His outro solo on Don Henley - Dirty Laundry is pretty cool!
Yeah it is!!
His solo on Lionel Richie - Running with the night.
That solo was just him warming up and improvising for his proper take only to realize it was recorded and the producer decided its good enough haha.
Keep these videos coming, any content with revv and shawn in it makes my day !
One of my favorites of all time. The outro solo is sick!!
Thanks so much! Yeah, that solo is killer on the out of that tune for sure. Sounded like he was just going for it.
was about to mention the same. I accidentally stumbled upon it while I was checkin my old mans vinyl collection back in the early nineties and I heard that song on a best of compilation from Lionel and I was immediately sure that it was Steve that I was listening to. still to this day my favorite solo from the meister.
Physical ..the Solo is just blowin
Yep!
Not a solo, but the hook to Beat it...
Absolutely legendary
About 10 years ago I purchased a Steve Lukather Family Reserve Signature Earnie Ball Luke. Steve has been one of my long time inspirations. I have all of his single albums. On one of his early releases, Ever Changing Times has a song titled "Never Ending Nights". Incredible solo on that song as well as incredible drumming by Abe Loboriel. For me Steve's most inspiring are his ballad solos. Certainly many of those with Toto. So much versatility! Any player that can hang with greats like Larry Carlton better know his stuff and of course Steve does.
The outro to Running with the night and the better Tubes solo. She,s a beauty
Always great stuff Shawn!
“Physical” Olivia Newton-John, the solo he played on that song, ultimately, made me realize that there was a connection between the guys playing the songs and musical elements, that I loved.
Late to the party… but Los Lobotomys’ “Candyman” (in some regions loged as a Lukather release) has some of my favourite Luke playing and tones ever. “Song for Jeff” in particular is simply soooo moving… I caught an “Ohne Filter” recording of Los Lobotomys late one night in the ‘90s on German TV and that’s what really got me into Luke… and saw me lusting after a Musicman, but that’s a different story alltogether.
There is a live video of Luke playing Cause We've Ended As Lovers with Lee Ritenour and his solo is mind-blowing. Technique galore, but even more flowing with fire and soul. One of my top Luke solos.
thanks, I'll check it out
YEP!!!
I just love his solo on Richard Marx's song Nothing you can do about it. The feel of that fricking thing is amazing, and the phrasing is so badass. Love that man!
Quincy Jones - Razzmatazz, Olivia Newton John - Physical, Boz Scaggs - A Clue and Randy Crawford - You might need somebody are some of my favourites
All great!!! Thanks for chiming in!
Steve’s solo on his cover of Bluebird s amazing. Starts all Who like and then explodes
Thriller work.
Lukather was one of my first guitar heroes. Still curves my mind with those melodies and combinations.
Yeah, he's top shelf for sure!
All Luke solos are great, Breakdown Dead Ahead (Boz Scaggs) is one of my favourites
This one is so good!
Yeah, the Scaggs stuff is killer for sure.
All of Luke’s solos sing like a vocalist
Agreed!!
Although not a solo - He played rhythm on MJ’s “Beat It” Also people don’t realize or think about what an awesome rhythm player he is.
Yeah, he's got a killer feel.
Great vid👌🏼 Best Lukather solo. 21st Century Blues
+on the lionel ritchie, the Boz Scaggs solos were UNREAL (especially breakdown dead ahead)
The thumb trick is great
Shawn, you don’t “rip off”…. You cordially borrow!😉. Fantastic playing on this one! Steve Lukather did an amazing solo way back; Break Down Dead Ahead with Boz Scaggs. His presence his undeniable. Crank it , put your head back and close your eyes. He stands out. You can hear his “TOTO” in there. That unique style and tone he administers. Damn love his work on that!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks so much!!
Lukather was one of my first guitar heroes. Still curves my mind with those melodies and combinations.
Yeah he's a killer player!
Rosanna was his ‘59 burst. Also used on Running with the night - Lionel Ritchie and Chicago’s Hard To Say I’m Sorry and the Rhythm parts to Beat It.
