Discography
With a name as evocative as Asia you'd expect the group to be prog kings and queens - but it's actually a fairly simple rock group. The group was formed as a four-piece and released two albums that were self-titled in 1979 and 1980's Armed to the Teeth. The group has a diverse musical background, but their greatest success came in 1982 with Toto IV.
The album was a major blockbuster, but it was not without its difficulties. The record companies put Toto under pressure to release a hit single or else they would pull them. Luckily for Toto they did and they did it with the aid of the smash single "Africa."
