Melodic and mediocre, Hydra hints that Toto have much potentials. It opens with three solid tracks ("Hydra", "St. George and the Dragon", "99") but as it moves on you realize that it misses a hit song. "Mama" is a beautiful groovy track that has surely inspired "Rosanna", while Kimball's vocals remind Freddy Mercury.

Technically better than its predecessor, "Hydra" and "St. George and the Dragon" kick off the record in a progressive rock style, something you haven't heard on Toto's first album. Sadly 'cheesy' soft rock ballads come into play again, denying the album to lift off the ground.

Toto at their most diverse. This album had the obligatory ballads along with some scorching guitar from Lukather on tracks like "White Lightning". My personal favorite.
