Session musicians are a whole different animal. The way they are able to adapt and perform in short order is remarkable. They are definitely the unsung heroes of the music industry.

Those are the guys who plays in the Michael Jackson's album BAD ...

Lukather is actually also a competent singer and piano player since that was his first instrument. He plays guitar, piano and sings on the Toto track I Will Remember.

@bigredmatt1011 Год назад

Jeff Porcaro is one of the best drummers in history. His ability to drive a groove was second to none. He never did too much.

@ReverseFlash23 Год назад

I had the same feeling Dave Grohl from Nirvana. He drove the songs.

@mikosoft 9 месяцев назад

Jeff even said himself he doesn't like doing solos because he's more interested in doing a good groove to song than being flashy. I know a guy who recorded an album with him and he said Jeff was very kind and humble but the grooves that he laid down were second to none.

@nickavenoso7851 7 месяцев назад

Jeff, Neil Peart and Phil Collins were the three drummers that inspired me to become a drummer. I admired (and still do) Jeff because he was more interested in serving the song rather than showing off.

@seanbarron2890 Год назад

My favourite is Rosana, I just love how the opening line trips off the tongue but the vocal range is very enjoyable as well plus that instrumental jazzy outro. This band definitely deserved to be a lot bigger than they were. So great to see and hear the praise for session musicians. While they get a credit when they contribute, they don't get THE credit they should. This was from an era when I felt so much music coming from America was well-written, well-performed and just so great to listen to.

@Captain_Hindsight Год назад

Rick Beato has a superb breakdown of Rosanna and it made me appreciate them as musicians even more.

@manifestgtr Год назад

These guys were all over Michael Jackson’s Thriller album…the synth player wrote “human nature” which is a *serious* highlight and Steve (the guitarist) played most of those funky guitar licks that everyone knows to this day. Regarding this tune, “hold the line”, I’m always impressed during the chorus. How any dude can hit those highest harmonies with any sense of musicality is completely beyond me. I can squeak my way up to an E on my very best days and this is obviously higher than that…at least an F-F#.

@miccellomann Год назад

Bobby Kimball not only did the lead vocal, he also did the background vocals with Luke

@user-hk4dn6jg5x 10 месяцев назад

My favorite Toto song is Roseanna. Vocals are shared between Steve Lukather, the guitar player, and Bobby Kimball, the lead singer you so raved about. The drummer, Jeff Porcaro, does some interesting fills that are sort of unique to him and drum students learn this as the Porcaro shuffle. Pretty cool! Another more subdued song is “99”. Give a listen.

@kristinemacdougall 7 месяцев назад

@richardwatkins2402 Год назад

Thank you for reacting to this song, I've been a fan of this band for many years now, and have so many favourite songs, they have done quite a lot of albums with many great songs on them, so it's hard to choose one. I highly recommend going to see them live, even though there is only two original members Steve Lukather ( guitar ) and Joe Williams ( singer who occasionally, but now permanently replaced Bobby Kimball who's in this video ) they are still a great band to see live. I understand they will be touring Europe ( hopefully UK ) in 2023/24 with Journey supporting them. Bobby was a fantastic singer but now sadly suffers with dementia.

They started the band in highschool. They weren’t session musicians who started a band. They just became in demand studio artists WHILE THEY WERE DEVELOPING THE BAND. Long before the first album, before Bobby joined after they noticed him for his work with the members of 3DN. They were Toto first. Jeff and David started it. Band nerds in Highschool.

Toto is such a versatile virtuosic band of several different influences: R&B, Soul, Jazz and of course Hard Rock. Some of their songs contain just one or two of these things, while others - like this song and especially "Rosanna" - are a combination of all the above. Also, with "Hold The Line," Toto literally pioneered the use of the piano / keyboard riff along with Hard Rock guitar, and directly influenced Jefferson Starship to do that on their amazing Hard Rock songs "Jane" and "Find Your Way Back." (Keyboardist David Freiberg admitted this in a recent interview.) Toto is a very unique band that really bridged genres and every single one of their 6 original members were absolute virtuosos at their respective instruments.
