The little fill / riff part in Rosanna before the "meet you all the way" is insane how fast he finds his place on the other keyboard and plays it flawlessly every time
Phillinganes, Lukather, Jeff and Steve Porcaro, Laboriel, Jerry Hey and Castro were probably the most used session instrumentalists in the music industry the late 70s into the 90s. They tried to stay out of the spotlight but the spotlight eventually found them today. 🤣🤣
If I'm not mistaken, he was the keyboardist in the 2005-2010 TOTO tours. Wow, he is such a pro in keyboard parts, and love that he added his flavor. I'm glad this was recommended to me.
Greg Phillinganes is a rare genius, we are blessed to be able to enjoy his decades of musics in the 70-90s 💞🙏 unlike today's kids which enjoy canned pre programmed dry noise they call "music"
@@christophermorrison8632 great ear, i’ve probably listened to the nightfly album a few hundred times but never spotted that similarity in the piano solo until replaying them just now
What a TALENT!!! Greg is definitely a legend in the keyboards world. Oh, and how he enjoys what he does! Hats off to this musician who has contributed to many wonderful songs 🧡😁🎹🎶
Awesome~!! I love a keyboardist that PLAYS the song, and not plays over dubs. I'd love to catch a show. This is extremely hard to pull off live, Excellent.
Brilliant. It’s like I know it can be played, but every time I’m like: how does he do that! But seriously, Greg is a top tier keys player. It doesn’t get any better than this, as far as sidemanship is concerned
Greg is a mad man on the keys.... Michael Jackson right hand man in the early days of Thriller and Off the wall. This is Greg at his best.... here.... David Paich freaking love Greg
This is the kind of guy you definitely want in your band.
Stevie Wonder agrees
Definitely
Want “in your band”? This man IS your band! 😎
yes
John Mayer understood the assignment.
The little fill / riff part in Rosanna before the "meet you all the way" is insane how fast he finds his place on the other keyboard and plays it flawlessly every time
Right!
@@REM977 Insane is right!
Greg is just session/studio/live legend - period. Man's name is all over everything - for DECADES
Completely sick!
The look on his face when he's playing is is hilarious. Like Yeah I know I'm fuckin good
Right,and he is😉
Absolute pro legend. The list of iconic stuff he's played on is absolutely nuts..... like, tonnes of culturally significant tunes. Love his work.
Ohh this guy, is spot on with his musicality.....is that a word...I hope so!
This guy is a Synths / Keyboards HERO. Totally respect and admire him.
I have also admired Greg's phenomenal keyboard abilities and knowledge, he is a Beast.
@Randy A 😸💯
Greg is the be-all, end-all of keyboardists. The best. Noone better.
This shit is so damn bad ass. So much talent!
Agreed! To have just a fraction of his skills would be amazing.
This guy is a musical genius one of a kind.
Phillinganes is incredible.

Great music!Oh to be back in the 80s listening to Toto hits on the radio….🙂
His inspiration can be heard today!
Hes the real star *..on so many records...cause he's great
Greg is a hero of mine. Just a phenomenal player!!
Love Greg. Saw him w/ Toto on their 2007-08 tour; hope to see him again sometime.
If I'm not mistaken, he was the keyboardist in the 2005-2010 TOTO tours.
Wow, he is such a pro in keyboard parts, and love that he added his flavor.
I'm glad this was recommended to me.
Yes & he's back touring with them again now 😀
Wow...this guy is fantastic!!!! very impressive!!!

