2 of the coolest dudes in music, Steve and Joe.
Steve is an absolute legend . His book is pure gold -hopefully a volume 2 👍
Lukes book is really entertaining and informative and I have the audio version and there's classic Luke colorful language all thru it!!!!!
Luke has Said he'll never do another book. Some things better left untold haha
Could listen to Luke all day. So much wisdom.
Lukather’s 80’s tones were amazing. The solo on “I’ll Be Over You”, I chased that tone forever. He’s one of the best studio guys ever!
Steve is one of my all time favorite and he’s a hoot.
This is one of the best down to earth real interviews I have seen Joe do. I am blown away
I hope we get to see Steve and Joe jam together in 2021. Two humble masters.
I love Steve's sound in the 80s. That was the sound everyone was pushing the limits at the time
Luke’s playing on Middle Man is awesome . Kingdom Of Desire is a criminally underrated album ...I could type for ages . Saw him once in Birmingham-travelled from Glasgow -brilliant night with a brilliant band .
Totally (Toto-lly?) agree on 'Kingdom Of Desire'. I suppose its only failing, for some people, is that is sounds more like a Lukather solo record than a Toto record. He sounds stunning throughout and the band really kicks arse. It's tragic that only Luke and David Paich survive from that line up.
@@oldguitarjames9303 it’s the only Toto album I own , probably as you say it’s a very Luke album . Ever Changing Times is probably my favourite solo album and that was just out when I saw him in Birmingham.
Yes middle man was a great album! I wasn't aware of toto at the time I heard the album but Luke and jeff paich and Steve porcaro names would show up on many albums to follow!
It’s because of musicians like these guys I haven’t quit social media entirely. Those that can, do. Those that can’t, criticize. Lukather needs to perform - let’s hope that live music returns.
Steve is an absolutely top bloke. Great sense of humour, humble and a huge talent.
I love Luke. So talented, cool & down to earth.
Thanks for your comment supports, your comments and constant support has brought me this far. Keep Supporting ❤️

Saw Steve playing with Larry Carlton doing their jazz fusion thing probably around 2000 time frame. Great show. Those guys are huge in Japan.
Hilarious. Insightful. Steve, don't worry about what people say brother. You are the authentic experience. Peace and love.
You make your guests shine. You listen and ask the right questions and let them go. Awesome!
I love this show...............I didn't realize Lukather was such a cool cat.
Lukathers book, the Gospel According to Luke, is one of the best bio's I've ever read.
Luke is by far his best solo album ever. His autobiography is amazing and I recommend highly
Arguably the most informative, hilarious and quite frankly, HONEST interview I have seen in a LONG LONG time! Live from Nerdville Season 2 kicks off with a bang!
Met Luke back in 1981. Great guy and one hell of a musician.
"Your house smells like an old Les Paul case" hahaha!
Little tree and Les Paul should get together! I would buy that for my car!
I felt like I was in the room with you guys! Very candid, Luke your a riot!!! I appreciate it Joe!!!
One of the greatest Rock/Fusion guitarist. Steve Lukather was for me, the first modern rock guitarist to blend Be Bop, Jeff Beck and Hendrix in his awesome lead guitar style. Absolutely amazing.
Looking forward to this. Unfortunately, I’m not always familiar with lots of musicians.
But when I searched for Steve Lukather’s work, I just randomly clicked on Toto’s “Georgy Porgy”.
And…Yes…Yes! WOW !!! I definitely remember this music! ❤️.¸¸.☆
I met him in a transit lounge whilst we both waited for our connection. We spoke for a long time, I purposely did not mention music, guitars etc, just regular shit that regular folks discuss. He is exactly as he is here, maybe a little quieter! I strongly suggest checking out Toto's first self titled record which 'Georgy' came off. Average age of the band was 18 & their first record is incredible.
I just don’t understand why/how ANYONE can have an issue with Steve Lukather. He seems like a super nice guy - totally grounded and self-effacing. He’s the real f’ng deal in the studio... he’s been on everything worth listening to. And if they still had head cutting contests HE IS A BEAST - he would level pretty much any other player - he’s just surreally talented.
Two of the BEST GUYS in music today. Not to mention, two MONSTER players. Really enjoyed this one!
