the logo on the Bass Drum for Rock Band: TOTO, may vary depending on which TOTO drummer you are asking about: JEFF PORCARO, SIMON PHILLIPS, or GREGG BISSONETT. For the most part PORCARO played PEARL(in studio), and a combination of LUDWIG/Gretcsch/Slingerland on Live stage performances displaying the PEARL or LUDWIG brand logo. I recall maybe the TOTO-TURN BACK album cover, or TOTO IV cover displayed on his bass drum. SIMON PHILLIPS play exclusively for TAMA, most of his Live performances show the TAMA logo in his Bass Drum; however, for the 'TOTO-Falling in Between(2006-07 Tour) he displayed strange symbols, almost like constellations, on his Bass Drum. Then there was GREGG BISSONNETTE, who filled in temporarily for PHILLIPS during the 2005-06 "TOTO-Tambu TOUR," and who plays MAPEX drums.....hopes this helps.

Toto Added info - The groups original name was Pogo, but the guy who did the comic strip wouldn't let them use it.

Typing the tune of the song will not help find the song as we do not know the timing or pitch among other things. Try remembering where you heard it and search for it or remembering some lyrics, if there are any.

Toto, of course. You're serious you did not know that!?
In February 1983 American rock band Toto's 'Africa' was number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart. 'Africa' appeared on the band's 1982 album, 'Toto IV.' Toto performed the song on all subsequent tours until their breakup in 2008.
No.
The song is called 'Africa' and was written by David Paich and Jeff Porcaro, of the rock band Toto.

American band Toto sings "Rosanna."http://www.last.fm/music/Toto/_/Rosanna
Poco did not record "Africa". The band Toto recorded that on their "Toto IV" album.
The band was called Toto.
The name was taken from Dorothy's dog in The Wizard of Oz.

The biggest years for Toto were 1978 through about 1984. After the album Toto IV, which did well, the band's fortunes slid a bit. They are still around (though with changes in the lineup - of course) and still did tours through 2007. But the crew might be "winding down" now, and it might be possible to see them only occasionally in the future. At least that's the word on the street. Wikipedia has a pretty good article on Toto.