All the unique little licks and tasty fills on Marc Jordan Mannequin, Danny Peck Heart & Soul and some beautiful Boz Scaggs records, to name a few. Nobody did that better, imho.
Yup!!! Thanks for watching!!
2nd solo on Don Henley's Dirty Laundry
Running with the night - Lionel Richie
Physical - Olivia Newton John
Hard to say I'm sorry - Chicago
How am I supposed to live without you - Michael Bolton
My favorite non-Toto Lukather solo is „Never walk alone „
Los Lobotomys. Yeah, I forgot about that stuff! So good!!
LOVE that album!
Hi Shawn, Boz Scaggs Middle Man album, Breakdown Dead Ahead, also the outro solo on the track Angel You, Classic Lukey. Donna Summer's She works hard for the money, a bit of a cleaner tone on that track. Lionel Richie's Running with the Night, Lukey wanted to rerecord the solo's on that track because he said they were just run throughs, but Lionel said no Steve just leave them, they sound great. Joe Cocker's Civilized Man album, title track another killer solo.
All killer solos!!
Hi Mr. Tubbs, my favourite Luke solo is his live solo on While my Guitar gently weeps on Amsterdam live with Toto. It has all the goodness of Luke and it was the first video i saw him live too... so it has a special place in my heart!
Awesome!! Thanks for chiming in!
Running With the Night - Lionel Richie
Yep!
Ima mention Chicago 17's 'Stay the Night'..Landau did all the rhythm tracks(which is another lesson itself..) but the solo is Luke. The giveaway is the bending n vibrato, right before the modulation lick back into the chorus..
😉🤙🎸
Nice!! Thanks for chiming in!!
Oh my God Shawn, I think your pocket is truly full too !!!
Haha, thanks!
Love that tone!
Thanks!!
I’ve a beautiful quilted cherry burst luke III
best and most beautiful guitar I’ve ever owned. Steve has influenced me more than any other guitarist
in lukes starlicks video he mentioned that it was composed. still genius. the outro solo tho is completely improvised and mind-blowing. he was using his 59 burst and a fender deluxe. that sound we have to thank Quincy jones for. he told Luke in the studio whilst recording thriller that his Marshalls sound too big. the deluxe and the burst are Lukes major signature tones from that era and I just love it. same as you Shawn, his playing is very unmistakable and unique.
Great, great video, and to my ears you nailed that solo dead on! While that middle solo of Rosanna is beautiful, it was the outro solo that really caught my ear first time I heard it, all those years ago! I think it may have been the first time I heard that sort of jazzy, outside playing in a rock tune. I know there are plenty of TH-cam lessons on that solo as well, but I would love to get your take on it, maybe in a Part 2 to this video?
Yeah, the solo on the out of that tune is killing!!
it's only my heart - michael bolton
The Tubes man I ain’t listen to them in years, I’ll be queuing that up soon.
Yeah, they were a cool band.
Great video Shawn. Steve Lukather has been my idol for many years. Asides from Steve's incredible work with Toto, my favourite guitar solo from Steve other than Toto is featured on Lionel Richie's "Running with The Night". And there are numerous other great solos from Steve. However, the outdo solo on Rosanna is f......... killer. Thanks again for doing this Shawn. Steve Lukather has definitely inspired so many guitar players of my generation. Cheers.
Yeah, it's crazy how amazing Steve Lukather is and how inspiring he's been! Thanks for chiming in Sam!!
Has to be running with the night lionel richie for me. I understand Luke hit a one live take on this. My all time favourite player
Yeah, great solo for sure!!
Luke also came up with the solo for the Alone from Heart. He played on the original demo from the song writers. Howard Leese liked the solo so much he pretty much copied it note for note.
Dirty Laundry by Don Henley.... End/outro solo is Steve. Though sadly Steve was schooled on this by Joe Walsh who did the middle solo with delay.
Joe Walsh and Steve Lukather are completely different players and yet they both fit right into that song. That's guitar playing!! Thanks for chiming in!
Check out Prisoner, by Cher, Luke’s solo is absolutely amazing!
Will do!!
Steve Lukather & Los Lobotomys - Never Walk Alone [Live] - 2nd solo
Indeed!
