Discography

However, even though the group have a variety of musical backgrounds their biggest hit was in 1982 with Toto IV.

Line-up

The band’s third album, Turn Back, marked a return to the classic sextet arrangement of the previous albums. It was a more ferocious, consistent effort that had an edge that was stronger than Hydra.
