Jeff Porcaro best session drummer and way ahead his time. Could play the most impossible drum parts that others struggled to play. He is greatly missed and gone way too soon.
@kevinhawbaker73115 ай бұрын
The drummer was the late Jeff Porcaro. He was also in Steely Dan for a time. He played on literally hundreds of hit records during that era. He was one of the most recorded session drummers in history. Check out his Wikipedia and look at the list of hits he played on. It is mind blowing. All of the Toto guys were in demand session players. Steve Lukather - guitar, David Paich - keys, Steve Porcaro - keys and Mike Porcaro - bass. It seems that every major hit in the late 70's and 80's had one or more Toto guys playing on it - Michael Jackson's Thriller album, Earth Wind and Fire, Lionel RItchie, etc. etc. They were absolutely amazing.

In a Jeff Porcaro interview he once said he never did a drum solo in a live concert. He said that was because his job was to keep time and nothing else. He was one of the best time keepers ever. The entire band was a more modern version of the Wrecking Crew studio session players in the 60's. The only Toto member I ever met was Luke and he was exactly like he is in every interview I've seen him in. Like he is talking to a friend.

Your response to "Toto - Stop Loving You" resonates deeply with me, and sparks a flood of emotions and memories. To me, this song feels like a companion piece to "Toto - Pamela," each carrying its own poignant significance. Jeff Porcaro, the rhythmic genius behind the band, stands as a beacon among drummers of the 70s, 80s, and 90s in Los Angeles. His intuitive groove, impeccable timing, and signature shuffle are testaments to his unparalleled skill. His untimely passing in 1992 was a devastating loss to the music world, leaving behind a void that can never be filled. I imagine Jeff in heaven giving drum lessons to the Angels. Thank you, Rob and Amber, for acknowledging this song. If you're open to exploring more of Toto's repertoire, "Til The End" featuring Paula Abdul's choreography in the music video is a gem worth discovering. 🙂

Jay and Amber, excellent observation that notes and dynamics were "perfectly placed". The band complements the singer and "doesn't overpower". For the members of TOTO, the song is King, that is one of the key reasons they were called for so many sessions. They always did what was best for song. Along with the musicians of TOTO and the Wrecking Crew there was another collection of musicians known as 'The Section' (aka 'The Immediate Family'). Members of the Section are guitarist Danny Kortchmar, keyboardist Craig Doerge, bassist Leland Sklar, and drummer Russ Kunkel along with guitarist Waddy Wachtel and mult-instumentalist David Lindley. The Section worked with artists such as Joni Mitchell, James Taylor, Phil Collins, Carole King, Stevie Nicks and Linda Ronstadt and others. 🎸😎

Supposedly that depends on who you ask.

First, I just wanted to say thank you for reacting to Toto’s music. They’ve been my favorite band since I first heard them at the age of 14 when a school friend let me borrow their debut album back in 1978. I did get the opportunity to see them play live when drummer Jeff Porcaro was still with us (and five more shows after his death). I was also very lucky to meet him after one concert and before another show. He was just the most humble, nicest guy you’d ever want to meet. Especially since he was one of my musical heroes. Since you mentioned you enjoyed Jeff’s drumming here are a few songs I would recommend listening to from the remastered albums if possible: “You Are the Flower” (1978) - from their debut Album Toto. Lead vocals by original lead singer Bobby Kimball. “Hydra” (1979) - from their second album Hydra. This is their most Prog/Rock sounding tune. It also is very cinematic and has a very “BIG” sound and arrangement. Lead vocals by keyboardist David Paich. “Mama” (1979) - also from Hydra. Lead vocals by Bobby Kimball. This is a song where Jeff is playing his famous shuffle groove. Speaking of which, Jeff was the drummer on the Michael McDonald song “I Keep Forgettin’”. “Waiting For Your Love” (1982) - from the album Toto IV. Very nice dance groove. Lead vocals by Bobby Kimball. “Till The End” (1986) - from their Fahrenheit album. Joseph Williams, who also was lead vocals on “Stop Loving You”, shines bright here as well. “Somewhere Tonight” (1986) - also from Fahrenheit. It has a reggae feel to it. Lead vocals by Joseph Williams. “These Chains” (1988) - From the Seventh One album. Another shuffle tune from Jeff. Lead vocals by guitarist Steve Lukather.

White Sister was their rock song from their 2nd album Hydra (2 awesome guitar solos by Steve Lukather). It's still frequently played during their concerts even now. If you want to hear an astounding drumming performance by Jeff Porcaro, watch their video for Goodbye Elinore from their 3rd album Turn Back... They are touring with Journey for part of this year....

Best drummer ever. I'm hardcore on that issue. As a session player, he played on thousands of tracks, many you already love. Just like the other members of the band. Jay, watch the video with your eyes open next time and keep them peeled on Jeff. Like Amber said, he was bashing the hell outta those skins and having a blast. The other great thing about this song is Joseph Williams. He's my favorite Toto singer (all due respect to Bobby Kimball). This band is made up of the best players in the biz. And ALL of their albums are gems. Watch the videos guys. These are musical genius nerds doing their best to make MTV stuff. It's adorable (and sometimes awkward). I love that about them. I'm so deliriously happy right now. Maybe the most excited I've ever been. Toto doesn't get even remotely enough love. Another important point, all members wrote and co-wrote these amazing songs. Where to go next? Till The End, video featuring Paula Abdul as the lead dancer, and Joe dressed up like a funky bandolero dude. Dance to it, shred air guitar, whatever - kzbin.info/www/bejne/h5bGqoh7q9t-o68si=_pnjmnriufhSRsQf. Pamela, funky AF, and that guitar? Wow - kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3TUamprZtKCfNEsi=DvLkYe88_XCJDkET FUN FACT: Joseph Williams is the son of Oscar-winning legend, Star Wars composer John Williams. DO MORE TOTO!

Fun fact! The scat singer in the bridge is the great Jon Anderson from yes!! And James pankow (trombonist) from Chicago performed and arranged the horns on this tune!!
