Legal issues aside, I love how much respect Steve Pocaro has for Luke. Mark of a true professional. Luke is definitely the super glue that held this band together despite everything. Does the man ever sleep?! I hope these guys eventually mend stuff and jam again. Total legends, each one of them. ❤
I knew the two Steves back then at, and before, the beginnings of Toto through some mutual friends. They were extremely good friends. It is interesting how money and legal issues get in the way of things sometimes.
As for me, I wish Luke would not have spoken so much bad about Steve P when the touring band broke up in 2019. It was hurtful to read it all. Steve P is a class act who I respect.
He may not agree with being called a “living legend”, but Lukather is THAT. But the thing is that he is a sweet, funny and humble person. To have that amazing talent AND those attributes? There will only ever be one of him. Thank God we still have him!
Visto live con I toto penso che per versatilità tecnica nel giocare in tutti i generi musicali lukather rappresenta la chitarra tra le migliori al mondo lukather e van halen i miei preferiti sono in possesso di una versione live di hold the line dove suonano insieme ragazzi non ho parole
I already love Steve Lukather but when you hear Steve Porcaro and David Paich praise him like they do, makes me love him even more! Oh, Luke!!! Hugs!!!
I wholeheartedly agree! - I couldn't put a number on how many times Luke's playing has given me the goosebumps... and still does; I have a lot of hero worship to offer that artist. My favourite musician.
Yes both Luke and Neal Schon are at the top of their game so melodic 👍😀👍 forget your claptons and pages they aren’t in the same league in my humble opinion
@@RogerMelodicMusic Absolutely, Neal Schon is in my shortlist for sure. Dann Huff is another stratospheric talent that just doesn't get enough love; he sits comfortably inside my top 3 faves.
Is there a musician that has been listened to more than Luke EVER? If you think about all the times Africa or Beat It or any of the other song he performed on played on a radio, or a mall PA, or in a dentist's office, or an airport, or a commercial, or a movie and then multiply that by the 1000's of songs he appeared on...honestly, can you make a case for anyone having been listened to more than LUKE? The Beatles, maybe, but I can't think of anyone who has been intentionally and passively listened to more than Luke...EVER!
lukather is the man. rhythm, lead -- amazing at both. great feel, great at emotional playing. a master. "journey through" on his new album is incredible.
Again, the entire interview is phenomenal, but this is extremely special for me, especially now that Luke's son Trev is now out there, magical 🙌 Totally agree with Steve and David 🙌🙌❤️❤️
I.met these guys an Luke was a bucket list for me..real talk. So kind an he tomd me i was so kin̈d . Steve was so nice all were ..hungate didbt say much but was nice Dave i think he saw how in.all i was w/Luke he was like shiot i aint messing w them lol..all true musicians an seem like good souls. Luke is i know. I.named my Doberman after gis son if that says anything..Bohdi ..i call HIM BOHDI MAN CAN.FROM WILLIE AN THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY. BUT YEA. IM 52 LY AUNT GAVE ME ToTo 4 album. Theyve been my all to me since i was like maybe 11 years old. The 1st album . Wow. To me their Prog rock.w ballads .their driven like no other band evva to me. Before their time listen to their music now written to great an played to great still..i..love the way Luke plays rythm . Real talk. The solos he does are so nice so great but his rythm to me is what makes luke. So many musicians an solos. It can only last so long but w Luke it doesnt get old. Watch los lobotomys live. Holy Sh-t. I.mean . He is on a differ planet than.other musicians as a whole of other instruments..to me if u could vote the greatest MUSICIAN AS PLAYONG WHAT EVVA AGAINST ANOTHA INSTRUMENT..LUKE IS THE DRIVEN WARRIOR KING..REAL TALK. ToTo is. Steeley dan 2nd. Led Zepplin.nobody close but Luke an hes better as playong one instrument. John Bohnam an JPJ were the best musicians in the band but the sound they crrated is waay still before time. So when i say ToTo is the best of all time ..have u listened like really deep by your self all the albums. They can plan wth evva kind of music they mfn wanna. Thank you for helping my life. REAL TALK.
There is no beef between steve l and steve p. Steve P didn t want to get involved in the court issues. Steve signed off his rights when he left the band in 1987. He s never been a full member again. Like Joseph willemas etc he was on the pay roll. It s about the band name and all that came with it. Because the rights wher not signed off, Jeff was entitled to earnings from 1992 untill now to because he also created the band and name. And well about Bobby, tony spinner also toured as formely from toto, promotors do that. Its just insane that Toto now can not make a record because susan porcaro then get s most of the money. she could have settled and then waved of the rights. Africa is half hers anyway

I think every Toto fan wants this. I would love to see the last of the members play together live.

@@Nola_baby Me too.
@@keymusic I sensed that there is still love between them. Hopefully it prevails.

Steve Poracro is all class

I couldn’t agree more! He’s my favorite guitarist. ❤️😃👍🏻

So true! 🔥Toto has been a tremendous musical reference, not only for its artistic meaning, but for the quality of its musicians.

Toto…just indescribable..blessed to have seen them live in their hayday..can’t get enough..RIP JEFF…rock on Luke..same age brother
lukather is the man. rhythm, lead -- amazing at both. great feel, great at emotional playing. a master. "journey through" on his new album is incredible.
Todos son unos virtuosos un grupo estelar nadie como ellos únicos clásicos
Que du bonheur de revoir le maestro D.Paich et S.Porcaro .
Long live Luke! 🎸🌹🖖🏻
Awesome group of musical geniuses!
So glad that Steve P speaks highly of Luke despite of that lawsuit. I hope they talk about Bobby Kimball or David Hungate next.
They talked about Bobby in the new documentary
I first heard of Luke outside of Toto on his No Substitutions album with Larry Carlton. Next level.
Two monster players together.
Again, the entire interview is phenomenal, but this is extremely special for me, especially now that Luke's son Trev is now out there, magical 🙌 Totally agree with Steve and David 🙌🙌❤️❤️
I just found out that Luke played on "I keep forgettin'" by Micheal Mcdonald...outstanding rhythm Guitar part!
If it came out in the 80s Luke probably played on it
2:09, is that the drumrack Jeff and his drumtech build before the Pearl drumrack was introduced?
I love these videos so much❤
Luuuuuuuke!
Attributes of a great working guitatrist:
1) An ear for the contemporary
2) Blessed with speed
3) Can sing
SL has all three, and then some.
Steve P ♡
Steve is one of the absolute best!!
Luke here...
Yes I agree is all true.!!!
We love Steve Lukather!!!!!!
LUKE!! One of the best guitar players to ever set foot on the planet. His contribution to music throughout the decades is unreal and unprecedented.

Luke is the most criminally underrated guitarist ever
The Luke, is my Inspiration
Steve "inserted into the timeline to shake shit up" Luke.
I don't think the legal issue was between Steve and Luke. I thought it was between the family of Jeff and Luke's using of the name.
Luke's talent is all about those 12":🤣🤣🤣
