Past to Present 1977–1990 is the first compilation album by Toto, released in 1990. It contains nine hit songs from the band's first seven albums, and four new songs recorded with new singer Jean-Michel Byron.

According to the band, it was Toto's record label Columbia who proposed the band work with Byron. Ultimately the band was not happy with his onstage antics and he was asked to leave the band. Steve Lukather became Toto's lead vocalist in 1991.

Track listing

Some CD inlays and LP sleeves had the song '99' wrongly dated as a 1988 track. The only former Toto member not named in the album credits was Fergie Frederiksen lead vocalist on the 1984 album Isolation as none of that album's tracks were featured.
