Good question. I'd have different answers if it's referred to 1977... or 1979... or 2003.
I bought some Deluxe editions thru iTunes. They labeled the Tango album as rock genre. Mirage as pop. Tusk and BuckVie as rock. So I guess they don't know either.

I've had that same doubt for years about Eagles, David Bowie, Kiss and Queen. I read in their Wikipedia pages that many bands are labeled (among other genres) as "pop rock", like Bon Jovi, Air Supply, Fleetwood Mac, Styx, Annie Lennox, and The Carpenters.

It's a fairly large gray area. There used to be a radio station named "Z Rock&Pop". They included most of the bands and singers I like, so it didn't complicate things. Although I haven't listened to any radio (or even Spotify) for over 15 years.
