I met Steve when Toto did their last tour to New Zealand, actually chatted to him at the airport. What an incredibly sweet, nice, and humble person! And then, at the show that night, he looked out into the audience and saw me, and just smiled and waved to me. Left me feeling so great!
One of Steve’s attributes that made him Excel, is that Steve is an incredible show man. Steve is very humble, but when I went to see Toto, I could not get my eyes off him. His crazy outfits, crazy hair, crazy glasses, crazy moves and crazy sounds. Steve was the Show. If you have never seen Toto, look at old performances.
Human Nature is really a magical song... The chord progressions, the arrangements, the melodies... Everything on that song is simply amazing... One in a million. Love it.
Max Mery, exactly so. I also regard "Human Nature" as a masterpiece. Here's another musician who got inspired by Steve Porcaro's awesome creation. Enjoy. ruclips.net/video/3oxjjPcjibo/видео.html&start_radio=1
Jeff would turn 65 this year if i am not mistaken..and boy he would have looked a lot like Steve i think. Us - as drummers miss him a lot. Thank you for that interview Dom.
Steve Porcaro doesn’t give himself the credit he deserves. He’s Great. He’s one of the Best Ever. I discovered him playing the piano JoJo by Boz Scaggs in around 1971. I saw him on the video as Boz starting singing “Look Out Behind You..” and comes up behind Steve. Steve turns around smiling, keeps playing and rocking.... Steve was loving it and I saw him rocking it..... I’m now his Fan forever. Steve, keep rocking. You’re a gift to music and my love of music. Love when you play with Boz.
...i think when you come from the Porcaro family it is hard to see how great you really are...his TOTO contributions made those LPs so unique...his added flavorings...
Amazing Steve Porcaro! Thanks for the insight...What a cool history lesson. And bless the Porcaro Family! Awesome to see that the never dying spark lives on in you, just as in your heritage...! THANKS
Steve's comments highlight a nice simple quote from the great Deep Purple drummer Ian Piece : "Don't try to be the number two anyone else, always be the number one you."
This is just pure Gold . Steve is ONE of a kind for sure . To hear him talking about his/their upbringing and how everything came together is absolutely heartwarming and exiting .

