STEVE LUKATHER – BRIDGES
Toto guitarist and band leader Steve Lukather will release his ninth solo album this week.
Regarding the new album, which is called Bridges:
“I see it as a bridge between my solo music and TOTO music. The fact that Joseph Williams, David Paich and I wrote most of the record, and the fact I invited many of the old TOTO gang to come and play, co-writers like Randy Goodrum and Stan Lynch brings all this together. It also proves that most of my old pals and I are still great friends, and I wanted to do a record ‘in the style of,’ as TOTO will never record another studio album. This is as close as we will get.”
