Editorial Reviews

Toto were formed in LA in the late 70's by a group of friends who were all much in demand session musicians. They went on to epitomise the classic American pop/rock sound of the 80's and 90's with hit albums and singles including Hold The Line, Africa, I Won't Hold You Back and the multi-Grammy winning Rosanna.2003 is the 25th Anniversary of the release of the band's eponymous debut album in 1978 and this CD has been recorded as part of the band's official celebration of that milestone. Live In Amsterdam was recorded in front of a fanatical crowd in 2003 during the world tour in support of their most recent album Through The Looking Glass. The set includes all their hits, tracks from the new album and live favorites.

4.0 out of 5 stars 25 years later ToTo is still explosive, January 21, 2006

I've been a ToTo fan since their inception in 1977. I was fortunate enough to see and hear them live in New Orleans during the 1985 Isolation Tour. After watching this live video and listening to the live cd I can see and hear the energy level in their music like it was still 1977. This is a powerful live performance that will leave you with a greater respect for their musical ability. These guys are some of the most respected players in the music industry and have been for a few decades. It's nice knowing that they are still performing and influencing the younger generation of apprentice musicians.

I hve all toto's cd's, seen them 2 times, and I'm from ct, where
the 3 brothers are from . This is a good live cd, the songs sound
crisp,clean,and yet raw , meaning theres a little edge to them but not to the point where your not listening to a toto cd, meaning the sound is great which you get when you listen to a toto cd. When I go to a concert I want the songs and sound to sound just like the cd I bought and when you see toto in concet thats just what you get. I liked the arrangements on the songs
the vocals were good but his voice sounded a little weak on a couple songs but I know he has a great singing voice . The playing is outstanding of course and this is a good cd if your a
toto fan, or just a music fan
