    Toto and Christopher Cross performed at John Cain Arena in Melbourne/Naarm on Wednesday 16 April. Once considered passé, yacht rock has undergone a cultural resurgence in recent years.

Toto’s early ’80s classic “Africa” is still popular in clubs – there’s a Late Nite Tuff Guy remix – and it’s surely only a matter of time before Eric Prydz flips Cross’ “Ride Like The Wind” into a viral banger.
