Toto has always been a favorite of mine. The first Toto song I remember hearing as a child was Rosanna at 6 years old. I couldn't believe my ears, it was pop perfection. in fact I remember begging my parents to hear it again and again and then one day, I'll never forget it, my dad came home with the record. I must've listened to it a hundred times in the first week.
I've had the unique privilege of interviewing Steve Lukather and David Paich 3 times and I have to tell you, it's always amazing when the picture you've painted of a band in your head over years of listening not only matches their live performance in concert but also lives up to who they are as human beings. Luke and Paich are two of the nicest guys in the industry. Not only two of the greatest songwriters and players in history, their also wonderful story tellers.
In all of the conversations i've had with these guys you can definitely feel the respect and admiration they have for one another. When they put together their blockbuster 1982 album an essential for any collection: TotoIV, they were locked in as a band. And although their number one hit Africa has become their most popular song across the generations and also inspired entire segments of pop culure
I' 've always felt that it was the second biggest hit from the album, the #2 classic Rosanna that set the bar. A bar so high that Eddie Van Halen remarked that Toto was "collectively the best musicians on the planet
