Late Night’s music…Steve Lukather – Bridges

Few minutes after midnight this masterpiece released last year from the mighty Steve Lukather keeps me company!
Check it out and enjoy….

*description from his bandcamp page:

Over the course of five decades Steve Lukather has placed an indelible stamp on pop culture. Alongside his tenure as the only member of TOTO to never take a hiatus from the band, he has performed on thousands of albums as a session musician. Amongst these musical contributions are some of the most successful, influential and enduring records of all-time including Michael Jackson’s Thriller. Additionally, he released a memoir titled The Gospel According To Luke which was a global best-seller. He continues to be TOTO’s band leader, a long-tenured member of Ringo’s All-Starr Band, and a solo artist.

Luke’s ninth solo album, titled BRIDGES, could not be more accurately titled. He shares, “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.”
