and Peter Criss, the reinvented, reinvigorated band tore up the Top 40 with a string on AOR-friendly anthems including Reason To Live, Forever, Tears Are Falling and many more…
Also in AOR: a brilliant FREE CD titled Silk + Steel featuring 15 hot new melodic rock anthems, including tracks from UFO, Alfonzetti, Beggars & Thieves, Casablanca, Sencelled, De La Cruz, Sunstorm, Strangeways, The Magnificent…
Elsewhere in AOR:
Loverboy – Canada’s blue-collar rockers chart their long journey to the Rock’n’Roll Hall Of Fame.
Air Supply – AOR’s soppiest superstars swear they’re a rock’n’roll band, not just multi-platinum balladeers.
Mike Tramp – Arriving penniless in New York in the 70s, White Lion made Mike Tramp a rich man. But did success make him happy?
Christian AOR – Petra, White Heart, Stryper… We meet the bands who played AOR for the glory of God.
Mama’s Boys – Only bad luck and agonising tragedy could keep the brothers McManus from the big time.
Timothy B. Schmit – The Eagles/Poco bassist retraces his charmed life within West Coast rock’s highest echelons.
Little Angels – Reunited for Download, Jepson and co tell us how and why…
Spider – From South Africa via NYC and, bizarrely, Shanghai: a web of AOR intrigue is deftly spun.
Plus – features on Joe Lynn Turner, Backseat Sally, Dwight Twilley, Candy and Mark Spiro; new albums from UFO, The Morning After, Mr Big, Strangeways, One Man’s Trash, Drought and Lillian Axe; reissues from Jo Jo Gunne, Autograph and Gamma; live reviews of Def Leppard, Chickenfoot, Reckless Love, Bryan Adams and Paul Rodgers; Canadian AOR Buyers Guide featuring Triumph, Honeymoon Suite, Harlequin, Toronto…
All this and more in AOR issue No.6, on sale now.
