Brit.

/ˌeɪəʊˈɑː/, U.S.

/ˌeɪoʊˈɑr/

Forms: 1900s– AOR, 1900s– A.O.R..

Origin: Formed within English, as an initialism. Etymons: English album-oriented rock, album-oriented radio.

Etymology: In sense 1 initialism < album-oriented rock (though also sometimes interpreted as adult-oriented rock : compare quot. 1980 at sense 1). In sense 2 initialism < album-oriented radio. Compare earlier MOR n. at M n. Initialisms 1.

1. Album-oriented rock, a type of popular music typically characterized by long, free-form album tracks rather than short, tightly-structured singles; esp. any of various styles in which a rock backing is combined with softer, more melodic elements and often vocal harmonies. Now frequently depreciative, with the implication of something slickly executed but bland.
