It was on this date in 1982, Toto released their legendary album IV, so for today’s Forgotten 45 at 3:45, we’ll play a song from the album “I Won’t Hold You Back”.

Their 4th album (ahhh the title makes sense!) was a huge success.  The first single “Rosanna” was a #2 hit for 5 weeks, the follow-up “Africa” became the band’s only #1 song and Toto received 3 Grammy Awards from the project including Album of the Year, Producer of the Year, and Record of the Year in 1983.

“I Won’t Hold You Back” was the 4th single from Toto IV and went to #10 on the charts in May of 1983, featuring Timothy B. Schmit on background vocals.  It’s Toto with today’s Forgotten 45!
