Á Isolation eru popput løg sum 'Holyanna', 'Carmen', og 'Stranger In Town', men eisini rættiliga rokkut avrik, ið eru meira hardrokkur enn popprokkur. Broytingar høvdu verið framdar í bólkinum. Sangarin, Bobby Kimball, hevði fingið durafjórðingin og nýggjur í hansara stað var komin annar amerikanari, Fergie Frederiksen, oftast kallaður Fergie. Hann sang einans við á hesari Toto-útgávuni, umframt einari filmplátu við Toto-tónleiki. Talan er um heiðurstátt í Plátubarrini 30. november 2024, tí henda útgávan er 40 ár.  

Foreigner guitarist Bruce Watson was having a better hair day, finished his crisp white shirt with a black jacket (I'd intended to do in kind with mine, but I was rushing and couldn't get my cuffs through my sleeves), and surrounded himself with cool guitars and warm lights. Rockstar! I dig the cut of his jib. Almost as much as I appreciate how accessible, down-to-earth, humble, and lovely he is. Not a likely combination, but oh, so charming. And entertaining! What a great storyteller! Bruce took us through his extraordinary ancestry. The Watsons have been Valley Boys since the 1600s. Not! But they have been in America since then, in LA since the 1890s or so… likewise, his mother's people, from Cork. Great story there - how and why they got here. We got the skinny on where the passion started - The Monkees - Hey Micky - and Creedance- the dream - to be a rockstar - his first band, Eragon, that no one, including me, could say correctly, covering The Eagles and Zeppelin - hysterical day jobs, great stories there, his first big gig touring with Toto's Bobby Kimball, then Patty Smyth with Rod Stewart, then Rod hisself. Bruce, although not a “reader,” was getting lots of session work for film, TV, and commercials, one of which was producing a spot with B.B. King- what a poignant, moving story. Recording with a very young Christina Aguilera, her break out, What a Girl Wants, and just out of the box, Sara Bareilles' Love Song, through Bennett Salvay meeting composer W.G. Snuffy Walden, and giving them just what they needed for their Friday Night Lights, getting the call to fill in for an ill Mick Jones - a temp gig - Bruce was busy, enjoying session work, his home and his family, with no intention of touring - then getting extended… again and again… finally joining Mick and becoming a permanent member of Foreigner. The Rockstar young Bruce dreamt of being realized in full force and boy does he wear it well. A killer player, he's got the hair, the moves, and the clothes, and I got him to tell us where he shops. I wanna hit the stores with him. It's all about how he puts it together. Bruce Watson is all that… and a jumbo bag of Cheetos. Talent, looks, genuine sweetness, and fun. Rockers, please take note… you can reach the pinnacle, look amazing doing it, and still be a mensch. Be like Bruce!

This week we are talking about bands that have rock stars in them: Supergroups and Offshoots. Captain Content reminds us that a band consisting of well-known artists from other bands does not always equal great success. We dive into some of the more obscure supergroups and offshoots that didn't break with huge mainstream success or stay around very long.What is it we do here at InObscuria? Every show Kevin opens the crypt to exhume and dissect from his personal collection; an artist, album, or collection of tunes from the broad spectrum of rock, punk, and metal. This week we talk exclusively about Supergroups featuring famous solo artists and band members along with, Offshoots which are bands that contain the bulk of a previous incarnation of a famous band. We hope that we turn you on to something new.Songs this week include:Neurotic Outsiders – “Nasty Ho” from Neurotic Outsiders (1996)Thrasher – “Bad Boys” from Thrasher (1985)Heavy Bones – “4:AM T-M” from Heavy Bones (1991)Ultra Bomb – “Time To Burn” from Time To Burn (2022)Saints Of The Underground - “Tomorrow Never Comes” from Love The Sin, Hate The Sinner (2008)Mad Season – “Lifeless Dead” from Above (1995)Far Corporation – “Stairway To Heaven” from Division One (1985)Please subscribe everywhere that you listen to podcasts!Visit us: https://inobscuria.com/https://www.facebook.com/InObscuriahttps://x.com/inobscuriahttps://www.instagram.com/inobscuria/Buy cool stuff with our logo on it!: https://www.redbubble.com/people/InObscuria?asc=uIf you'd like to check out Kevin's band THE SWEAR, take a listen on all streaming services or pick up a digital copy of their latest release here: https://theswear.bandcamp.com/If you want to hear Robert and Kevin's band from the late 90s – early 00s BIG JACK PNEUMATIC, check it out here: https://bigjackpnuematic.bandcamp.com/Check out Robert's amazing fire sculptures and metal workings here: http://flamewerx.com/

