Few ensembles in the history of recorded music have had a larger imprint on pop culture than Toto. The band took a page from their heroes The Beatles playbook and created a collective that features multiple singers, songwriters, producers and multi-instrumentalists led by guitarist Steve Lukather, keyboardist David Paich and drummer Jeff Porcaro. Toto’s parade of enduring, evocative singles started with their double platinum eponymous 1978 debut, a winning combination of superior musicianship, studio skills and innate melodic sensibility. Gold-certified 1979 follow-up Hydra exhibited a slightly harder edge while 1981’s polarizing Turn Back found the band clearly searching for their own distinctive sound. “Turn Back was our attempt at “arena rock” as we were starting to be pissed off that the Sony were putting out all the ballads and the softer side of us, like ’99’ etc,” notes Lukather. “It was an experiment. I think that there are some great tunes on the record, it sounds a bit strange and very different from our other records but I have very fond memories doing it.”
