Welcome to Joop and Jesper's big Toto fan website homesite! We are huge Totofans and hope to share some of our thinkings on
the band, and reviews.
Meet your hosts:
Joop Van Der Ploeg. I from Holland, in a small town with not many good music fans. I have been a Totofan since I was a very
young boy. I enjoy others of Melodicrock, but Toto is really the best; to me. I am the owner of this site so you should listen
to me and not Jesper! jejejejeje! People say I have a crazy sence of humour so watch out!
Jesper Jensen. I am from Danmark and have been a Toto fan since 1988. People are saying that I am the "brains" of the operation,
and I think this is correct! Joop has bad English because he went to "Dutch Schools", so please excuse his typing. I play
the drums and bassguitar and also do sing. I think Joseph Williams is the king of the Westcoast melodickhardrock sound.
Toto right now are the following people:
Steve Lukather (he is crazy, man!): Guitar, voice
Mike Porcaro (Der Groovemeister!): Bassguitar
Simon Phillips (like an octopus!): drumlegend
David Paich (multitalented man!): Keyboard, voice
Bobby Kimball (what a voice!): voice
Also, new member: Greg Phillinganes from Clapton and others!
Some of the great past Totomember:
Joseph Williams: King of all Melodicrock singers, I think both of us agree that Toto's best work was when he was around!!!
His father did many movie soundtracks.
Fergie Frederiksen: He has what is definitely the "Ultimate Melodicrock Voice". No one can sing like that, not even God himself.
If you do not own "Equilibrium" you are surely a bad person. Jejejeje!
Jeff Porcaro: What a groove, man. He is gone but not forgotten! We love you, Jeff!
David Hungate: Good bassplayer. He was on westcoast melodicrock masterpiece "Mecca"! You must own that record!
Jean-Michel Byron Duplessis: What can be said about Byron? Eechh! Jejeejejejeje