Toto's Joseph Williams Live on Game Changers with Vicki Abelson Hold the line! What a way to reenter this arena - with arena rockstar Joseph Williams of Toto! I had the best time - can't stop smiling. Joseph could not have been more accessible, personable, humble, willing, thoughtful, informative… entertaining, and warm––like a fuzzy blanket on a cool summer night. Just loved every minute. I watched quite a few interviews with Joseph to get to know him a bit before sitting down with him. All that I saw were centered around the music of Toto and Joseph's solo work––the songs, the musicians, the concerts. Fascinating! I wanted to know about the kid, the son, the man, the artist, the vocalist, the composer, who thrived, who struggled, who acted out, who cleaned up, and that's exactly what generous Joseph gave us, no holds barred, no lines held, as it were. From his earliest days with his dad, John Williams, making genius in the other room, his actress-singer mother, Barbara Ruick, turning life into songs, he and his siblings performing on cue for their parents' esteemed party guests, and forming their first band, together, picking up his first drink, finding mischief, getting busted, breaking bones, boarding school leading to his first gig… jingles, Vegas, Star Search - one story better than the last - to auditioning for Toto - how he got it, what it meant - how he lost it - what he did to ensure that it would never happen again - composing, scoring- working with a guy named Snuffy, guesting with Toto and Bobby Kimball, rejoining the band in 2010, now he and Lukather the two remaining old guard… full circle - still touring - and miraculously still a Novid! I easily could have chatted with Joseph for hours more. Can't wait till September to see Toto at The Hollywood Bowl and to celebrate Joseph's 64th birthday. He's sober, a grandpa, a good son, making great music, and living his dream. He's honored his legacy. Bravo! Standing O! Joseph Williams Live on Game Changers with Vicki Abelson Wednesday, June 5, 5 PM PT, 8 PM ET Streamed Live on my Facebook Replay here: https://bit.ly/4aNmOKJ

Bill Champlin was born in Oakland, California on May 21, 1947 to a musical family. His grandparents, mother and sisters have all been singers. After forming the Sons of Champlin in 1967, he focused his songwriting talents on material for the Sons. “They were breathing fire. They were the most talented of all the San Francisco bands”, said Mickey Hart of the Grateful Dead. The Sons' first album, “Loosen Up Naturally,” was released in 1969 and followed by six more albums before the Sons disbanded in 1977. After the breakup of the Sons, Bill moved to Los Angeles and worked as a session vocalist on numerous recordings from 1977 to 1985. The artists he worked with included Patti LaBelle, Lou Rawls, Elton John, Boz Scaggs, Donna Summer, Nancy Wilson, George Benson,  Jimmy Smith,  Amy Grant, Neil Diamond and Kenny Rogers. In 1978 he released his first solo album, “Single.” In 1979 he won his first Grammy award for co-writing “After the Love is Gone,” which was later recorded by Earth, Wind & Fire. During the Chicago/EWF tours in 2004 and 2005, Champlin was asked to perform this song with them, as lead singer. In 1982 he joined Chicago to record “Chicago 16.” His unique and expressive voice can be heard on “Hard Habit to Break” from Chicago 17. Bill's 1988 recording of the song “In the Heat of the Night” was picked up as the show opener by the TV show of the same name. The following year Chicago released what turned out to be it's biggest-selling single and their last No. 1 hit, “Look Away,” once again with Bill on lead vocal. Four more solo albums followed from Bill's fertile mind: “Burn Down The Night” (1992), “Through It All” (1994), “He Started To Sing” (1995) and “Mayday” (1996). In July 1997 Chicago topped the adult contemporary chart with “Here in My Heart,” as the band once again turned to Bill for lead vocals. That same year also rendered the release of  “West Coast All Stars,” an a cappella project he did with Jason Scheff of Chicago and Toto's Bobby Kimball and Joseph Williams. The Sons of Champlin reunited in 1997, with a loyal group of enthusiastic fans traveling great distances to see them perform. They recorded “Live At The Luther Burbank Center” in 1998, as well as “Secret” (CD and DVD) and “Hip Lil' Dreams” in 2002. Bill's solo release “No Place Left To Fall” (CD and DVD), recorded at The Barber Shop Studios in Hopatcong, NJ for the Dream Makers Music label. It was first released by JVC Japan in September 2008, as well as being released for digital downloading, and later released in Europe by Zync Music in December. The U.S. release by Dream Makers came in August 2009. On the heels of that US release and after 28 years with Chicago, Bill parted ways with the band to focus more on his solo career. “This music is callin' me,” he said.

