Notes
Isolation is the Gold-certified fifth studio album by American rock band Toto, recorded 1984 and released on October 18, 1984. Isolation is the first album to feature longtime bassist Mike Porcaro and the only album with Fergie Frederiksen as the primary vocalist. Isolation failed to achieve the popularity of its predecessor Toto IV, although it achieved gold record status and gave the band their highest charting mainstream rock single Stranger In Town (No. 7). Relatively few songs from this album were featured in live performances after 1985's Isolation World Tour.

referencing Isolation (LP, Album, Stereo, Pitman) QC 38962
Doug Sax remains undefeated: I’ve yet to find a TML stamper that doesn’t sound at least better than average. This is not Toto’s best album in any way, but this pressing is about as good as it’s ever going to get! Highly recommended bargain-bin snag.- Edited 4 years agoAn excellent pressing and an excellent remaster. I think this album is underrated. Yes it is peak 80s sound with a lot of synth but it also has a prog touch in spite of its brevity. Fergie Frederiksen was an excellent vocalist. Too bad he didn't do more albums with them.

"How Does it Feel" is one of my favorite Toto songs, and I like many Toto songs. I was a radio DJ when this came out. My friend and I would predict the top chart position of songs when the station got new records in, and I though this was destined for top 5, if not #1. It peaked at around #35 and I don't know anyone who's ever heard it. A pity, and funny how radio works. Wish the band had embraced it nevertheless and included it in greatest hits packages and concert set lists.referencing Isolation (LP, Album, Stereo, Pitman) QC 38962
