That was one of the last albums I got on vinyl in that era before I totally abandoned it for CDs, which I'd already slowly started collecting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh really? I have to say, I really was stunned by KoD. Never really rated it before but I thought, aside from two songs, it was sublime! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the only TOTO album where there's no "lead" singer, Lukather pretty much does it all and TOTO were just a four piece, Luke, Paich, Jeff P and Mike P and soon they were reduced to three. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are your fave songs? I have to say, I love The Other Side, Gypsy Train, the title track and Wings Of Time. The two skips are She Knows The Devil And Kick Down The Walls. Even their titles are lame. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah I forgot, they did the same four piece line-up (but with Simon Phillips) on Tambu, where Luke did most of the lead vocals as well. They had more backing singers on that one though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Tambu more. Every single song on that one is killer. I also think it's one of the best produced and mixed albums I've ever heard! I adore Mindfields as well but The High Price Of Hate sucks, take it out and its nothing but gems for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's something up with Mindfields, it's good and it was cool that they brought Bobby Kimball back, but it's like an album from an alternative universe or something that someone wished into this reality. There's something weird going on there. Also it's like TOTO wanted to be like The Beatles on that one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It used to be a low ranking album for me, but once I accepted that SOMETIMES it's okay to skip tracks, I came to greatly enjoy the material. Spanish Steps is an exceptional song. I'm still confused as to why it was a bonus track. I've also come to really enjoy Falling In Between, though it's got some embarrassing lyrics that bring it down for me a little. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 10 minute blues song should have been dropped I think and then they could have included it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is definitely one of my favourite Toto songs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then the next week no gradual shift. "OH my gosh BRILLIANCE!!!!!!!!" i scratched my head all day, lol. that's our boy. Mick 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll grab it eventually. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, it sits quite nice nicely next to my Judas Priest, Yes, Kansas, Alan Parsons Project, Enchant and Blue Oyster Cult box sets.

I think Bluefox is lying about Isolation and TOTO IV, they're absolutely his favourite albums of all time! And Turn Back is 3rd on his list! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