I bet this isn't even Rosanna Arquette's favourite Toto song. Covers by: Frankfurt Rock Orchestra with Bobby Kimball, Emmerson Noguiera,  Bonfire, Rich Wetzel & Groovin' Higher, Kaiak Tidal playlist here

Yes, you are right - Toto IV was released in March of 1982, not April of 1985.  However, the rock group Toto was a celebrity phenomenon in 1985, particularly in Japan.  In April of 1985 MTV broadcast a special episode showcasing a Toto concert from Japan.Toto IV was both a commercial and critical success.  Three of the singles would be top 10 hits, and the album would achieve triple Platinum status as it became known as one of the best albums of the year.  Critically, the group would earn six Grammy awards including Album of the Year, and Record of the Year for the single “Rosanna.”The group would spend much of 1982 and 1983 on tour, though there would be some changes in personnel.  Bassist David Hungate left the group shortly after the release of Toto IV, sensing that the success of the album and the fame of the group would negatively impact time with his family.  Lead singer Bobby Kimball was in and out of court fighting prosecution on drug-related charges.  Those charges would eventually be dismissed in late May 1983, but he would be released from the band after missing many recording sessions.The album is a soft-rock masterpiece, with balanced synth and keyboard sounds and soaring harmonies.  Songs have a jazzy feel, interspersed with piano-based ballads.Lynch has been lobbying for a long time to do this album, and we hope you enjoy it for this week's podcast. RosannaThe biggest hit from the album was often thought to be inspired by actress Rosanna Arquette who was dating keyboardist Steve Porcaro.  However, writer David Paich says the lyrics were based on various girls he had known in the past rather than a single individual.  The shuffle drum pattern is reminiscent of both Bo Diddley rhythms and John Bonham's groove on "Fool in the Rain."Make BelieveThis sunny-feeling single hit number 30 on the Billboard Hot 100.  It describes a time of looking back with an old lover, remembering the moments they shared.  It was the second US single from the album.  David Paich wrote the song, and Bobby Kimball is on lead vocals.I Won't Hold You BackThe piano-oriented ballad peaked at number 10 on the Billboard Hot 100, and held the number 1 spot on the US Adult Contemporary chart for three weeks.  It looks back on a failed romance as the singer lets go of what he had.  Guitarist Steve Lukather takes lead vocals duties for this track, and Eagles alumnus Timothy B. Schmidt provides backing vocals in the chorus. AfricaWhile this song did well as a single, it has grown into a cultural icon.  It did top the Billboard Hot 100 in 1983, but would see a resurgence in popularity over time, particularly after Weezer's cover in 2018.  The lyrics depict a man struggling between his love for the continent and returning to his relationship elsewhere.  ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Main theme from the motion picture “Ladyhawke”This fantasy movie starring Rutger Hauer, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Matthew Broderick hit the big screen in April of 1985. STAFF PICKS:Walking on Sunshine by Katrina and the WavesWayne starts us off with a popular and optimistic song that got the band Grammy-nominated for Best New Artist.  It is off their debut and eponymously named album.  It was first released in Canada, though the band was out of England.  It went to number 9 on the Billboard Hot 100.Summer of '69 by Bryan AdamsBruce brings us this well-known song from Adams' album "Reckless," which was released in April of 1985.  The original name was going to be "Best Days of My Life," and in the first draft the lyric "summer of '69" only appeared once.  With the name change, "Summer of '69" replaced several appearances of the phrase "best days of my life," in the track.High On You by SurvivorRob's staff pick is an ode to the intoxication and infatuation of new love.  It is the first top 10 single from their album "Vital Signs," and arose from a jam during touring sound checks.  Mickey Thomas from Jefferson Starship and Peter Wolf from the J. Geils Band are supporting musicians on this track.Silent Running by Mike + the MechanicsLynch finishes the staff picks with a synth-heavy song with science fiction lyrics.  The singer is a father who has journeyed into the future and is now communicating back to his son with instructions for mitigating the coming war and catastrophe.  This is the first single released by Mike + the Mechanics, and it went to number 6 on the Billboard Hot 100. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Moments In Love by Art of NoiseThis largely instrumental piece is a signature song from the art rock group.

