Since leaving Toto in 1989, Williams has kept busy as a composer of film and drama scores, most notably for episodes of the science fiction series Roswell, and The Lyon's Den starring Rob Lowe. In addition to his guest spot on the last Toto album Falling in Between, a guest spot at several Toto concerts, the second Vertigo album Vertigo 2 has been released in 2006. Williams also released an album of cover songs (from renowned artists such as Elton John, Bryan Adams, Diane Warren, and Kevin Cronin) in 2006 featuring piano and voice only Two of Us. He returned with 2 other voice & piano albums in 2007 Smiles and Tears consisting of classic hits by popular artists such as Brian Wilson, Paul Simon, Eric Clapton, Phil Collins, and Stevie Wonder. This fall is Williams' latest solo effort and a classic, HQ melodic rock album.
