Many thanks to Scott for posting more of Steve's video clips!
Someone alse did a while back and I downloaded them then (maybe it was Scott?)
Anyways, Lukather appears to be a guitarist that I want to know more about.
Though I a familiar with a few songs from Toto, (Rosanna, Africa, Hold the Line) it doesn't really show me his abilities.
So with that, could someone direct me to some favourite CDs, DVDs, etc!!
I am hungry to explore some new music!!
It all depends on what type of music you want to hear. Los Lobotomys Candyman is a great album, there are always Toto, albums l love Kingdom of Desire and Tambu (I think Luke had a bitmore control on these albums, they have more guitar driven songs)
The toto live in amsterdam Dvd is very cool, l have a Jeff Beck, Santana and Steve Lukather concert from '89, l think, and l think Luke show them both up.
My recommendation.
Candyman - bit a mixer of everything Blues/Fusion/rock.
Kingdom Of Desire - It's got some rockers on there, also some mellow stuff. I
guess the same thing can be said about Tambu, but it's like the next step.
Steve Lukather Lukather- Lukes first solo album, l love it, sounds like 80's rock music, but it's got some great songs and some great guitar playing on there, it's got a host of guest players, Steve Stevens, Eddie Van Halen, Jeff Porcaro etc.
Steve Lukather Luke - Luke's seconds solo album, l was very surprised by this album, some things on this disc l wouldn't of execpted on one of Luke solo albums, but it still has some great songs, great playing.
I could of recemmended some bootleg stuff, but these above albums are normally avaliable in every record store, and easy to find, where bootlegs are not easy to find, espessally since you just want to sample sone of Lukes work.
Heres a link to Luke body of work, well most of it anyway. Quite impressive.