Steve Porcaro Live on Game Changers with Vicki Abelson I loved every second with 3x Grammy Winner, founding member of Toto, Steve Porcaro. A down-to-earth sweetheart of a guy who just happens to be one arm of the iconic legendary musical Porcaro family. These ain't no lip-sinking, TV frontmen, the Porcaros define chops. World-renowned drummer, Joe, who left sticks and skins around, brother Jeff, who picked them up and banged them to new heights, Mike who segued to bass, and Steve who found his passion and his niche with keyboards, programming, and sythns. Separately, and together they made musical history. We talked beginnings influences, The Beatles, Keith Emerson, from playing school proms to clubs with David Paich, Hungate, and Lukather, to Boz Skaggs to Toto, Bobby Kimball, Hold The Line, Rosanna, Arquette, and the song, success fulfilling all childhood dreams and then some. Sessions and side work for all of them, Bette Midler, Chaka, Earth, Wind & Fire, Quincy Jones, which led to Micheal Jackson and Human Nature on Thriller, thrilling! There was James Newton Howard, playing and scoring for film and TV… Justified. Leaving Toto, rejoining Toto with new appreciation. Drugs, alcohol, and loss took their toll, solo work, Someday/Somehow, collaborations, Allee Willis, writing with his daughters, The Covid Kid, doing what he loves, where he loves. A life well being lived and art continuously created. I really really like this man, and his music. Grateful for this opportunity to get to know.

I avsnitt två an "miniserien" album-som-förändrade mitt liv handlar det om TOTO och plattan "Isolation". Det var uppföljaren till monstersuccén "TOTO IV" och pressen var enorm på bandet. Inte blev det bättre av att man behövde kicka originalsångaren Bobby Kimball innan inspelningen. Och för Stefan blev skivan vägen in i kärleken till AOR och amerikansk radiorock - väl investerade 74.50 kronor på Domus, Avenyn i Göteborg.

