Bio:

Toto is an American rock band formed in 1977 in Los Angeles, California. The band's current lineup consists of Joseph Williams (lead vocals), David Paich (keyboards, vocals), Steve Porcaro (keyboards), Steve Lukather (guitars, vocals), and Keith Carlock (drums). Bass player Nathan East is currently touring with Toto as a guest musician, as Mike Porcaro is too ill to tour. Toto is known for a musical style that combines elements of pop, rock, soul, funk, progressive rock, hard rock, R&B and jazz.David Paich and Jeff Porcaro had played together as session musicians on several albums and decided to form a band. David Hungate, Steve Lukather, Steve Porcaro and Bobby Kimball were recruited before their first album release. The band enjoyed great commercial success in the late 1970s and 1980s, beginning with the band's eponymous debut released in 1978. With the release of the critically acclaimed and commercially successful Toto IV (1982), Toto became one of the best-selling music groups of their era. They are best known for the Top 5 hits "Hold the Line", "Rosanna", and "Africa". Several changes to the lineup have been made over the years. In 2008, Lukather announced his departure from the band, and the remaining band members later went their separate ways. In the summer of 2010, Toto reformed and went on a short European tour, with a new lineup, to benefit Mike Porcaro, who had been diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and is no longer an active member of the band.The band has released a total of 17 albums, and have sold over 35 million albums to date. The group was honored with several Grammy Awards and was inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in 2009.

Album:

With this "TOTO - XX : 1977-1997" we complete here the TOTO's 4-disc Japanese Cardboard Sleeve miniLP replica reissue campaign (sold out), fully remastered."Toto XX: 1977-1997" was released to celebrate the band's 20th Anniversary, including previously unreleased songs from all eras, outtakes, and live tracks from the band's 20-year career.Among the highlights there's the brilliant AOR tune 'Goin' Home', recorded during Bobby Kimball's brief first reunion with the band in 1989, prior to the record company's decision to replace him with new lead singer Jean-Michel Byron.The song had later been recorded by Joseph Williams (co-written by him) and released on his 1997 album '3'.Another great tune - and I scratch my head wondering why it never was released before - is the big ballad "Right Part Of Me" recorded in 1984. With lead vocals perfomed by Kimball, an exquisite co-production by master Greg Ladanyi, and strings arranged by James Newton Howard / performed by the London Symphony Orchestra, this track easily could have been a hit in the mid-Eightes.It's great see that some older, previously unheard Toto songs have been finally released, like 'Mrs. Johnson', 'Love Is a Man's World' and 'Miss Sun' (all recorded in 1977) or the excellent 'Tale of a Man' (1979).If you want material from the more 'commercial' Toto era, the bright 'Last Night' (recorded in 1987), and 'In a Word' and 'Modern Eyes' (both from 1986) will make your day for your classic AOR needs.Additionally, we have some stupendous live recordings: the rocking take of "On the Run" is to die for, while the extended performance of 'Africa' captured at the Standard Bank Arena, Johannesburg, South Africa in 1997, is simply great.Your Toto collection isn't complete without "TOTO - XX : 1977-1997", a collection of previously unreleased great tunes. A must for the fans, and a fine slice of classic AOR for all aficionados to this genre.
