In the 1990s, Toto had shifted its focus to research and development of water-related household appliances.

They also performed on albums by Steely Don, Seals and Crofts and Sonny and Cher.

Discography

Although the band have a wide range of musical backgrounds their biggest breakthrough was in 1982 with Toto IV.

After Toto IV, the band's fortunes took a turn towards the negative. David Hungate left to concentrate on his solo career and the band went through several drummers. In 1984, Bobby Kimball was fired from the band in the aftermath of drug-related charges. However, the group continued to perform as a trio featuring Michael Porcaro and Steve Lukather.

Line-up

The album's third, Turn Back, marked an reversion to the classic sextet arrangement of previous albums. It was a stronger, more constant effort with a harder edge than Hydra. The more edgy sound of the album reflected the maturation of the group and featured drummer Bobby Kimball's improved proficiency on the drums, as well as an improved, mature vocal delivery by singer Joseph Williams. David Paich's keyboard work was also sharper, more complex and less akin to previous recordings.

After touring to promote the album, the band recorded a live concert in Amsterdam that was released as a two-CD set called Falling In Between Live on Eagle Records. The group released a new studio album a few months after and then embarked on a world tour promote it.

The group also had the appearance of singer Michael McDonald, and a backing singer named Mabvuto Carpenter.
