Are you ready to go All In with Toto? The band has just announced a limited edition 17-LP/13-CD/1-BD box set due on October 12 from Legacy Recordings. This one-of-a-kind collection, exclusively available through the band's website now through April 10 only (for fall delivery), will offer a complete portrait of the band's Columbia Records years, plus some previously unreleased extras. All In features the following albums on seventeen LPs and thirteen CDs:
- Toto (1978)
- Hydra (1979)
- Turn Back (1981)
- IV (1982)
- Isolation (1984)
- Fahrenheit (1986)
- The Seventh One (1988)
- Kingdom Of Desire (2-LP set) (1993)
- Tambu (2-LP set) (1996)
- Mindfields (2-LP set) (1999)
- Toto XX (2-LP set of outtakes, demos, and live tracks) (1998)
- Live In Tokyo EP (previously unreleased recordings from the band's 1980 tour) (2018)
- Old Is New (2018)
The previously unreleased Old Is New LP features ten tracks. Of the ten, seven are never-before-heard, along with "Spanish Sea," "Alone" and "Struck By Lighting" which are all featured on the band's recent greatest hits collection 40 Trips Around The Sun. All of the music in the box set was remastered by the band along with acclaimed engineer Elliot Scheiner.
The box set also boasts a bonus Blu-ray, with the Live in Paris 1990 concert and a 5.1 surround mix of Toto IV, the band's 1982 breakthrough album including both "Rosanna" and "Africa." In addition, the box contains an 80-page hardcover book with new essays, previously unseen photographs, and an 8x8" certificate of authenticity hand-signed by the band members.
For those wishing to hear the new remasters on CD rather than vinyl, a slimmed-down CD-only version of the All In box with just the albums will be made available later this year. (One hopes that the surround version of Toto IV will likewise be released individually.)
Toto's 40 Trips Around the Sun tour kicks off tonight in Munich, Germany, wrapping up on April 8 in Glasgow, United Kingdom. U.S. tour dates for the summer are expected to be announced soon. In the meantime, pre-orders are being accepted through April 10 directly from the band at the link below! Note that All In will not be available at retail stores.

Shawn says
Great news! I preordered a few weeks ago and really did not want to have to buy all those CDs also - I would've, but would not have been happy about it!
Kauwgompie says
Let me get this right, if you don't buy vinyl, and want the cd's, it doesn't come with the Blu-Ray disc? What a load of bull.
Please release the 5.1 Surround Sound mix of Toto IV separately. It sells for crazy amounts on Ebay. Im disappointed that there are no further 5.1 mixes made.
Rich D says
Whatever happened to the CD only box set ?? Its supposed to be released this Friday Oct 5th but I see no listings for this anywhere - Amazon has had a "joke" listing for this set referring it to "Out" by Dorothy but nothing listed as "All In" by Toto.
Has the CD only box been delayed or pushed back?
Joe Marchese says
The full "All In" box is now scheduled to ship around November 30; it's likely that the CD version has been similarly delayed and will be listed as soon as release information can be confirmed. We will report back once we have new details.
Rich D says
Thanks for the info !!!
William Hill says
Now seems to have disappeared from the schedule altogether!
RichD says
I understand there will be no CD only box set.........and the deluxe set is evidently sold out............I would've preordered the deluxe set had I known that.........
William Hill says
