Одна из самых недооценённых хард-роковых команд (из-за проблем на A&M был приостановлен выпуск уже готового очередного третьего альбома и группа распадается). В 2008 году группа возрождается начав концертную деятельность, а в 2009 подписан контракт на выпуск трёх альбомов со студией FNA Records.

Miss B. Havin': The Unreleased Wild America Recordings" consists of material written and demoed before the bands sophomore effort for A&M Records.

Blues-based, Led Zeppelin inspired metal that should have made Tora Tora a household name, but sadly didn't. One of the best-unknown bands in the hard rock genre, but lack of label support killed any chance the band had for massive success.
Formed in Memphis, Tennessee, by Anthony Corder (vocals), Keith Douglas (guitar), Patrick Francis (drums) and John Patterson (drums). They quickly beat out sixty other groups in a Battle of the Bands contest and received some free studio time. They cut one track in Memphis before using the prize money they had won to record an entire independent EP called To Rock, To Roll. The studio was so impressed with the recordings that they offered to help shop the demo and gave them even more free recording time. Tora Tora eventually singed with A&M and the debut album made the Billboard Top 100, and hovered on the brink of breaking wide open. Later that same year "Dancing With A Gypsy" would appear on the soundtrack for Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure. The follow-up, while being another classic, sold even less copies then the debut. A third album was recorded but never released due to label restructuring. Realizing that their due date had expired, the band folded.

Recent years have seen Corder and Francis perform live as either Tora Tora or Homemade Flavor. Rumors circulate that the unreleased third album may finally see the light of day, and a few of the tracks surfaced on 2010's Before & After. A band that should regroup and release another killer album on the unsuspecting public.

Recently, in 2008, all four original band members have reunited to do several performances. One was a sold out performance at Newbie's, a local club in Memphis, TN to celebrate their 20th anniversary of receiving their record deal. After the show, a record was sold to fans which included songs from their first two albums and material slated for their unreleased "Revolution Day" album. The album was titled The Warehouse... 20 Years Later. The second occurred during Rocklahoma 2008. The band is scheduled to play another reunion show at The New Daisy Theatre on March 7, 2009, in Memphis.

At the end of 2009 Tora Tora signed with the Nashville, Tennessee based FNA Records and released 3 albums. "Before & After", "Bombs Away: The Unreleased Surprise Attack Recordings", and "Miss B. Haven': The Unreleased Wild America Recordings.
