| Toto XX:
1977-1997 is hardly the definitive collection that its title
suggests. Essentially, this is a reunion album, featuring nine
new studio cuts and four live tracks, including a version of
"Africa." The band sounds better than you might expect, but
the material isn't all that different than that on Tambu — the
performances are a little tighter, slicker and better.
That said, it's not particularly
interesting to anyone outside hardcore fans, who will probably
be pleased to hear an approximation of the original lineup back
in action, regardless if the tunes are memorable or not.