His career began in earnest when a young John Elefante auditioned as the new lead singer and keyboardist for Kansas, in 1981. That year, the band was one of the top-grossing concert acts in the world and Elefante had never been in a band apart from his family. Although several of the top vocalists of the day applied for the job (e.g. Sammy Hagar, Doug Pinnick, Jim Stafford), Elefante received the part.Elefante sang the lead vocals and performed keyboards on two Kansas albums. He was also a major songwriting contributor (along with lead guitarist/keyboardist/songwriter Kerry Livgren). On 1982's Vinyl Confessions, he co-wrote and sang the No. 4 Billboard Mainstream Rock hit, "Play the Game Tonight". He also wrote the acoustic-based classic "Chasing Shadows", along with the Top 40 single, "Right Away". The next year, on the following album, Drastic Measures, he wrote the early MTV favorite, "Fight Fire with Fire", which remains the band's highest charting single at No. 3 (Mainstream Rock) as well as a staple of Kansas' live shows to this day. Elefante was also responsible for "Everybody's My Friend," which was released as the second single from the album and reached No. 34 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart.Around this time the band began to buckle under the increasing strain of maintaining the consistent radio hits and record company commercial expectations. In addition, contemporary pop music was quickly becoming antithetical to the band's organic, sophisticated aesthetic. A new age of sequenced synthesizers and drum machines confronted Kansas with the near-impossible challenge of maintaining their musical essence and commercial integrity. In 1984, on the retrospective collection The Best of Kansas, Elefante wrote the album's one new track, "Perfect Lover". That same year Elefante, Kerry Livgren, and Dave Hope left Kansas.In 1985, "Young and Innocent" appeared on the soundtrack to St. Elmo's Fire and was credited to "Elefante" as a collaborative effort by brothers John and Dino Elefante.1985–1989Elefante discovered another calling while still with Kansas—record producer. In 1984, he produced Perfect Timing for ground-breaking Southern California group, Sweet Comfort Band. While not a major commercial success, Petra's Back to the Street was a Grammy-nominated, breakthrough, commercial success for both Elefante and the band. He also contributed songwriting, keyboards, background vocals and engineering to the effort.With both John and Dino Elefante as the band's primary producers, Petra's already popular Christian pop/rock niche was given a timely boost. Their accolades include multiple gold albums, 10 consecutive CCM Magazine Reader's Choice Awards, induction into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame and Hard Rock Cafe, and the only artist to ever have four albums in the SoundScan top-100 Christian chart.In 1987 while producing a various artists album called California Metal, the album's production team of John and Dino Elefante ended up one track short and they decided to add a song written for Kansas called "Wasn't It Love" (originally entitled "What About Love") under the name Mastedon. Regency later requested a full-length album which became Mastedon's debut, It's a Jungle Out There.Closing out the decade, Elefante had produced five major label albums, and performed on 12. Over the next five years, Elefante worked at an almost frenetic pace as one of the most in-demand producers in Nashville. In addition to Petra's further releases, he worked as the producer on 30 other albums. He usually performed on the releases as well, often sharing songwriting credits, as well. Elefante was committed to his role as producer, eschewing other opportunities such as an offer to replace Bobby Kimball as lead singer for Grammy winners, Toto.

Robby's vocals and signature electric violin come through on this continuous work labeled a “Prog Opera”. The album, produced by our guest today, Michael Franklin, is his latest production since the highly acclaimed Jon Anderson 1000 Hands Chapter One.

Steinhardt was in a reborn state of mind in the months prior to finishing the record. He and wife Cindy were looking forward to a new chapter in their lives. He had started rehearsals and was preparing to hit the road in August when he became ill in May. Robby's musical vision, voice and violin lives on with his first and only solo album, Not in Kansas Anymore! Release was delayed due to Steinhardt's passing July 17, 2021.

Ep. 140: Leslie Mandoki, "Music is the greatest unifier.." Let's Talk Off The Podium with Tigran Arakelyan. In this episode rockstar Leslie Mandoki talks about his early years in Hungary, being a refugee in Germany and eventual rise to stardom. In 1991, Ian Anderson, Jack Bruce, and Al Di Meola became founding members of Leslie Mandoki’s band project ManDoki Soulmates, and for almost three decades, Leslie Mandoki has continued to unite a “who is who” of the icons of Anglo-American and European rock and jazz- rock in the Mandoki Soulmates band. The remarkable lineups in the band’s recordings and performances over the years has included singers and players including Ian Anderson, Jack Bruce, David Clayton-Thomas, Chaka Khan, Chris Thompson, Bobby Kimball and Steve Lukather, Nick van Eede, Eric Burdon, Nik Kershaw, Greg Lake, Al di Meola, Randy and Michael Brecker, Cory Henry, Bill Evans, John Helliwell, Till Brönner, Klaus Doldinger, Mike Stern, Richard Bona, Anthony Jackson, Victor Bailey, Pino Palladino, Tony Carey, Mark Hart, Paul Carrack, Peter Frampton, and Jon Lord. The Soulmates concerts are marked by the musical synergy of all these musical icons united in one supergroup of Grammy award winning legends, where everyone’s egos come second. Original Soulmates compositions and collective improvisations on highest levels are just as much part of the concerts as world-renowned hits of the individual Soulmates members. “One stage – one band!” With his Soulmates Leslie Mandoki raises Jazz-Rock back to socio-political relevance, to quote him in his own words: “Even in times of Twitter, social media and short news on the smartphone, when mental laziness often blocks the perception, music for us is still like a love letter to our audience – handwritten with ink on paper.” This band is pure sophisticated JazzRock, or as Greg Lake (Emerson, Lake & Palmer) put it: “One of the best bands you will ever hear!”

