The guy singing lead, looks to me like Burton Cummings?

@@gregbutcher_musicplacecheck12he is bobby kimball

Bobby is one of my all time favorite male vocalists. Sadly I heard he has Dementia now.

@@sheabobiney8114 yeah, it’s a shame. He seems like a really friendly guy though

I love the old days when a few mixed history and music in a way we understood as nerdy history buffs or digging into the Alan Parsons Project album for Edgar Alan Poe

As young as they were in this video, they were all very experienced studio musicians by this time....

Yea Hungate wasn't really ever meant to be in a rock group.

totally agree!

"The press" understand jack s*** about anything it writes on. May it be music, technology, science, pop culture, economics, politics...

I've been a witness to a loser's doddle in The Telegraph, on Toto's Easter gig at Royal Albert Hall, in London. That guy, calling himself a music critic, wrote nothing about music, just criticised the band's outfits, in a very rude, degrading style. Some members shared it in Toto fangroups on Facebook - and I felt it shouldn't be left without a direct feedback. I spread an open letter all over the fangroups, shared it on my timeline and also sent it in comment to his vomit on The Telegraph. Here it is: "Dear Mr. McCormick, first of all, let us make something clear: it is your own social problem if you do not like Toto, or had an issue with them (or more), or you do not like their clothing style, but it is a basic rule in every profession that a critic of a certain field, should be UP TO THE POINT and CONSTRUCTIVE. I must announce with sadness and disappointment that you have not fulfiled any of the above mentioned criteria. According to your own determination of profession, you are a MUSIC CRITIC. Hence, one would think that you are paid for demonstrating a PROFESSIONAL review. Despite, what can the once-upon-a-time reader see? Almost nothing about music (maximum Steve Lukather's "hysterical" guitar play during While My Guitar Gently Weeps), the ballance engineering, the general atmosphere, the band members' performing skills or their contact with the audience: you keep going on about their dressing style, in a very rude style, what is more, you start with it, and you conclude your so-called review with a very hypocrite sentence. I am not intending to be rude, but to be honest, I am glad that you have not been sent to Marseille where Shem wore a tight cap, in which he looked like Lee Montague as Pietro di Bernardone in Zeffirelli's Brother Sun, Sister Moon (1972). In case you have seen the film as well, I do not want to consider how would you have described his outfit, nor how would he have reacted. At any rate, you must focus on points like: 1.) technical circumstances influencing the voice quality, 2.) whether the songs are played in tune, 3.) the band members' performing skills and their influence on the audience. These are the closest to a music critic's task. Concerning the outfits, it is rather suitable for a producer's overview. What you have done above, is like your employer refused you saying you had a hypocrite smile. But let us do not get involved into this particular question. The main thing is that your product is not even suitable as an overview because you keep chewing one rag all the time. Concerning your Twitter feedback on comments, writing "Being trolled by Toto fans" etc., is not worthy to an adult English gentleman. A normal, mature person considers and filters what to accept and what to refuse, and does not judge immediately. What is more, it does not look like you worked a lot with your so-called article. If it was a proper overview, not a one-track doddle, the readers would believe that you have put all your energy into it. Nor even the time for which you have been working as a music critic, saves you, because a properly experienced critic automatically aspires to be concise and humble. Reading my lines above, also think about your colleagues because the success of a press product, depends on every single member of the editorial. If you produce a proper, concise, impartial overview, that will keep the readers faithful and the editorial team satisfied and successful. To sum up, I would like you to practise more empathy, humility and awareness of work. Neither do forget that if I demonstrate the above mentioned queries, it does not mean that others do not think like this. Regards, Julia Orosz (Budapest, Hungary)"

Criticized for what!?!?

@@ZuccaEZagara Everyone's a critic, but when they reach the end of the line and can do no more, it will have been those shabbily dressed yanks who actually had a stage and an audience to perform to...

I gotta get me that track suit Bobby's wearing.

@@travissmith9592 😂😂😂 if Bobby can pull it off, I’m sure you can.

And Dave's Greek folkdancer outfit as well (OK, without a fustanella)!

Yeah it's like you know good food when you taste it like music. Same thing

❤

ushi

Yes Tonny ari

unless maybe it's guys like the billy idols and the stingos , the tubes, and the xtc's and the al di meola cd's, and arguably quite a few others as well, those things can 'ardly-be-beat, right?

The folks in charge of Rolling Stone magazine are also in charge of the RNRHOF. They never liked Toto, and even today, they never miss an opportunity to say something derogatory about them. There's no accounting for their taste.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a joke. They never cared about talent. Hell half the acts aren't even rock and roll. Its all about buzz and whats cool.

They got lost in Oz. Can't receive all the status offers. 😂 Seriously, they are a fanatic and one of a kind band. I played their vinyl until they wore out. Hold the line was best played on radio. Otherwise we who had the vinyl had the truest treasures.

@@TinkerBTea awesome! Would love to get them in vinyl! Will see what I can find. They are a class act all around and a great rock band!! 💕💪🎸🎤

Bobby Kimball looks just my brother in law! Lol. Pipes on that guy. Amazing.

👍🏻

And Bobby Kimball ? Principal vocalist.

@@lilianacasavilca9932 - YES, and Bobby Kimball. I revised my post. I thought I already added his name in the original posting, since I had already had known who the whole lineup were. My mistake....