eric Wilhelm, what a marvelous comment. Thank you for sharing it with the world. I watched some interviews with Steve and he seem such a humble human being besides being a talented musician. Good music has the tremendous power to inspire, elevate the spirit and heal. Music and love are the ultimate healers. Here's the most recent "Human Nature" version I could find. Enjoy and God Bless the sound of Music. ruclips.net/video/3oxjjPcjibo/видео.html&start_radio=1
Mr. Famularo! You’ve done countless of great interviews over the years, but this one here with the great Steve Porcaro is definitely a gem. It was wonderful to get his insights on the Porcaro family and his journey as a musician. Also, the humility of this guy, just like Jeff, amazing. Thank you Dom for all that you do my friend. Manny blessings to you sir.
I still have a Jeff Porcaro Special issue of France's "Batteur Magazine" from 1995, including an interview with Dom. Great show, Mr Famularo!! Cheers from France!!
So cool that Steve mentions Glen Campbell and his show. Glen talked about Marty and Joe quite a bit and I remember Marty's name on some of our big charts. Those were rich days for music in LA and I'm so grateful that I got to soak up so much history working with Glen so long. Hope to meet Steve someday!
Indeed with the Porcaro's there was the highest level in musician rock scene and the rest of the music styles. Still so impressed by brother Jeff Porcaro...the ultimate drummer
Steve has the real skills and creativity that you don't hear often. I still listen to his album every week. So glad that I got to chat with him a bit at Mambos at David Garfield's show in 2013. Thanks for filming this!
He is right about the finishing part, it is an art. I have never managed to finish anything, just Terabytes of bit and bobs. I will include it in my will and only when my children make finished songs out of the debris, they will see any money :D
Caught Steve, Paich, and Newton Howard jamming at the Atlanta NAMM in 1982/83... it was a small room with three stacks of keyboards... never heard anything before or since that blew me away like that session did. Steve was really down to earth and gave me a few minutes of his time to answer questions.
Joe Porcaro Tought me how to swing , independence and Traditional Style in 1988 at P I T .. I'll always remember how easy going and kind hearted he was ..One of the Greats !
In 2009, I asked via the web, for one of Papa Joe's "Drum Set Method". As a keys player of some 40 years, that 5 line, 4 space drum legend screws with my head, and my 20/50 eyesight, but.... i've had it for this long. You start on pp1, and go at each example for different tempos. I will be 70 when I hit page 250.
@ Dukerbud 88 ... Cool. Back in the mid 80s when I was a teenager in my first group we played 'Hold the Line' but I'm glad that no recording or footage survives concerning our efforts as I had only been playing guitar for just over one year ! lol
My fave songwriter in toto! The little things, bend, In a little while and chase the rain are phenomenal tracks. I am so pleased he is writing again and his solo album is brilliant. I hope he releases another one soon.
Jaime Castro Hernán-Gómez, young musicians all around the world are inspired by the Porcaro brothers in different ways. Here's the proof. Have a great day and yes, we are thankful to Steve for his masterpiece "Human Nature". Here's the latest proof that the Porcaros music is still inspirational. Enjoy. ruclips.net/video/3oxjjPcjibo/видео.html&start_radio=1
I think the same thing every time I see a different video of him too. Steve displays incredible class, dignity, and is such a major talent, just like his fallen brothers. He is keeping the legacy alive as most have mentioned here.
He mentioned Jim Gordon, he was my 'grant' buddy, took me to the sessions where he recorded as a trio w fagan and becker..rikki..Ringo's Tom's were on da bassdrum, The original Ludwig's, I was checking the tuning when alone in Studio Life was good! Alohas
Beautiful introduction Dom, indeed the Porcaro family is royalty, as musicians of course, but also as human being, what a bunch of sweet clever people, you can't help but love them !!! I have the chance to have met them all...
Toto, Doobie Brothers, Steely Dan, Asia , eagles had the greatest session and live musicians ever. They were the real musicians for the big haired glam rock bands. Just read those old album covers these guys played and arranged most of those bands songs. To the lutthakers, pocaros, Van Halen's, paichs, McDonald's, and fagen,
There is a film or a tv series in the Porcaro family story. I had the chance to meet Steve, Mike and their parents a couple of times. Gracious people! And so talented.
this was such a true delight of interview, 'could really feel the presence of porcaro energetically orchestrate his personality into the time slot:) thank you for this post:)
The Porcaro family so great. When I was a MI student and taking Joe Dorio class on playing standards and every week had to play in front of Joe Dorio, Joe Porcaro, and Bob Magnuson scary but they were always so mellow to ease us while giving their comments and advice. Also good to hear Steve Porcaro mention Dick Grove School where I worked for many years.
Were you ever able to engage in conversation with Joe Porcaro? It's mind blowing the great musicianship from one family and then for their schoolmate to be Steve Lukather, my personal all time favorite guitarist.
@@GlobalDrumming I'm watching it RIGHT NOW..LOL, Joe is a sweet man and you conduct a fantastic interview. I just struck gold with your Chanel. Thank you.
First time I saw Steve porcaro s name on an album was in 1980 I bought I am by EW&F! Steve lukather was also on there and David foster! Steve porcaro was credited with Synth programming! Then as I bought more albums his name and the other guys in toto kept popping up! I wasn't aware of toto but I recognised their names at that time! Steve is great!' His contribution to toto as important as lukather and paich for sure!
Gosh Steve! I was Your Dad's student in Sherman Oaks, in '75..Lester Sill's family friends.. What a Story! Pipe organs and All..Alohas We are friends on another net..goodman
I was in the Orlando Airport years ago and a very intelligent attractive young woman introduced herself to me as the cousin of the Porcaro brothers. That was a missed opportunity. I always fall for witches. Serves me right.
One of the last great recordings of the brothers together and to show off Steve's songwriting // STEVE PORCARO - 'BACK TO YOU' // ruclips.net/video/8yCZCXvGHtI/видео.html // 1983 outtake that wound up on his first solo album "Someday/Somehow" in 2016 with his brothers Jeff & Mike (posthumously). The rapid synths, the tight drumming, the pocket bass fills, and the sense of lyrical urgency in the later years of a songwriter. Feel it all in this song. Sounds especially cool in headphones, especially with the synth patterns.
There is an episode of Justified where Steve pulls out a TOTO song off Hydra...Angela (Bobby Kimball's best vocal track ever)...only a hard core TOTO fan would pick up that melody...kinda like watching The Andy Griffith Show and hearing melodies later used on Willy Wonka movie...
![Stromae, Pomme - “Ma Meilleure Ennemie” (from Arcane Season 2) [Official Visualizer]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/1F3OGIFnW1k/mqdefault.jpg)
The Porcaro family is all class. Steve carries the torch. A humble, caring, compassionate man and a friend. We love you Steve.
I'll drink to that! Not just musicians, but "creators". What a family!
I met Steve when Toto did their last tour to New Zealand, actually chatted to him at the airport. What an incredibly sweet, nice, and humble person! And then, at the show that night, he looked out into the audience and saw me, and just smiled and waved to me. Left me feeling so great!
Amen. The more I am learning about the family, the more I appreciate their music.
the Porcaro family IS absolute royalty. Jeff is one of my all-time favorite drummers. His playing was impeccable.
One of Steve’s attributes that made him Excel, is that Steve is an incredible show man. Steve is very humble, but when I went to see Toto, I could not get my eyes off him. His crazy outfits, crazy hair, crazy glasses, crazy moves and crazy sounds. Steve was the Show. If you have never seen Toto, look at old performances.

Steve porcaro is just so humble 💕
What an amazing vivacious energy Steve is . I Luv him.

Steve was loving it and I saw him rocking it..... I’m now his Fan forever. Steve, keep rocking. You’re a gift to music and my love of music. Love when you play with Boz.
Steve IS amazing....but that is Randy Kerber on piano in the JOJO video
...i think when you come from the Porcaro family it is hard to see how great you really are...his TOTO contributions made those LPs so unique...his added flavorings...
He is one of the main guys I heard and I'm still a major fan. He, seemingly, pulls MIDI patches outta thin air. That's a God-Given Gift.
No doubt! Stevie P is 'The Best' at what he does hands down, you have wonderful taste in musicians Bev, wish u all the Best
Amazing Steve Porcaro! Thanks for the insight...What a cool history lesson. And bless the Porcaro Family! Awesome to see that the never dying spark lives on in you, just as in your heritage...! THANKS
Steve's comments highlight a nice simple quote from the great Deep Purple drummer Ian Piece : "Don't try to be the number two anyone else, always be the number one you."

Steve is responsible for writing two of my al-time favourite Toto songs ... 'Takin' It Back' and 'It's a Feeling' !
Likewise!
...big time!
😎🍷🎸
He also wrote Michael Jackson's "Human Nature" which is by far my favorite MJ song.

Takin' It Back is one of my all time favs. I used to play that with my old time friend/guitar player.

Artist Is artist and teacher are teacher, It Is often difficult or maybe impossible to find on the same person.😊
Aside from movie soundtracks and writing human nature and being keyboardist of Toto, what else is Steve doing.?
What's the music in the background? It sounds like jeff's playing
I hope Steve now lectures
