Line-up

Turn Back, the band's third studio album is an ode to the classic sextet structure and it was a more consistent, more powerful album with a sharper edge. The more edgy sound of the album was a reflection of the maturation of the group and featured drummer Bobby Kimball's greater proficiency on the drums, as well as a more mature, confident vocal delivery by singer Joseph Williams. Keyboardist David Paich's work also was more precise, sharper and less cloying than previously recorded efforts.

A new studio album was released a few months later, and the group went on a world-wide tour in support of it.
