Released in 1978, “Toto,” the debut studio album by the American rock band Toto, marked the beginning of their illustrious career. Featuring hit singles like “Hold the Line,” “I’ll Supply the Love,” and “Georgy Porgy,” the album garnered commercial success, with all three singles reaching the Top 50 in the USA. “Hold the Line” particularly stood out, spending six weeks in the Top 10 and reaching Number 14 in the UK. Despite initial lukewarm critical reception, Toto quickly gained a devoted following. The album’s distinctive sound, blending soft pop with synth and hard-rock elements, set the stage for the band’s evolution into deeper hard rock territory in subsequent releases.

Tracks

1. Hydra
2. St. George and the Dragon
3. 99

Hydra, Toto’s second studio album released in 1979, marked a departure from their debut success. Although reaching #37 on the Billboard Pop Albums chart, most singles failed to chart significantly. However, “99,” inspired by the sci-fi film THX 1138, defied the trend, peaking at #26 on the Billboard Hot 100. Guitarist Steve Lukather reflected on the album in 2013, expressing the band’s reluctance to replicate past success. Despite a rushed production, Hydra sold well. Lukather humorously noted Rolling Stone’s irony, critiquing the album for lacking the “magic” of the first while Toto followed their creative instincts, unswayed by external opinions.

2. English Eyes
3. Live for Today

“Turn Back,” Toto’s third studio album, debuted in 1981, showcasing the band’s dynamic musical prowess. Despite delivering the group’s inaugural top-ten hit in Japan and garnering steady sales in the country, the album faced commercial challenges globally. With no charting singles and approximately 900,000 copies sold worldwide, “Turn Back” fell short of the commercial success achieved by its predecessors. Despite this setback, the album remains a pivotal chapter in Toto’s discography, illustrating their diverse musical range and the ever-evolving nature of their artistic journey.

Toto IV, the fourth studio album by the American rock band Toto, achieved monumental success since its March 1982 release. Notably, the lead single “Rosanna” reached number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, while “Africa” secured the group’s first and only number 1 hit, topping the charts. The album garnered three Grammy Awards in 1983, including Album of the Year and Record of the Year for “Rosanna.” Toto IV climbed back into the top 10 in 1983 on both sides of the Atlantic, achieving widespread acclaim. It marked the last album with original bassist David Hungate until his return in 2014 and the final one with original lead vocalist Bobby Kimball until his comeback in 1998.

Released on October 18, 1984, “Isolation” stands as Toto’s gold-certified fifth studio album. Marking the debut of bassist Mike Porcaro and featuring Fergie Frederiksen as the primary vocalist, the album diverged from the massive success of its predecessor, “Toto IV.” Despite a comparatively modest reception, “Isolation” attained gold record status and produced the band’s highest-charting mainstream rock single, “Stranger in Town” (No. 7). Regrettably, the album’s tracks received limited exposure in live performances post the 1985 Isolation World Tour, highlighting a distinctive chapter in Toto’s prolific career.

“Fahrenheit,” Toto’s sixth studio album released in 1986, marked a significant chapter in the band’s evolution. Introducing Joseph Williams as the lead vocalist, the album witnessed the departure of former lead singer Fergie Frederiksen. Notably, keyboardist Steve Porcaro made his last appearance as a permanent member until Toto XIV in 2015. Despite initially falling short of gold status, the album garnered attention with top-forty singles “I’ll Be Over You” and “Without Your Love.” The former featured Michael McDonald’s backing vocals, while the music video included Paula Abdul. Notably, the album’s final track, “Don’t Stop Me Now,” showcased the legendary Miles Davis on trumpet.

Kingdom of Desire, Toto’s eighth studio album released in 1992, marked a pivotal moment in the band’s history. Notably, guitarist Steve Lukather took on sole lead vocal duties for the first time. Tragically, it also became the final album featuring drummer Jeff Porcaro, who passed away during rehearsals for the accompanying tour. Bob Clearmountain handled the album’s mixing, and it stands as a poignant tribute to Porcaro’s memory.
