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.
TARGET, out of Memphis, Tennessee, was the first band to bring the great Jimi Jamison to a major label release (pre- Cobra). Target put out a pair of albums for A&M never officially released on CD. Thanks to Rock Candy Records, we are able to hear these great LP’s again, with their special remastered treatment. Target’s first album, the self-titled “Target”, includes two bonus tracks in this reissue.
