Disco de Toto: “Mindfields [Japan]”

THE BOYS ARE BACK, WITH THE REAPPEARANCE OF BOBBY KIMBALL WITH TOTO ON A STUDIO ALBUM FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 15 YEARS YOU KNOW IT IS GOING TO BE SPECIAL AND IT IS. FROM THE LUSH OPENER AFTER YOU'VE GONE RIGHT THROUGH TO SPANISH STEPS OF ROME (IMPORT VERSION) THIS IS A MUSICAL TOUR THAT CANNOT BE BETTERED ELSEWHERE. CHECK OUT THE ARRANGEMENTS AND SOUND ON CAUGHT IN THE BALANCE , THE CHORD CHANGES AND SEQUENCES OF BETTER WORLD. BUT MOST OF ALL THIS ALBUM ROCKS AND THE TUNES COULD EASILY BE TOP 40 SMASHES. IT IS A SHAME TOTO ARE NOT RECOGNISED BY RADIO IN THE STATES ANYMORE BUT LETS HOPE THEY CAN TURN THIS AROUND. SONGS LIKE CRUEL, MAD ABOUT YOU AND ONE ROAD ARE JUST SUMMERTIME RADIO HITS. FEEL GOOD MUSIC MADE BY THE BEST MUSICIANS AROUND. MY ADVICE IS FORGET THE REST AND BUY THE BEST TOTO. BY THE WAY NEW LIVE IMPORT ALBUM AVAILABLE ON 09/27/99.

Women love Toto too! I've been a huge Toto fan as long a I can remember and this CD is one of their best! I am lucky to get my Toto CD's from my brother in Germany and don't have to wait until the CD gets released here in the US (If at all.) I am surprised how much more popular Toto is in Europe and I wish they would get the recognition they deserve here in the US. Check out the live CD "Livefields", it's great, too!

After seeing TOTO in Denver at the Grizzly Rose, (The Best Band LIve in Concert I have ever seen), I immediately bought the Album on import. I have never done that before. Absolutely the most refreshing music Iv'e heard in a long time. Can't wait to see them again. Finally a group that doesn't play and sing a bunch of whining drudgery sounding boring music.

I just want to say this is the best CD from this band since the "kingdom of Desire" what can you say every song on this disc is great, Bobby sounds great, just saw them on July 10th in Atlantic City Hilton, and we were treated with the best show I have seen in the past 10yrs, I just want to thank my cousin Mike Porcaro for all his hospitality along with his wife Cheryl, and the guys in Toto, they rocked Atlantic City from the start to the finish, Atlantic City will never forget the best musical weekend in a long time, thanks for your space to write and god bless to Len Ventura, Robbie Leblanc, and to my boy Mike Webb, And againg to the Guys of Toto thanks, love you all Norm S.

Toto has consistently proven themselves to be quality musicians with every new album they produce. Their new 'Mindfields' album has taken their ability and talent to another level from track one to the final cut, it's cutting edge stuff. I've been a fan for many years and I always scramble to get my hands on a copy of each new CD. I honestly cannot set aside one particular track as a personal fave-they're all smokin'! I've never heard a more tight song than track seven 'Caught in the Balance.' Simply incredible! And to bring Bobby Kimball back to the studio was genius. I checked these cats out in May for their reunion concert and I didn't stop screaming until the end of their third encore. It was epic! If I had any influence on the program manager at the local top-40 radio station, I'd request they play 4 or 5 of these tracks. They are all worthy of airplay. I wish these guys could could hear the many positive responses from other Toto fans across the United States and make them a powerhouse here again as they were with Toto IV. I recommend the import version of this CD, with the bonus track 'Spanish Steps of Rome' written and performed by one very brilliant artist and member of Toto-David Paich. Check it out! It's versatile! It's emotional! It's electrical! These guys JAM!
