40 Trips Around The Sun - Vinyl, CD

Toto: 40 Trips Around The Sun versión en vinilo 2LP en remasterizado edición. Esta edición en concreto se lanzó en Europa en la editorial Columbia en colaboración con Legacy el día 9. febrero 2018.

17 tracks, including the previously unreleased "Spanish Sea", "Alone" and "Struck By Lightning". The other tracks on the album, mostly classics from the TOTO repertoire, were remastered by Elliot Scheiner and Gavin Lurssen and his team. The core band of Steve Lukather, David Paich, Steve Porcaro and Joseph Williams reunited in the studio a few months ago to work on the new record. While searching the Sony Music archives, they discovered several unfinished tracks featuring now-deceased band members Jeff and Mike Porcaro. One of these tracks, "Spanish Sea", was immortalized on the album "40 Trips Around The Sun". "The song originally came from the Isolation album sessions," comments Steve Lukather on the rediscovery. "It didn't make it onto the LP at the time, so we rewrote it and gave it a new chorus. Thanks to modern studio technology, we were able to make music not only with a younger edition of ourselves, but also with Jeff and Mike Porcaro. In doing so, we remembered how well the brothers could ignite a spark. It was a bittersweet moment that brought back a lot of old stories. The "Spanish Sea" reminded us of happy times, and of course a tear or two was shed. It's a typical TOTO song with a strong solo, and I kept the old 1985 melodic solo that Dave wanted. Here the old meets the new, but thanks to our friend, studio legend Al Schmitt, who recorded the tracks, and Bob Clearmountain behind the mixing desk, it sounds like the song was written 14 years ago, not 30+." Lukather says of "Alone," "The song is brand new and was really a team effort. The four of us in the band sat alone in a room and decided to start the album with an uptempo song. The lyrics might be a bit bleak, but we're not youngsters anymore and we've all lived our lives - with the good, the bad and the ugly sides of it. And then you just realise that at the end of your journey, you'll still be alone. We're proud of this track." David Paich came up with the idea for "Struck By Lightning", the third new track on "40 Trips Around The Sun". "I've had the opening riff in my head for months," Paich says. "Joe and the guys helped turn it into a song. I love the heavy arrangement and Luke's solo is already a classic!" There are few bands in music history that have had as big an impact on pop culture as TOTO. The band members have contributed to 5,000 albums that have collectively sold half a billion units and boast 200 Grammy nominations, which are staggering numbers! TOTO songs have been streamed over 400 million times on Spotify and viewed over 500 million times on YouTube. In their nearly 40-year career, TOTO have left their mark on many of the major works of popular music. This includes the best-selling album in history, Michael Jackson's Thriller, which was co-written by four members of the band. For many artists, TOTO's songs are considered the absolute benchmark when it comes to sound and production, and the band continues to set new standards today as synonymous with musical authenticity in these matters. Their sound has been featured in the background of countless television productions, and as one of the few hip hop bands of the 1970s to survive changing trends and styles, they have built a fan base that transcends generations.

Álbum abarca todos los géneros Rock y Rock clásico. Remastered Vinyl.