1:36 holy shit Steve please don't apologize for anything, you my friend are an absolute legend and we are lucky to have you in this mad effin world
part of the reason Joe gets good stuff from his interviews is they all know from hearing him perform that he is ALL about the music and because of that they are comfortable in that place and able to mind melt together for a great conversation..Luke is on my Mt Rushmore beside Danny Chet and Eric Thanks Joe and man I have 88 elmira on a tape loop in my brain...hehe..
I wonder if there's ever enough time for Luke to get all of his thoughts out. Every interview I've ever seen is this way, and he doesn't do it to step on anyone, he doesn't do it to dominate, he doesn't do it on purpose, he's not repeating himself, he's just trying to communicate everything that's going on in his head. But it still makes me think, how many hours could I have a conversation with him before he said, "And uh... well... I guess that's all there is to say."
Don’t be sorry for anything Luke, you are a REAL guitar hero and have always had a fantastic guitar sound!!
I have been lucky enough to meet both of you..( and to me ).. You two are each a Class Act... It's a shame that some people choose to Pick on Steve.. He's a Great Funny guy.. and as you know a MONSTER Guitar Player.. Yeah.. There are people out there now a day's with more chops BUT... He is just So Damn Creative... and just brought Soooo much to Many many albums.. I forget who said it. But.. Steve.. Always was the guy .. To bring the right lick for the song .. So glad you had him on.. Thanks Joe B.
always loved and respected steve he is honest and a great guitar player and writer singer. keep doing what your doing steve all good by me.
Beautiful and so honest, love both of you guys even more now..
Two guys, tons of sympathy and thanks for you two... enjoying your music
I have learned so much about the music industry since I started watching Nerdville. It’s the most interesting podcast ever. Thank you for taking the time to talk to us.
Steve is one of my favorite guitar players of all-time, he's a living legend. And he seems to be a very nice guy too. I would love to have the opportunity to have a beer with him talking about music. All the best, Steve. Take care, stay healthy!
Joe is a monster and master and being from CNY I just have to love him even more.Great interview with one of the truly greatest humans ever. I wish he could have interviewed Jeff Porcaro truly the greatest who left us way too early. 17yrs old and playing on National TV with Sony and Cher then going to play for Steely Dan the greatest writers of all time,mind boggling . All of us at 17 were figuring how to get laid or what am I going to take in college to make my parents happy .
Luke has always been a trend setter for me and always grabbed my heart. Effects, no effects you knew that incredible sound, music and energy. A real mover and shaker and I'm forever grateful.
Interviewing Luke is like riding a rodeo bull...hang on baby!
LOL
I enjoy the podcast very much. Thank you Joe for bringing the stars to light
This one is, hands down, my favorite interview thus far! Great one!
I sat in the rain soaked to the bone. Mike MacDonald was warm up band for Toto. He was great. Toto canceled, I was devastated. My hero Steve L.
Hope to catch him another time!!!
Steve I love your tone and the sound on Out of Love is so great!! I would listen to that song over and over again!!
Steve’s tale of Roger Waters show -In Glasgow Jackson Browne half way through a gig stopped the band mid -song and told the audience to put the phones away and live for the f...n moment and it worked a treat . 😀
I love great acoustic guitars and REALLY love moderately priced/high quality ones. Luke can buy any guitar he wants, probably get most any guitar given to him and he has a Yamaha hanging up behind him. I have Yamaha Custom Shop L15A from the 90's that is an amazing guitar.
On the other screen is a guy who tours with Les Pauls that cost more than my house. Which is also cool.
Luke is one of the best you will ever see. So is Joe. Awesome.
Another incredible interview by JB. Years ago I had a great privilege to work with some amazing players and the one thing that always struck me about the 'best of the best' was their humor, humility and intelligence. There are always notable exceptions, lol. Great to hear Lukather's take on his experiences over the years and taking about coming up during a. time and place where so many of us attended the 'school of hard knocks.' It's the rare player who can make it and thrive over decades in the business (and yes, it's a business).
JB is a very gifted interviewer and I find myself looking forward to every interview. They spoke of some of the young gifted players out there. JB (if you're out there somewhere reading this on the interwebs), Tosin Abasi would be an amazing interview. Very, very intelligent guy and a player who is pushing the boundaries of the instrument. A JB / Tosin Abasi interview would be one for the ages.
