So, the new Toto album (XIV) is pretty darn great. It has an epic closing prog track, “Great Expectations,” that rocks your socks off and pays tribute to the glories of prog. “Chinatown” also has mad prog spirit to it as well. As for the rest, I am still warming to some of the other tracks, but my initial standout favorites among the remainder are “Orphan” and “The Little Things” and “Fortune.”
I was pleased to discover Toto is touring together with Yes this summer. It will be great to see Yes again, and also to see Toto play their most stellar track, “Great Expectations,” live. And I’ve always had a soft spot for “Hold the Line” and “Rosanna” as well…
Progarchy 
Yes, great songs and performances. Top notch! But the sound, at least on the mp3 downloads, ranges from bearable to strange to horrible. A couple of songs sound like they are being piped through a 200-year-old drainage system during a rain storm. Weird. That said, this is fresh-sounding, with excellent vocals, great guitar, and some really nice proggy moments.