"Für uns Künstler gibt es zwei Dinge, die man nicht in Quarantäne sperren kann. Das eine ist Kreativität, das andere Verantwortung." 350 Millionen verkaufte Alben, 35 Grammys, das ist die Summe der Mitglieder der Soulmates, die Rockmusiker und Produzent Leslie Mandoki regelmäßig im Studio und auf der Bühne begleiten: Bobby Kimball, Sänger von Toto, gehört dazu wie Chris Thompson von Manfred Mann´s Earth Band oder Ian Anderson von Jethro Tull. Gemeinsam haben die Soulmates übers Internet einen Song aufgenommen, der weltweit Danke sagen soll an alle, die in Coronazeiten anderen Menschen helfen. Darüber spricht Leslie Mandoki in der aktuellen Folge und darüber, was wir aus der Krise für die Zukunft der Menschheit lernen können und sollen.

Toto es una banda de rock estadounidense formada en 1978 en Los Ángeles compuesta por destacados músicos de sesión.? Fue fundada por el teclista David Paich y el baterista Jeff Porcaro. La agrupación combinaba diferentes estilos musicales, como blues, funk, Soul, pop y distintas corrientes de rock.Han vendido más de 40 millones de discos, de los cuales: 13 son de estudio, cinco en directo, una banda sonora (Dune) y un trabajo compilatorio que cuenta con cuatro canciones inéditas.El grupo obtuvo seis Premios Grammy en su 25.ª edición en 1983 con el álbum Toto IV,? que incluye canciones como Africa y Rosanna. Tras el éxito comercial de este disco, los músicos de la banda fueron contratados por Michael Jackson y Quincy Jones para tocar en la producción más vendida en la historia de la música: Thriller.Paralelamente a la carrera de Toto, sus integrantes han tocado en miles de discos, Jeff Porcaro (baterista) registra más de 1050 álbumes —pese a su prematura muerte siguen apareciendo grabaciones suyas,? Steve Lukather (guitarrista) más de 1530,David Paich (tecladista) más de 1720; mientras que Steve Porcaro (segundo teclista) más de 660,y Simon Phillips (exbaterista que reemplazó a Jeff Porcaro) más de 660.Frente a esto no es exagerado decir que gran parte del sonido pop/rock de la década de los ochenta fue generado por los músicos de la banda.? Sin embargo, pese al éxito mundial y a la notable contribución de la agrupación a la industria musical, el guitarrista y líder Steve Lukather es categórico en señalar que la banda es "la más incomprendida en el mundo"? debido a las críticas negativas que ha tenido en el transcurso de los años en los medios estadounidenses e ingleses, Algunas de las tesis que surgen en torno al rechazo que ha generado la banda en los medios estadounidenses e ingleses, especialmente VH1,y Rolling Stone,es por el nombre de la agrupación al carecer de una propuesta estética en un período musical en el que la apariencia muchas veces primó,y otra es que los especialistas en música en estos medios jamás han concebido ni han aprobado que una agrupación mezcle tantos estilos musicales como lo hace Toto.En la misma línea, pero a favor de la propuesta musical de Toto, se encuentran algunos músicos, como Steve Vai, que dijo una vez que fue a verlos a Milán: "Esta banda creó un sonido propio y único. Es la perfecta mezcla de rock, pop, fusión y un poco de jazz, todo en un paquete totalmente armonizado", o Eddie Van Halen, que se refirió a la agrupación como "colectivamente, compuesta por los mejores músicos del planeta".En sus más de 40 años de carrera tuvieron más de diez formaciones,? que han variado según la gira promocional del álbum. El único músico que ha participado en todas es Steve Lukather, mientras que Paich y Lukather han estado en todas las grabaciones de los discos. El puesto más inestable ha sido el de vocalista: Bobby Kimball (1978-1984/1998-2008), Dennis Frederiksen (1984-1986), Joseph Williams (1986-1989/2010-presente), Jean-Michel Byron (1990-1991) y Steve Lukather (1991-1998) han estado en él.La banda se disolvió en el año 2008, pero volvieron a reunirse en 2010 a beneficio del bajista Mike Porcaro, que sufrió la enfermedad de esclerosis lateral amiotrófica y que le imposibilitó de seguir tocando,? Los destacados bajistas de sesión Leland Sklar, Shem von Shroeck, Nathan East y David Hungate, primer bajista del conjunto que volvió en 2014, han reemplazado a Porcaro, pero ninguno de ellos como miembro oficial de la banda. El 24 de enero de 2014, el baterista Simon Phillips anunció su separación con Toto para dedicarse a sus propios proyectos.Su última formación estuvo integrada por Steve Lukather, Joseph Williams, Steve Porcaro y David Paich, y sus músicos de acompañamiento eran Shem von Shroeck en el bajo, Shannon Forrest en la batería, Warren Ham en los coros y en el saxofón y Lenny Castro como percusionista. Lanzaron un último disco de estudio llamado, Toto XIV, que salió a la venta el 24 de marzo de 2015 en Estados Unidos a través de Amazon.