Steve has so much history in that brain he could talk for days with taking a breath. A very interesting dood for sure
poor Joe couldnt get a word in edge wise, its ok Joe listen and learn and pass it on
Luke is truly the greatest! Thanx for a great show!
I would love to be at a table and just listen to this guy talk. Man! The stories!
Screw the critics...also known as those who can't play.
Thank you Joe for this interview with Steve. Can't get enough.
Another great interview by JB. Thanks for these outstanding interviews Joe! Keep up the great work.
I get that it's a conversation between 2 (in my opinion) great guitarists who have their own sound and style,... both of which I enjoy. But,... and I'm most likely the minority here,... it feels like I'm eavesdroping. Not being able to join in and ask questions I care about is tough,... cause I do have questions about gear, how to get certain sounds,... solos,... stuff as a guitar player I want to know,... and it's frustrating. But,... hats off to Joe,... I got to meet him at a vintage guitar show awhile back (maybe he remembers I gave him a hand made guitar pick holder?)... he was gracious and took a pic with me! Joe is the type you feel comfortable asking if he could jam with you ( I almost asked, but we had a show that day and I had to go),... Steve is the guy I would like to have over for dinner with other guys like Joe, Ringo, Tim Peirce,...Vai, Satch,... just to hear the stories!!
Luke is the most genuine person this planet has ever known.As a musician that is 11 months younger than Steve, I cut my teeth on everything the members of Toto were on like many millions of us,any criticism towards any musician in toto or any people they played for are critisisms by people who should keep their mouth shut they aren’t musicians and have no idea what it takes to be one .When critics can write as many tunes and produce as many tunes and play with some of the greatest musical minds the world has ever known then maybe those idiots can have an opinion .
Great interview, I love Steve, always funny and talented, Toto’s “40 Trips Around the Sun” is one of my favorite concerts now, thank you, Joe! 👍🏻🎸🍊
when I was a kid, Hold the Line solo was one of my favorites!!....and the Hydra album was on my turntable constantly!!!
great to hear from such a talented and honest person as Luke telling it like it is, and Joe providing such great service for us fans of music by exposing some of the best musicians in such a relaxed and entertaining way, please keep it going!
A great show! So glad you guys put this kinda stuff out, hilarious moments and after listening to the music for decades it's cool to hear casual conversation from talented players.
THANK YOU ! I We love you guys for that video ...
In solidarity with the fighters for love, freedom, justice and truth, we express our feelings with music on our channel.
Greetings from Germany, CLUB OF THE UNCENSORED POETS
LOVE Luke. Truly, he's one of my all time big influences. And, I could care LESS about the criticism he gets for his comments. Unless you are the type of person who 1.) Has done THOUSANDS of sessions for other musicians under VERY strict deadlines 2.) Has to stick up for an AMAZING band who is CONSTANTLY knocked sideways by idiots/moronic critics/former bandmates ( and the occasional widows ) and 3.) gets constantly roasted for speaking FROM HIS EXPERIENCES even though he has been in the music business LONGER than all of the critics combined, then you don't get to belittle him for what he stands for. People who rag on musicians ( be it Luke, Frank Zappa or even Gene Simmons ) for speaking from their heart/from their experiences are simply swimming in the garbage they create. Thanks Joe for clarifying on this in the beginning. I've been in the media for over 30 years now and seeing people rag on experienced musicians/stars/community leaders/the general person on the street ( for speaking from their heart ) is so beyond a WASTE OF TIME ( and I'm seeing this business change for wrong reasons that viewers themselves are NOT aware of ). Luke has the right to say/experience life they way he sees fit. And, if you are one of those critics who hate Toto, I'm willing to make a VERY large bet that this band is on albums you crave. Stellar show Joe, as always!
I'M SO GLAD I WATCHED THIS, LOVE STEVE EVEN MORE, AND OF COURSE JOE B. IS ALWAYS ON THE TOP OF MY LIST. THANKS JOE FOR DOING THESE "HANG'S", KEEP 'EM COMIN'.....
Love live from Nerdville! This like all the interviews was great. Could listen all day. Thank you
Another really great , insightful interview.. Love Luke and also you Joe.. great material, nostalgia and relevant topics for us veteran guitar geeks!
Gotta love the Luke! Chops for days, humor, and real life vision.
I love these shows. So many cool guests and it‘s all about music and life. Thanks.
