- This week's episode of Guess That Record is a big one, as Jackson interviews keyboardist David Paich from Toto! As a founding member of Toto, David wrote the band's biggest songs including Hold the Line, Rosanna, and the all-time classic Africa (a song in which David also handles the lead vocal duties). Outside of his work with Toto, David has been a prolific session player having played on albums such as Silk Degrees by Boz Scaggs, and Michael Jackson's Thriller. In this episode, Jackson and David talk about how his father's music career inspired him, how songs like Africa continue to be relevant, and what it's like to work with famous musicians.

Great interview... lots of interesting details I've never heard before... very good job and thank you David Paich
Thank you so much! David is amazing
This was a fantastic interview. No offense Jackson, but I was not familiar with you, and I had low expectations at the beginning of the interview. Kind of like, “who is this kid that thinks he can interview David Paich?” But you had clearly prepared very thoroughly for this interview, and you developed questions which were not the same old questions that David has probably been asked a hundred times. David was such a good sport throughout the interview, and he seemed to also appreciate your questions and your level of preparation. Keep up the good work Jackson, and thank you David Paich for being so forthcoming!
Thank you so much! I appreciate the kind words, and I'm glad you liked the interview.
This was great man,I don’t know how it doesn’t have more views this is insane.
Thanks, glad you liked it!
Absolutely love David! Really nice interview. Toto is and was spectacular. Top shelf musicians. Paich is so personable. How nice that he spoke with you. ❤👍🏼
Glad you liked it! It's one of my favorite episodes for sure, David is awesome!
I would say his favorite video that he was in would be “I Love LA” by Randy Newman. Toto is riding around in the car with him.
That's a great song and a great video!
Great questions, thank you
Absolutely! Thanks for checking out the video
His work on Steely Dan’s Pretzel Logic is also a highlight of David’s playing career, as quoted by studio legend Michael Omartian
@@Constantijn09 There's so much amazing work from David it's hard to cover in one interview!
@@guessthatrecord indeed, he is just one of those cats, whose discography is as large as the Oxford Dictionary
maravilha
Lowdown is not disco IMHO - no four on the floor beat - to me, it has more of an RnB/Jazzy groove.
I agree, although I think it is definitely disco adjacent considering it's overall sound and when it was released.
