If you name yourself after a Toto song, you only have one way to go musically. Other than having a few songs in movie soundtracks, and releasing a couple of good albums, their shot in the limelight was short lived – the band broke up and part of which went on to form Tattoo Rodeo.
The band were put together by vocalist/bassist Dennis Churchill, and guitarist Rick Chaddock – everything revolved around these two. As you would expect, big melodies and hooks are the main focus of the tunes, but they do have a gift for adding some great instrumental sections and Rick Chaddock is not a half bad guitarist. The strongest songs ironically are when keyboardist Garri Brandon sings – his voice suits the material better. My favourite tracks are when they rock it up, a bit like Breakin’ All The Rules, and One More Night when they seem to have their own identity. Still an enjoyable record.
8/10 from The Grooveman.
