Mr. Mister

RCA, 1985

Singer Richard Page almost joined Toto, but instead found fame, albeit fleetingly, with Mr. Mister. This, their second album, a perfect hybrid of melodic rock and new wave, yielded two US No.1s in Broken Wings, a ballad as immaculate as The Cars’ Drive, and Kyrie, a ringing, quasi-spiritual anthem.
