The Band Toto Asia

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

Dhaniram Toto recorded Toto words so that the next generation could read the words. However, many of the words were being replaced by foreign ones, such as dui, which is Bengali for verandah.

Origins

The company was founded in 1917 and its early years mirrored Japan's economic growth. In the beginning of its existence, the company produced products to meet the demand for new, modern urban housing. It had the first tunnel kilns in the country to continuously produce ceramics. It also pioneered automation for production control, which helps to increase efficiency and consistency.

In the latter half of the 1980s, the company began expanding outwards to take advantage of sales and new markets. The company created the Cera Trading Company to import and sell other products from other manufacturers in order to complement its own range of sanitary earthenwares and plumbing fittings. This strategy helped increase sales and increased the firm's market share in the world.

In the 1990s 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 employed the same just-in-time approach to its supply chain management as well as sales program. This resulted in a higher level of satisfaction with the customer.

Toto continued to innovate toilet technology. Its latest toilet has a powerful, environmentally-friendly tornado flush. Toto uses recycled water in its manufacturing process and also has a green purchasing policy. Toto also manufactures faucets, bathtubs and hand dryers that have higher energy efficiency than standard models.

The first Toto museum opened in 2015. It hosts exhibits on Toto's most famous products, their evolution, the group companies (all of which are ceramics) and the history of plumbing and other products like bath units. In another gallery, visitors can see Toto products sold all over. The museum has a bathroom with a washbasin and other toilet innovations.

Before the formation of Toto the band, members of the group performed session work for various musicians. Boz Scaggs album Silk Degrees featured keyboardist David Paich, guitarists Mike Porcaro & Steve Lukather and drummer Jeff Porcaro & Steve Lukather. They also performed on albums by Steely Don, Seals and Crofts and Sonny and Cher.

Discography

With a name like Asia, you would expect the group to be prog queens and kings - but it's actually a fairly straightforward rock group. The group was formed as a four-piece and released two albums in 1979, the self-titled debut album and 1980's Armed to the Teeth. The band has a varied musical background but their biggest success came in 1982 when they released Toto IV.

The album was a massive blockbuster, but it was not without its difficulties. Record companies put the band on the position with the order "give us an album that is a success or we'll sack you" and the pressure was on to meet the deadline. Luckily for Toto, they did and they did it with the help of the smash hit single "Africa."

Toto's musical mastery is due to their previous experiences in the music industry, as the band members had been session musicians for artists like Boz Scaggs, Steely Dan, and Seals and Crofts before starting the group. Their sonic signature has since become the standard for pop music from the 1980s, and has influenced many modern artists.

The album begins hard with songs like Running Out of Time or Unknown Soldier that show the band's ability to write fantastic AOR tunes that slowly get into your head. However, the album also includes some more mellow, jazzy tracks, like The Little Things and Chinatown. The album concludes with Great Expectations, a song that combines folk with distorted AOR and sounds completely wrong, but actually works amazingly well.

After Toto IV, the band's fortunes began to decline. David Hungate left to concentrate on his solo career and the band had to go through numerous drummers. In 1984, Bobby Kimball was fired from the band in the wake of drug charges and the group continued to perform as a trio with Michael Porcaro and Steve Lukather.

Despite the turmoil, Toto forged ahead and released Isolation that was not as successful as IV. However, the band still managed to release another chart-topping album in the year 1992 with Kingdom of Desire.

Line-up

The album's third, Turn Back, marked an reversion to the classic sextet format of previous albums and was a stronger, more consistent effort that had an edge that was more pronounced than Hydra. Its more punk-rock sound reflected the maturation of the group, with drummer Bobby Kimball's greater ability on the drums and 먹튀검증 사이트 a more confident, mature vocal delivery from singer Joseph Williams. David Paich's keyboard skills were as well more refined, more precise and less akin to previous efforts.

After touring to promote the album, the band recorded a live show in Amsterdam that was released as a two-CD set titled Falling In Between Live on Eagle Records. A new studio album was released just a few months later and the group embarked on a world-wide tour in support of it. During this period, 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 tapes and demos for an album that would feature songs that had never been recorded before. It was completed as a double album titled Then & Now in 2001. It was the first album in the band's history not to feature one single track with the word "A" in the title, and it also contained one previously unreleased track, "Kari-Anne".

By 2003, Toto had begun to decline in popularity.
