Toto Album: “Super Hits”

Good songs, super even, as usual from Toto, but there are only a few hits, accompanied by quite a lot of relatively insignificant tracks. Don't waste your money on this - the 'Past to present' compilation, though not perfect, is a far better example of Toto's best work and covers most of their hits.

What a joke. "Live For Today", really? Obviously Toto had nothing to do with this release. 10 songs from a band that at the time was around for 20 years and over 10 albums is very sad. There are better greatest hits discs in the Toto arsenal than this. Your best bet is to pick up Toto IV, Tambu, Fahrenheit, The Seventh One, XX, and Mindfields for a good cross section of Toto. This amazing band cannot be shoved into a 60 minute CD. It doesn't do them justice. While Rosanna, Africa and Hold the Line are obvious masterpieces, the lesser know hidden material (Tambu in particular) really reflect the talent and mastery of Toto.

Toto was one of the most under-rated and over-criticized bands of the 80's. Never mind the fact that they won a ton of grammys for "Africa" and the Toto IV album. Critics loved to say they were just a studio band, and that they were sterile and banal. Ha! Just listen to their hits---"Africa," "Hold the Line," "I Won't Hold You Back," "Make Believe," "Rosanna," "99", etc., etc. They are an extremely creative and tight, and gave us songs that will last much longer than the current fluff saturating the market. Toto is a great band and this collection of their super hits is top notch!

This was perfect cuz it was a birthday gift for my sister. She loved it!! I call her "99" and there is a song on there that goes just for her.

An underrated group in my opinion.

The stand out track in everyone's minds is "Rosanna". And, we know the story of the song.

I really like several songs but my favorite is "99". I can listen to it over and over again.

If you are a fan of the group or just a song or some songs you will enjoy this CD.
