After retiring from teaching art at WIU in Macomb IL I had more time to devote to Togolot music which we had been doing since 1974 so we started exchanging midis and visiting between Duluth MN where Toga and John Zorbas joined me Eugene Solot in recording sessions. John had played in a number of jazz bands on tenor sax and adapted well to our improvised experimental form of music. Toga who played in a variety of bands from Rock to country to blues was also well educated in music and had many years of experience in the music business and with his schooling in composition and keyboards he add the structure to the spontaneous compositions that makes up the distinctive Togolot sound.

The Dark Side of the Child
This is our signiture song which has many versions.

Toga is playing with his old drummer from the Crossover band and since they are both named Douglas they came up with A Two Doug Night. They are playing as a duo with keyboards and guitar in spots around Duluth MN. Gene will soon be coming out with a book about his life called, ""An Artist's life"" which will be published by Publish America, and he has made quite a few DVDs of the Togolot group. John is still playing on the boardwalk when the weather is good and searching for the perfect tenor saxophone which is similar to the search for the Holy Grail. 3/8/2014 7:09:34 PM
