DVD Reviews of Toto - 25th Anniversary (Live in Amsterdam)

DVD Review: Nicely done, Toto et al.
Summary: 5 Stars

1. Recommended to me by an audiophile friend.
2. I'm not particularly into Toto.
3. Great performance, and great production. Both the DTS (4 channel surround) and Dolby (5.1) are great mixes.
4. A good buy. I'm glad I own it.

Love isn't always on time. Think about it.

DVD Review: Toto - 25th Anniversary, Live in Amsterdam [HD DVD] (2003)
Summary: 5 Stars

Agora que a banda est? se desfazendo e decidiram parar de gravar, que ? muito lament?vel, mais um dia sabiamos que isso ia acontecer, pois um dos membros do TOTO est?, digamos, meio acabado; ent?o ? hora de voc? adquirir este magn?fico show, performance nota 10 do TOTO em Amsterdam e ainda mais agora com o lan?amento em HD-DVD. A defini??o do som (DTS), ficou surpriendentemente melhor que a vers?o DVD, tamb?m em DTS e a imagem n?o se conta. A performance vem com 02 sucessos, que s? por eles vale a pena ter o t?tulo, que ? AFRICA e ROSANNA. Indico a todos que sao amantes do Pop Rock Internacional.

DVD Review: Old vocals and a comment on "modern" music...
Summary: 4 Stars

I don't know all the names, but I know the songs for this band. All the "big" songs are here and the sound quality is great. Of course, like everyone else has stated, they are great on their instruments. The guy who sings lead on "Africa" and on "I Won't Hold You Back" cannot sing the way he used to and that must be mentioned. And in the case of "I Won't Hold You Back" he has no one to help him with the backing vocals on the chorus and in one part, he gets the fans to sing it at the point he is forced to raise his voice. Very disappointing. We'd be better off just listening to the studio songs for these guys. I must say, though, the other vocalist (the one who sings the high chorus on Africa) still sounds great. The first guy has the "I'm tired or had too many cigarettes" syndrome.

Why do these bands from the late 70's and early to mid 80's keep coming out of the wood work to tour? The answer it simple... Today you have a bunch of dingbats who look like they just got out of prison, bodies filled with tattoos and piercings who cannot sing, compose decent melodies or even play their instruments... It's only within he country and western style that there are still some good artists (though country's not really my first choice). That's why I, and many others, continue to seek out old school rock acts.

DVD Review: Great if you know the songs.
Summary: 5 Stars

I know Africa and Rosanna. Dont know the other songs. The sound and picture quality is great. Channel separation is great too. This HD-DVD was well done.

DVD Review: Toto - Live in Amsterdam
Summary: 5 Stars

Great picture, awsome sound, only thing lacking, would have liked to have heard more of a greatest hits package. Not enough old material in full song format. Worth buying!

Description of Toto - 25th Anniversary (Live in Amsterdam)

Toto may be past its prime as a multi-platinum recording band, but Live in Amsterdam offers abundant proof that their performances are as electrifying as ever. Recorded in Amsterdam's Heineken Music Hall on February 17, 2003, near the end of Toto's 25th anniversary world tour, this dynamic concert serves as a cheerful reminder that Toto have been alive and well and recording steadily since 1978. The band's 2002 release Through the Looking Glass was an album of covers, two of which are welcomed here: "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" is a prime showcase for guitarist Steve Lukather, and "Bodhisattva" is a tight, meticulous tribute to Toto's original drummer, the late Jeff Porcaro, and his classic sessions with Steely Dan. The mega-hits "Africa," "Rosanna," and "Hold the Line" are perfectly executed, and in a band full of talented singers, lead vocalist Bobby Kimball sounds better than ever. Two impressive medleys show the band in full gear as a comfortable unit of seasoned professionals, highlighted by impeccable work from keyboardist David Paich, bassist Mike Poracaro, and ace drummer Simon Phillips (who also produced and mixed this recording for DVD). And while 35 minutes of Porcaro's backstage home-video might seem frivolous, it shows a band that's still having fun, as reflected in the beaming smiles of their appreciative Amsterdam audience. --Jeff Shannon