Yeah, it's rediculous

missed all the Porcaro brothers

You´re totally right .It´s a brilliant song.

LMA UK totally agree!! A tidal wave in seconds only!! Genius!!

i love how luke's not going crazy yet it hits a sweet spot for me.. i feel that solo & that's what the magic of music is about

His guitar work on Boz Scaggs “Breakdown Dead Ahead” is just unreal. I’ve smashed many an air guitar on that song!

Steve has a great feel on guitar. He can shred when needed and play soulfully when needed. A master of his craft.

Conspiracy R Us did a lit video about St. George and that led me to this treasure ... and that keyboard and the drums were so good they got my attention.

同感です。 ファースト，セカンドは特に好きなアルバムです。

たしかラジカセのCMだったような？

全く同感です。 この曲が一番好き

Sharyl Gamble ....saludos desde lima peru...

only that one guy, from the saga band, of canada, sort of takes that magic and runs-with it, like nobody else can, that guy, i forget his name, but he's probably the best i've heard, man~ i'm thinkin' of that one song called 'framed' on the 1981 album called _worlds apart_ , that thing is arguably the greatest album of that century or even perhaps hundreds of years, largely owing to rupert hine having produced it, apparently, and it seems he played that band like few producers can ever do with any band , instrument or tape machine, man, and they weren't the only ones, but wow, when he was great he was the greatest~ the fixx were also another example of a band rupert got to create with, like no other producer ever could or would~~

EL MEJOR comentarios de KZfaq

Gracias "Sueltaunobueno Norway"....

Saludos paisano, Toto de lo mejor de todos los tiempos !!👍🏻👍🏻

Well put compadre.No one could’ve said it any better.

@@tonyroyal8449 estoy de acuerdo se les tiene que reconocer más, es decir darles un mejor lugar en la historia del rock, son masters of masters

asi es mi estimado, yo los escucho desde que inciaron, no creo que haya otro grupo que les llegue

From GT: "Since I met this band, the only thing I can say is that over time they have become better and better. They were the best session players in the world in the 80s, they collaborated with many stars of that time and they are the only band to win 6 grammys in one night. Even so, the industry never valued them as they deserve, perhaps because of their wide variety of styles, but what I have no doubt is that they were and continue to be one of the best bands in the world."

De la historia de ka Musica muy versatiles eso es lo que no les gusta a algunos criticos que definieran un genero en especifico lo cual nunca hicieron y el Mundo se Los agradece por tan Buena Musica Como decimos Los cubanos Los criticos a llorar al parque

@@robertoobregonvea5381 ninguno ,se les acerca foreigner pero no llega

Eran feos por eso xp

saludos

Temón.

the george harrisons, even with just that one track, namely 'i'd have you anytime', [and maybe a few other songs, to be fair], pretty much keep kickin' everyone's ass, over-and-over-again, it's definitely comical, but also magical, just how good that frickin' guy is on that particular track: the stars must've just align'd just right on that particular day or night in what, like , 1970? forgetaboutit~~ one can never touch that kind of magic, only be inspired by it, i reckon...

Just a brilliant drummer! Great style and quite unique. ❤❤❤❤

Hello how are you doing it’s nice meeting you here.

Las bandas infravaloradas no ganan grammys a mejor album del año y a mejor grabación del año.

Quizá si hubieran consumido un poco menos de droqa les hubiera ido mejor...

Es y será la banda más completa que habrá simplemente son los mejores nadie se les acerca pero ni un poco, tenía a los mejores músicos, compositores y eran los mejores sesionistas 🤙

Melanie

Dificil, revisando su discografia vas encontrando mas y mas temones, calidad, feeling, mucho rock y jazz...

@@fidorclatrowsky1983 imagínate esa banda con Paich, los Porcaro, Kimball, Lukater, Hungate que eran los primeros. Unos músicos TOP

te gusta dormir con almohadas o sin almohadas?

yah i appreciate the _stereo_ trip

Gustavo, Not the greatest support by the US division of their record label, or by radio. But these guys have been music gods in Japan for 40 years now.

"Roseanna" and "Hold The Line" are pretty well known too.

I know more songs

1982, 3 letters...MTV. All about popularity. I heard Hydra first and loved it.

great album, and this tune in particular, very memorable to me personally....great musicians. Bobby Kimball, such an underrated and forgotten great vocalist. Similar to the great Ronnie Hammond. Both gentlemen were two of the best of that generous.

Bobby kimball the best voice

Yes great voice!

So true, and I bought this 2nd Toto album… but watching this video now the mannerisms of Bobby when he sings seems so cringe-worthy… and David Paich (phenomenal talent though he is) always had the most goofy, dorky look on stage. I saw them twice live a long time ago now, but these days I'd rather just listen to their amazing recorded works without the visuals.

I got Steve Perry over Kimball all day. Not a contest.

His Voice is Toto...Best Area of Toto...

I do not agree my friend , but Joseph Williams, the best voice

Because they suck. It was only what, in the last two or three years that The Cure was inducted into the RnRHoF?

@@RussellLambeth the hall of fame is corrupt in so many ways

@@RussellLambeth Yeah the hall is a joke.

I can't hardly argue with you there and have no real inclination to do so, either.

There are lots of cool white men.

Maybe.

I wish that I have that drum set in my house. That would be worth more than a Maserati.
