The Band Toto Asia

Toto was expanding its production facilities abroad and operating in France, Germany, Indonesia, Korea, Taiwan, Thailand and the People's Republic of China. The company considered North America as a growth market for Washlet bidet seats and toilets, as opposed to its "base" markets of Japan and China.

Dhaniram Toto was recording Toto words to ensure the next generation would be able to read the words. However, many words were replaced with foreign ones, such as dui from Bengali for verandah.

Origins

The early history of Toto which began in 1917, was a reflection of Japan's economic growth. In the first half, Toto produced products to meet the growing demand 먹튀검증 사이트 (talking to) for modern, contemporary urban housing. To accomplish this, it employed the first tunnel kiln in the country that produced ceramics in a continuous flow. It also pioneered the use of automation to control production, allowing for more efficiency and consistency.

The company began expanding overseas in the latter part of the 1980s to take advantage of new markets and sales opportunities. It established the Cera Trading Company, importing and marketing other manufacturers' products to complement its own range of sanitary earthenware and plumbing fittings. This strategy helped increase sales and expand the market share of the company globally.

In the 90s, Toto began focusing on research and development of water-related appliances. It also upgraded its distribution system to better serve the needs of customers and boost profits. The company used the same approach of just-in-time in its supply chain management and sales program. This resulted in a higher level customer satisfaction.

Toto continued to innovate toilet technology. Its latest toilet, for example is equipped with a strong tornado flush that is more ecologically friendly than traditional toilets. The company uses recycled water in its manufacturing process and has a green buying policy. Toto also produces faucets, bathtubs and hand dryers with greater energy efficiency than standard models.

In a separate gallery you will find Toto products that are sold throughout. The museum even includes a bathroom with a WASHLET toilet as well as other toilet-related innovations.

Before forming Toto the members of the group did session work for many musicians. Keyboardist David Paich, drummer Jeff Porcaro, and guitarists Mike Porcaro and Steve Lukather all performed on the album Silk Degrees by Boz Scaggs. They also performed on albums by Steely Dan, Seals and Crofts, and Sonny and Cher.

Discography

With a name like Asia one would expect the group to be prog kings and queens but they're actually a pretty straight forward rock band. The group began as a quartet, and they recorded two albums - 1979's self-titled debut album, and 1980's Armed to the Teeth. However, even though the group have a diverse musical background their biggest hit was achieved in 1982 with Toto IV.

The album was a huge blockbuster, but it was not without its share of problems. Record companies put the band on spot with the ultimatum "give us an album that is a success or we'll sack you" and the pressure was on to give it. Luckily for Toto they delivered with the assistance of the smash single "Africa."

Toto's musical mastery is the result of their previous experience. Before joining the group, the members were session musicians for artists like Boz Scaggs. Steely Dan and Seals and Crofts. Their distinctive sound has become the standard for '80s music, influencing many contemporary artists.

The album starts out hard with songs such as Running Out of Time or Unknown Soldier that show the band's ability to create great AOR songs that slowly sink into your head. The album also has some slower, more jazzy tracks, like The Little Things and 먹튀검증 커뮤니티 Chinatown. And the album ends with Great Expectations, a song that mixes folk with distortion AOR and sounds like a complete flop, but works amazingly well.

After Toto IV, the band's fortunes began to wane. David Hungate left the band to focus on his solo career, and the band was dominated by drummers. In 1984, Bobby Kimball was fired from the group in the wake of drug charges and the group continued to perform as a trio featuring Michael Porcaro and Steve Lukather.

Toto released Isolation despite the turbulence. It wasn't as well-liked as IV. However, the band still was able to release a chart-topping album in 1992 with Kingdom of Desire. This album marked Toto's final lineup and the debut of Simon Phillips, a new singer.

Line-up

The band's third album, 토지노 커뮤니티 Turn Back, marked a return to the classic sextet arrangement of the previous albums. It was a more ferocious, consistent effort that had an edge that was more pronounced than Hydra. The more experimental sound of Turn Back was a reflection of the growth of the band. Drummer Bobby Kimball's increased virtuosity was reflected by the vocal delivery of Joseph Williams, who had become more confident and mature. David Paich's keyboard skills were also more sophisticated, sharper and less akin to previous efforts.

After touring to promote their album, the band recorded the band's Amsterdam live concert that was released on Eagle Records as a 2-CD set entitled Falling In Between. The group released their new studio album just a few months after, and went on a tour around the world to help promote it. During this time keyboardist Greg Phillinganes replaced Paich and bassist David Hungate quit the group to spend time with his family.

In 1998, Paich and Lukather started looking through old demo tapes and tapes to make an album that would feature songs that had never been recorded before. It was completed as a double-album titled Then and Now in 2001. It was the first album in the history of the band that did not include a single song with the word "A" in the title, and it also contained one previously not released track, "Kari-Anne".

By 2003, Toto had begun to decline in popularity. The fourth album, Old Is New, was a commercial failure, and singer Williams was suffering from a serious laryngitis condition which hampered his singing. Additionally, Hungate returned to Nashville and drummer Leland Sklar was replaced by Shem von Schroeck.

Downes, Wetton Palmer and Howe, the original members of Asia were in England in the beginning of 2006 to discuss the possibility that the band could be reformed. This lineup, minus Howe (who was working with Yes at the time) was later referred to as Toto XIV and toured extensively.

In 2010, the band reunited for another reunion tour with a slightly different line-up, including guitarists Mike Porcaro and Steve Lukather, drummer John Pierce, bassist Shannon Forrest, and 토토 첫가입 꽁머니; Www.Daoban.Org, multi-instrumentalists Warren Ham and Dominique Taplin. The band 먹튀검증 사이트 also had a special guest appearance from singer Michael McDonald and a backing vocalist named Mabvuto Carver.
