Toto's cover album I just want to hear your thoughts on this album of songs coverd by probably the most gifted band in the 80s, one of the most virtoustic bands to have grased the earth.
oh and the Bass playing by Mike Porcaro on this record is stellar, one of the best bassplayers in the world, and sadly suffering from ALS
 
so I beg everybody to adress the anual Toto gigs in your country, I will probably do that myself if I have the money.

I think that the songs Maiden Voyage/Butterfly and Bodhisattva are probably my favorites on here.  They do a nice job on pretty much all of the songs.

They cover Steely Dan's "Bodhisattva"? Sounds interesting... I love that song, and generally like covers albums as well.
