Much like my post 2 days ago about Duran Duran, a similar thing can be said. How can you choose one amazing song by Toto, when there were so damn many? Love songs and pop smashes, all of which soared the charts in the early 80’s. You know that anytime you meet someone named Rosanna, you hear Steve Lukather singing her name in your head. Admit it. And you KNOW you wish you knew about the rains down in Africa. Don’t even play. Here we have my first favorite by these guys, their late seventies foray into the limelight, for a band of guys who otherwise had been studio session players. Hold The Line, has amazing guitars and amazing vocals and a catchy hook with the synths. I crank it every single time I hear it. It’s not Africa or Rosanna, but it counts.