Hier rocken die Bands von Daheim!

Viel Spaß!

**Isolation** (1984) es el quinto álbum de estudio de la banda de rock **Toto**. Este fue uno de los dos álbumes de la banda con Dennis Frederiksen como principal vocalista (el otro es el de la banda sonora de la película Dune). Frederiksen cantó siete de los diez temas del álbum, sustituyendo a Bobby Kimball, el vocalista habitual de Toto, mientras la banda estaba en pleno proceso de grabación del disco. Kimball cantó en algunas de las canciones antes de la terminación del álbum, pero distintas fuentes difieren sobre el número real, ya que Kimball habla de "la mayoría del álbum", mientras que David Paich y Steve Lukather dicen que sólo 3 o 4 canciones. La voz de Kimball se puede escuchar en los coros del sencillo "Stranger In Town". Isolation no alcanzó la popularidad de su predecesor, Toto IV, aunque logró llegar a disco de oro y situarse en el puesto 17 de los mejores álbumes de 1984. Pocas canciones de este álbum se tocaron en directo en 1985 en el Isolation World Tour. De "Lion" se grabó una maqueta (demo) con Kimball en la voz principal, antes de ser grabada con Frederiksen.

In the mid to late 1980’s, if it was a Tuesday night at the Baked Potato in North Hollywood, it was Los Lobotomys night. The original band, an offshoot of David Garfield’s band Karizma, consisted of some of the best musicians in L.A., included Jeff Porcaro, Lenny Castro, Nathan East, Brandon Fields, Steve Lukather and David Garfield. Lines formed outside the Spud’s door with fans who wanted to experience the band’s instrumental rock, jazz fusion and be-bop. However, the Lobotomys’ door was always open and many guests appears with them throughout the years, including Carlos Vega, Joe Sample, Vinnie Colaiuta, David Sanborn, Gregg Bissonette, Sheila E., Marcus Miller, Larry Carlton, Slash, Pat Travers, David Paich, Bobby Kimball, Alex Acuña, Chad Wackerman and many others. Fast forward to 2018 and the band is still going strong and has reinvented its lineup. With a new album on the way, Los Lobotomys is back as version 3.0 and consists of its founder, David Garfield, along with Lenny Castro on percussion, John Peña on bass, Chad Wackerman on drums and the latest addition, guitarist Doug Bossi. Inside MusiCast is pleased to welcome back our old friend David Garfield and guitarist Doug Bossi.

El témpano tal vez sea una de las canciones más famosas del Rock Nacional, y una de las cuales apuntaló la carrera de Juan Carlos Baglietto. Pero su autor, contrario a la creencia general, no es el genial Juanca sino Adrián Abonizio, otro miembro de la Trova Rosarina. Adrián nos cuenta una anécdota única sobre este tema, gran hito tanto en su vida como en la de todos nosotros. Además, Hugo Bistolfi, histórico tecladista de Rata Blanca, nos cuenta cómo ingresó a la banda de Bobby Kimball, voz de Toto. Y palpitando el Día del Niño, el grupo venezolano El Taller de los Juglares toca una versión muy especial de Lucy in the sky with diamonds y escuchamos a María Elena Walsh.

Episode #26 After the Success of working with Boz Scaggs, Steely Dan, Seals and Crofts, and a host of other successful acts, Jeff Porcaro and David Paich wanted a band of their own. The new band was made up of mostly high school buddies that had played together in a group called 'Still Life' at Grant High School in Van Nuys.
