February 28, 2022

Lzi Hayes, one quarter of rising UK rockers The Hot Damn joins Mike to geek out over one the majesty of Toto and their celebrated fourth studio album.

How was 'Rosanna' influenced by John Bonham's performance on Led Zeppelin's 'Fool In The Rain'?
Which track on the album features an Eagle on backing vocals?
Why is Steve Lukather such a bastard? (In the nicest possible way!)

PLUS: Enjoy 'I Didn't Like You Anyway', the massive new single from The Hot Damn!
