“After Touring for a full year behind the highly acclaimed album “Falling In Between” and subsequently inspiring hundreds of thousands of devoted fans, TOTO have filmed a spectacular new live show at the atmospheric Le Zenith in Paris. Seventeen years after their first live video was released, TOTO have returned once again to this legendary concert venue to perform in front of another enthusiastic audience and capture and extraordinary performance on DVD. Enter the live action and become a part of nearly two hours of spellbinding music and showmanship that left every live concert-goer in awe. // Joining the line-up is renowned bassist and long time friend Lee Sklar (Phil Collins, James Taylor) who teams up with Steve Lukather (guitars & vocals), Simon Phillips (drums), Bobby Kimball (vocals), Greg Phillinganes (keyboards & vocals) and Tony Spinner (guitars & vocals) for the current tour. Witness the stunning chemistry between these exceptional musicians who, after just some weeks together on the road, eased into a sound both tight and inspired. // Four years after the highly acclaimed “Live In Amsterdam” became a benchmark in concert recordings, “Falling In Between Live” transcends yet another boundary. Recorded with state-of-the-art technology and directed by the award winning Blue Leach (Depeche Mode, REM) who has toured with Toto extensively and is instinctively in tune with their music, this full concert DVD delivers brilliant sound and picture quality that brings you up close and personal to experience TOTO’s magical live performance. Get ready for an overwhelming feast for eyes and ears and watch the concert like you’re in the front row… from your own living room! // Accompany TOTO on this mind blowing voyage, which spans the entire spectrum of their illustrious career, with a diversity of musical styles second-to-none. Encounter the new and energetic tunes from “Falling In Between” - including a powerful rendition of “Bottom Of Your Soul” that will send shivers down your spine - as well as exciting, fresh versions of unforgettable classics like “Rosanna” - clad in a groovy jazz intro - “Hold The Line” and “Africa” - with a now hauntingly ingenious ending. Rediscover those rare fan favourites, some of which have not been played live in over 20 years - gems like “Isolation” or compelling songs from “Tambu” and “Kingdom Of Desire” - as they are given new energy, interpreted years later with the same skill, and an even more accomplished sound that never ceases to astonish. // As always with TOTO, expect impromptu solos showcasing stellar talent and flawless interplay, the result of years of camaraderie and a shared love of musical adventure which wows the audience with new chops and chords, transforming each concert into an inimitable event. // “Master Of Ceremony” Steve Lukather leads the band once again, never failing to deliver laugh after laugh with his crazy sense of humour and energetic interaction with the audience. // Experience the live whirlwind that is TOTO, transcending all musical boundaries, as they hypnotise the audience and take all present on an unforgettable musical journey through space and time from which you wish you’d never have to return. // Embark once again with TOTO as they continue to set new standards in live music with “Falling In Between Live.””

“Toto rock harder than ever before in this stunning live performance filmed in front of a wildly enthusiastic sell out crowd at Le Zenith in Paris on the Falling In Between tour. The show combines rarely heard tracks, album favourites, great solos and classic hits including “Hold The Line”, “Rosanna”, “Africa”, “I’ll Supply The Love” and many more.”.

Johnny Mathis & Deniece Williams



Johnny Mathis & Deniece Williams - That’s What Friends Are For
Columbia JC 35435 (1978) - US LP
Columbia Legacy CK 85655 (2003) - US CD - Reissue with 4 bonus tracks

Side One

1 - You’re All I Need To Get By
2 - Until You Come Back To Me (That’s What I’m Gonna Do)
3 - You’re A Special Part Of My Life
4 - Ready Or Not
5 - Me For You, You For Me

Side Two

6 - Heaven Must Have Sent You
7 - Just The Way You Are
8 - That’s What Friends Are For
9 - I Just Can’t Get Over You
10 - Touching Me With Love

CD reissue bonus tracks

11 - Emotion - Also in the Johnny Mathis album “You Light Up My Life”
12 - Too Much, Too Little, Too Late -
Also in the Johnny Mathis Album “You Light Up My Life”
13 - Love Won’t Let Me Wait -
From the Johnny Mathis album “A Special Part Of Me”
14 - Without Us - Previously Unreleased

Notes: 1) Album does not come with track-by-track musician credits. 2) Album was reissued by Columbia Legacy in 2003 with 4 bonus tracks: 11, 12 are singles which were also included in the Johnny Mathis 1978 solo album “You Light Up My Life” on Columbia 35259; track 13 is a song taken from the Johnny Mathis 1984 album “A Special Part Of Me”; track 14 is a previously unreleased track that was the theme song of the NBC-TV series “Family Ties”. 3) Columbia Legacy CD reissue comes with a differently cropped picture on rear inlay plus four more pictures of Mathis and Williams included in inner artwork, three of which in b&w and one in color. 4) Above picture is of original US LP while following credits were taken both from original LP and from CD reissue. 5) Bizarrely enough, the 2003 reissue on Columbia Legacy provides identification numbers for mixes, recording dates, chart positions and catalog numbers for singles, but has removed the musician credits which were included, albeit not in track-by-track fashion, on the original LP release. 6) 2003 reissue does not mention Glen Spreen as arranger and conductor for track 8, attributing arrangement and conduction to Gene Page instead. 7) According to the liner notes in the 1996 Deniece Williams anthology “Gonna Take A Miracle” on Columbia Legacy CK 64839 (see picture below), it can be inferred that Lee is the bass player on “Too Much, Too Little, Too Late”. No credits to that effect could however be found on the Mathis LP “You Light Up My Life”. 8) Title song is a cover of a 1976 Deniece Williams single and has nothing to do neither with the Paul Williams nor with the Bacharach/Bayer Sager songs of the same title. 9) The EU 1989 CD reissue of this album on CBS Collector’s Choice 902124 2 has same track order and content of original LP but lists the cover of the Marvin Gaye/Tammi Terrell song “Heaven Must Have Sent You” as “Your Precious Love”. Whether this is true also of other re-releases is unbeknownst to me. 10) The brief biographical passage which is quoted at the bottom of this entry is an excerpt of the liner notes by journalist Ellis Widner that are coming with the CD reissue, as they are printed on the outer back inlay of the CD package. Please see original booklet for the complete notes.

“In 1977. Mathis took another step that brought him squarely into the mainstream of American pop and soul music - he was teamed with the R&B singer Deniece Williams, a former member of Stevie Wonder’s Wonderlove. For Mathis, it was a bold step. He was a traditional singer, though he covered songs by modern writers. When he recorded this album with Williams, it would be the most diversified, contemporary album of his career.”.
