It also improved its distribution system to better serve the needs of customers and increase profits. The company implemented a just-in-time approach to managing its supply chain, and it used the same method for its sales process. This led to a higher level of satisfaction of customers.

Discography

However, the album also includes some more mellow, jazzy tracks like The Little Things and Chinatown. The album closes with Great Expectations, a song which combines folk and distorted AOR and should sound totally wrong, but is incredibly effective.

After Toto IV, the band's fortunes began to wane. David Hungate left to concentrate on his solo career, and the band had to go through various drummers. In 1984, Bobby Kimball was fired from the group in the after he was charged with drug abuse. the group continued to perform as a trio, which included Michael Porcaro and 토토 꽁머니 (www.google.Ci) Steve Lukather.

Line-up

Turn Back, 첫가입 꽁머니 (take a look at the site here) the band's third studio album, was an ode to the classic sextet format, and it was a more consistent, more powerful effort with a harder edge. The more edgier sound of Turn Back was a reflection of the growth of the band. Bobby Kimball's growing ability to play was evident in the vocals of Joseph Williams, who had grown more confident and mature. David Paich's keyboard work was also sharper, more complex, 안전놀이터 and less derivative on earlier efforts.

After touring to promote the album, the group recorded a live concert in Amsterdam that was released as a set of two CDs entitled Falling In Between Live on Eagle Records. A new studio album followed a few months later, and the group went on an extensive world tour in support of the album. In this time keyboardist Greg Phillinganes filled in for Paich and bassist David Hungate left the group to spend more time with his family.

In 1998, Paich & Lukather began searching through old tapes & demos to find songs that hadn't been recorded before. The album was released as a double album titled Then and Now in 2001. It was the first album by the band without one single track titled "A". The album also contained an previously unreleased track "Kari-Anne".

By 2003, Toto had begun to decline in popularity.

Downes, Wetton Palmer and Howe, the founding members of Asia, met in England early in 2006 to discuss the possibility that the group could be reformed. This lineup, minus Howe who was occupied with Yes during that time, was renamed Toto XIV. They toured extensively.

In 2010, the band reunited for another reunion tour with a slightly different line-up, including guitarists Mike Porcaro and Steve Lukather, drummer John Pierce, bassist Shannon Forrest, and multi-instrumentalists Warren Ham and Dominique Taplin. The group also had a guest appearance by singer Michael McDonald, and a backing singer named Mabvuto Carpenter.
