Discography

Line-up

The band's third album, Turn Back, marked a return to the classic sextet style of previous albums. It was a more powerful, consistent effort with a harder edge than Hydra. The edgier sound of Turn Back reflected the maturation in the group. Drummer Bobby Kimball's increased ability to play was evident in the vocal delivery of Joseph Williams, who had grown more confident and mature. David Paich's keyboard work was also more sophisticated, sharper and less akin to previous efforts.

After touring to promote their album, the group recorded an Amsterdam live show that was released on Eagle Records as a 2-CD set titled Falling In Between. The group released a brand new studio album a few months later and then embarked on a tour around the world to help promote it. In this time, keyboardist Greg Phillinganes replaced Paich and bassist David Hungate quit the group to spend time with his family.

In 1998, Paich and Lukather started exploring old demos and tapes in search of an album that would feature songs that had never been recorded before. It was completed in 2001 as a duo album called Then and Now. It was the band's first album that did not contain one single track titled "A". The album also contained an previously unreleased track "Kari-Anne".

By 2003, Toto had begun to decline in popularity. The group's fourth album, Old Is New was not a commercial success and 토토사이트 vocalist Williams was suffering from laryngitis, which affected his singing abilities. Additionally, 토토사이트 Hungate returned to Nashville and drummer Leland Sklar was replaced by Shem von Schroeck.

Downes and the other original members of Asia--Wetton, Palmer, and Howe--convened a meeting in England in early 2006 to discuss the possibility of formally reforming the group. The lineup, which was minus Howe (who was working with Yes at the time), eventually became known as Toto XIV and toured extensively.

In 2010, the band reunited for another reunion tour with a slightly different line-up, including guitarists Mike Porcaro and Steve Lukather, drummer John Pierce, bassist Shannon Forrest, and multi-instrumentalists Warren Ham and Dominique Taplin. The group also had an appearance by singer Michael McDonald, and a backing singer named Mabvuto Carpenter.
