Turn Back

Toto

A harder, heavier pivot for the session masters. Aggressive guitars and massive drums replace the usual polish with a gritty, arena-ready intensity.

Find on Amazon

The one where the session kings of the 70s decided to actually rock out.

A high-octane, technically proficient display of arena rock power and session-musician precision.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The explosive drum fill that launches the bridge of English Eyes into a prog-rock frenzy.
The jagged, aggressive guitar riff of Gift With a Golden Gun that signals the band's heavier direction.
The sudden, lush vocal harmony stack that breaks the tension in the middle of Goodbye Elenore.