I missed the live, but watched on replay! So good! These are such amazing interviews, Joe!
Here’s 2 of my all time favorite guitarists.
4 Grammys for Toto 4
Luke won a Grammy the same year as co-writer, with Jay Graydon and Bill Champlin, of the George Benson song “Turn Your Love Around”
Luke and Larry Carlton won a Grammy for their Live Record “No Substitutions”.
The two of you are extraordinary Masters and, what is wonderful is that you both have such great perspectives and that sense of humor.
Thank you Joe! i love Steve so much
This interview is absolutely outstanding. What a programme Joe!
This was a great interview Joe you and Steve crack me up great stories.Steve is a great player as you are too really enjoyed this.
I had heard Steve in short interviews in the past, and I thought that he was kind of weird and sort of crass. This interview really opened him up for me, and now I get him (as much as any stranger watching an interview can). This really got me to like him. Great job on this, Joe. This made me smile a lot.
I love this show! Thanks Joe. You are the real deal. Love Luke
2 of the best guitar players of all time.
Joe this show is awesome your interviews are the best I've been playing guitar over 40 years this shit is so down to earth you make us feel part of this family thanks brother rock on ..
Thanks alot! I love you guys! That was a great interview. You guys are my favs guitar players ... THX
Wow, just loved this interview. Thanks, Joe.
absolutely awesome.... one of the best things I've watched in months!!!
I enjoyed this conversation so much. Both of you guys are an inspiration to me.
Absolutely awesome show. I love this guy.
I had the pleasure of writing for Luke's website for 18 years. He is a great dude and epic hang. I thank you Luke!
Steve is a good interview he says whatever is on his mind.
What an awesome interview, thanks Joe. Steve, I've never seen you in you an interview before, love how you came across, genuine, no pretense. Huge respect fella. :)
Love Steve. Among the greatest of greats.
I love you guys for that video - man what an insight - Steve Lukather is a giant. Two guys who make real music talk real music. THX
This is awesome! Thank you again.
Man, great video- I loved it. Thanks for posting. Finally something I can watch on the tube. Love hearing how all that great music was created . Amazing you just had to play on the spot and create parts and melodies out of thin air. Whole new level of love and respect for all that great music I love and miss so much. My dream job. I’d probably be the guy who gets fired before the 2nd take, but I’d die to try. Why not. Only live once. Great work Steve and joe. Love both your work. Keep it coming
Why do you fellas take to heart what muppets say about your life's? I've enjoyed this video thanks, Clapton can play blues, I watched him live in Glasgow age 10 years in 12 bars on 1 song. Respect and stay healthy all
I really enjoyed this interview Joe. Thanks mate.
Luke is GOD!!! And one of the nicest most sincere and self effacing people and he is the BEST Guitarist!!!! No disrespect Joe, but he hold a unique place in this crazy guitar world we live in and is my personal hero!!!
SK is the shiznit! Love his kander and truth. He has an awesome story. Bullied little geek who paid his guitar dues to get great. No ego, just a damn dude, period. Thanks for all the good shit SK!
Steve I caught you perform in Hollywood right before lockdown and your tone was gorgeous man! I went basically knowing Africa, by the end of the concert I realized how many songs I loved and grew up with as a kid, absolutely epic, top 5 concert in my life, up there with Pink Floyd, Stones, Page Plant Reunion, McCartney, Winwood. You're one of the greats and the sound is timeless. I realized I am a huge Toto fan.
Love these guys. Luke without a doubt one of the most accomplished players in the history of playing and Joe is absolutely amazing.
2 of my Favorite Musicians Saw Joe finally last year before the shut down in Melbourne Florida, hoping the shut down will end and Steve Tours so I can see him live. I have been abusing my guitars since the 80s. love this interview. thanks guys.
Its so great that my brother an i love these great humble musicians the Real talk way. He knows my britger does. We are 1 brothers whole 😊
I admire Joe for letting Steve endlessly ramble. Luke just loves to talk.
I really believe Steve sometimes rambles because of his hearing problem, at least that’s what I think but I love Luke & love listening to him.
Would love to hear why the Jeff Beck album Steve L was producing back in the 90's never came out
Fantastic Interview Joe! Luke is the man.👍💯
I love him. He’s so chill.
Such a great interview. So deep and rich a life.
Great interview Joe. Two of my absolute favorite players.
