The Band Toto Asia

Toto was expanding its production facilities overseas, and doing business in France and Germany, Indonesia, Korea and Taiwan, Thailand and the People's Republic of China.

Dhaniram Toto documented Toto words to ensure that the future generation could read them. Many words were substituted with foreign ones. For instance dui, which was Bengali for verandah, was being used.

Origins

The company was founded in 1917 and its early years mirrored Japan's economic growth. In the beginning of its existence, the company manufactured goods to meet demand for modern, contemporary urban housing. It used the first tunnel kiln in the country to produce ceramics continuously. It also pioneered the use of automation to control production, which allows for greater efficiency and consistency.

It established the Cera Trading Company, importing and selling other products of manufacturers to complement its own lines of sanitary earthenware and plumbing fittings. This strategy increased sales and expanded the company's market share in the world.

In the late 1990s, Toto had shifted its focus to research and development of water-related household appliances. It also improved its distribution system to better meet the needs of customers and increase profits. The company employed the same approach of just-in-time in its supply chain management and sales program. This resulted in a higher level of customer satisfaction.

They also performed on records by Steely Dan, Seals and Crofts, 메이저사이트 and Sonny and Cher.

Discography

In 1984, Bobby Kimball was fired from the band in the after he was charged with drug abuse. the group continued to perform as a trio, which included Michael Porcaro and Steve Lukather.

Line-up

The album's third, Turn Back, marked a return to the classic sextet format of previous albums and was a stronger, more consistent effort that had an edge that was stronger than Hydra.
