πŸ“– Key Information

Classic rock (later known as dad rock) is a radio format that developed from the album-oriented rock (AOR) format in the early-mid 1980s. In the United States, it comprises rock music ranging generally from the early-1960s to mid-1990s, primarily focusing on commercially successful blues rock and hard rock popularized in the 1970s–1980s AOR format. Classic rock's focus somewhat differs from the formats oldies (focusing on the more pop-oriented hits and earlier rock and roll of the 1950s–1970s) and classic hits (focusing on pop-oriented hits and pop rock of the 1970s–1990s).