Man SHAWN so so close, I LOVE how you talked about his underrated / somewhat unknown track by the tubes which Steve did but you really missed the best one- you were around in this time well before me but the best underrated/ unknown Lukather Solo that myself and many other fans would probably love to see was one he Also did for the tubes on a song from
*1981's Gonna get it next time*
^
So groovy, so heavy, so 80s with the guitar , the drums in the pocket, synth in the backgrounds and in a very underrated unknown track in the ( ive said those 2 words too many times! ) Chevy chase's 1981 comedy *Modern problems*
^
No good covers, attempts renditions etc on TH-cam. It would be so damn cool to see you make a part 2 right here and cover the track he did for the tubes, sounds like Drop D or d standard. Haunting intro solo melody, killer grooving riff with the bass and synth and very toto like synth bridge because it still had the procarros on the track as well!
^
Just an underrated gem my favourites 1980 unknown song that was done for a movie that ended up being forgettable and as a result this song did not really get out there.
It sounds like TOTO/ foreigner / tubes mashed with Pink floyd with the vibe synth fade out in the outer especially..
Please give this a listen and hopefully if ever possible a lesson on it to follow up! Hearing you play the intro solo, the main riff, and the main solo outro solo to me is lukather in a nutshell you just know it's him doing his thing on a track in probably very little time one day in the studio to be made for a movie.
Here's the song/ link bellow
Cheers from Niagara falls Canada Shawn and REVV 🙏🏻🤟🏻

Wow, I do remember all of that!! Thanks so much for chiming in Adam!!
Good stuff bro. Love me some Lukather
Thanks so much!!
You’re correct about the main solo. It was composed. The outro solo was completely improvised. It was never supposed to happen. Jeff kept playing so Paich and Luke kept playing too. By the way Shawn, that’s a gorgeous Les Paul. Nice playing as always.
Thanks so much for chiming in on this!!!
I've heard the Zappa story, glad Steve survived.
It's amazing anyone could survive!!! Zappa was crazy talented.
Literally anything SL does .....like that video when he blasts his guitar when his next door neighbour pisses him off when building work at 7:00 am 😂😅
3 iconic & best solos/work from Steve:
America - Survival
Chicago - Hard To Say I'm Sorry
Randy Crawford - You Might Need Somebody
Olivia Newton John physical, Live tour he did with Larry Carlton, just breathtaking. No substitutions?
I haven't checked that out. I'll get at it for sure!
I Love L.A. by Randy Newman is a favorite!
YES!!! Good one!!
Breakdown Dead Ahead by Boz Scaggs. Lukather did not the amazing solo to that song in believe. Loved it immediately upon hearing it.
Chet
Michael Bolton/ it’s only my heart, Cher/ I found someone, Richard Marx/ Rush Street album.
Toto - Kingdom of Desire.
Luke album from 97
Nice!!
Let's get physical- Olivia Newton John
Yeah that's a good one!
He played rhythm on MJ’s - Beat it!
Yep!
Lionel Richie Running with the Night
Yep!
Christopher Cross: „All right“
Christopher Cross is no slouch himself!!
@@ShawnTubbs underrated yes. I used to think that he is playing this solo, but it sounds a bit to lukish :-)
His fusion style solo starting at 27:35 th-cam.com/video/kRVzB4BvAeo/w-d-xo.html
Yep the LL stuff is insane!!
Beautiful Liar - Brian Culbertson
Thanks for chiming in!!
Born Yesterday from Candyman
Yeah, the Los Lobotomys stuff is great.
rumor has it... it wasn't eddie with michael jackson. beat it.
Luke is THE MIST UNDERRATED GUITAR GOD ON EARTH.
For me, it's Daryl Stuermer. (Jean Luc Ponty, Genesis)
Dirty laundry
Luke is simply bad!!!
Yeah, he's one the best in the biz!
@@ShawnTubbs you’re pretty dang good yourself Brother and that would be an understatement to say the least!
@@davidwright9550 Thanks very much, you're very kind.
Check Richard Watson's YT channel for some great insights and teaching of Luke, and all the LA sessions guys.
Yep Rich is awesome!!