He’s a busy man on stage . Right up there with Rick Wakeman & Keith Emerson
I always love Greg's little "yeah, I just did that" smirk
Watching a master go over his rig and then the speed in which he switches between the keyboards is amazing. Just incredible.
Greg you’re Awesome!You’re the Best of the Best!
Give that talented man a big pay raise.
That much talent is just inconceivable, superhuman
Wow… you nailed it! Very fun
Just wow. This man and Geoff Downes are two of my favorites.
those africa patches are beautiful man
can't even find sounds like that on the internet
Sin desmerecer, porque siempre a habido mucha calidad en esta banda. Greg es el mejor de todos los tiempos en cuanto a ejecución.
This Artist is incredible! In my point of view one of the best shows of Toto was in 2007.
O yes
Greg.. Man what a talent.. Most would sequence these bits and play it safe
Fantastic musician. Always admired this guy!
What an amazing career. 🙏
Love Greg. He is a beast!! Amazing talent.
One word: OUTSTANDING!!!
Practically an octopus! What a great musician. 👏
Greg is one of the Greatest Keyboard Players and all around Musicians! He's played on some of the Greatest Hits of All Time! 🎹
This is fantastic! What a nice person and super talented musician!
The moment, when I first heard about him was when I listened to the piano-solo on "Ruby Baby" by Donald Fagen. Still a phenomenal solo! 👍🙏👌
Yep, I'd swear he references 'you really got me' by the Kinks in there.

Holy shit! He makes it look easy! 🔥
Just perfect! In fact, Toto's 2007 Africa version with Greg is my top favorite.
Awesome~!! I love a keyboardist that PLAYS the song, and not plays over dubs. I'd love to catch a show. This is extremely hard to pull off live, Excellent.

I needed this video 30 years ago when I was playing these songs with my band
Phillanges is one hell of a talented player!
Mind boggling brilliance
This THE guy you want in your band…
Superb independence between his left and right hands.
This is why he’s so successful !!! Even his live playing is done with a production mindset

Still my fav keyboardist!
Awesome talent!!!

The man literally wrote the soundtrack of the last four decades, truly amazing.
Absolutely awesome
this guy may only have 2 hands, but 4 brains. Saw him live this year just incredible.
He’s an octopus!😂 Outrageous talent and dexterity ❤
Wow man. Awesome Greg 👏👏👏
Brilliant. It’s like I know it can be played, but every time I’m like: how does he do that!
But seriously, Greg is a top tier keys player. It doesn’t get any better than this, as far as sidemanship is concerned
Welcome back to Toto Greg. We've missed you.
Damn! I thought it was layered
He's just play it all at once the harmonizing
Always wondered how he covered Paich's and Steve Pocaroe's parts. I get it now. Damn! He is gooooood.
Just amazing
He is a genius
Such a great player!
Greg is a mad man on the keys.... Michael Jackson right hand man in the early days of Thriller and Off the wall.
This is Greg at his best.... here.... David Paich freaking love Greg
Greg: "I kind of wanted to...pimp out the Africa solo a little."
Us: "...well yes of course!!" 😂🙏
Love this man. Genius on keys!
The one man overdub machine 😊
Friggin AWESOME.
Magic 🪄 🤚 for the 🎹 phew 😅 amazing!
My mind immediately went into overdrive when that Africa solo ended - 3:20.
“Hurry boy, she’s waiting there for you!!!!!”
So good!
Greg-a big part of MJ’s recordings! 🎵
Well now that he explained it, piece of cake! 👌😂
The ad for his replacement says "Must be able to do this....". Right.....
SIMPLY SUPERB SIR.....SIMPLY SUPERB
Such an iconic keyboardist!
Excelente greg felicidades
And all the single keyboard cover bands smack their heads in awe!
He created such memorable licks.
My man Greg is a beast
Thank you, Greg.
🤯🙌🏼 Bravo!
I remember this guy from back on the day, always impressed me.
he’s so good!
Legend
❤ from Burundi 🇧🇮
Here after he played live with John Mayer. That solo was beautiful
I can't believe how quickly and smoothly he jumps to those side keyboards. Well actually I can believe it. He is one of the greats.
Legend..
i'm here after enjoying Greg's side keyboards on Last Train Home by John Mayer 😂
Yup 👍 me too
Same
Sameee haha. Also, I love Toto!
In portugues we are used to say "Who knows, do it live" -> Congrats Greg, amazing show!
If Greg was an octopus, he would be one hell of an orchestra!!
So talented.
