One of the BEST lines I’ve heard out of Luke was his take on todays music. He said something along the lines of, “if you took away the pro tools, the backing tracks, and the dancers most of them would sound like they were in their first night in prison.” Hahaha.
Yeah if you can't play an instrument and you can't sing I'm not interested and rhyming words does not impress unless your brain-dead or in kindergarten🤔🙃😨
😂😅.. i just love him.. love watching interviews with him as guest. his observations, his insight, his eyes when he narrates an amusing experience, wow! Too precious to pass up!
You assume it was jealousy? I think Prince was talented enough on over 30 something instruments not to be jealous of any other musician! This was often a pattern with him where he was very introverted, but once he got to know you and trusted you, he was always said to be a great person and helped so many other musicians. There is countless stories out there if you’re interested in knowing.
@@CJ-vh2hf Prince was certainly an astonishing musician. However, he was lacking in some human qualities and was pretty awful to a lot of people (Peggy McCreary and Susan Rogers, to name a couple). I'd bet he was jealous of Steve's character, humour and popularity.
The stories Luke has, and more importantly, can recall, sound fantastical but totally believable. I HIGHLY suggest reading his book if you haven't already. It's wildly entertaining.
It is hard to imagine that there is a musician out there who has more experience in that "job" than Steve Lukather. besides of all his stories, I admire Steve as a guitar player and musician. I guess, most of all guys who play guitar simply love his guitar playing. isn't it so? you can learn from Luke simply by listening to his stuff. because he is so accurate and clean and on spot and so amazing. also his different sounds. I mean even Eddie said he is the greatest player, playing in the best band.
@@philiphall9609 same here brother... I got the audio version and was psyched to find out it is narrated by Luke himself. You'll love it and I'm looking forward to the follow-up
As a guitar/music nerd I've always been a huge Luke fan. It's so awesome seeing him kinda get a second wind of appreciation. His Transition pickups are perfect
Nailed it! At 55 and drumming for 35+ years (that’s f’ed sayin that out loud!) I appreciate the music that SL and the guys gave us more and more every day. And yes I loved J Porcaro. Sadly missed
It's so cool to hear all these Prince stories, you get to see the side of him no one talks about. When he was still with us, you'd hear the "rumors" that he was a little weird, but a musical prodigy, now that we actually hear these stories they kinda line up with the rumors. He is truly missed, God melted the mold when He made Prince!!
So a couple of interesting stories to add onto these. I grew up in the Minneapolis area and while “Purple Rain” was filming my sister was working at a local Holiday Inn where some of the cast and crew from the movie were staying. Prince would come by occasionally and roar up and down the hallways of the hotel on the purple motorcycle that Luke mentioned in his story. Suffice to say Holiday Inn management was not impressed……😂 The second involves the Prince bodyguard that Luke mentioned. This guy would occasionally come into the Sears store where I worked as a college kid and every time he did it was quite the scene! As Luke described, the guy was HUGE and had this mane of very distinctive white hair. Whenever he came into the store, everybody would literally stop what they were doing and stare, for one because of his huge size and also because he carried himself in such a way that it was almost as if the circus was coming to town! From what I remember, he was always accompanied by an entourage that I assumed was his family - a wife and two teenaged daughters. Now all three of these girls were attractive and equally distinctive in appearance as their father, and I was always very careful not to get caught checking out his daughters lest he take it the wrong way…….😂 The one thing always struck me about this guy was that although he was incredibly flamboyant and very intimidating in appearance, when you would check him out at the till he actually was very quiet and soft spoken - a very strange dichotomy between personality and appearance!
No it was not and maybe a lie since people in the town that some parts of PR was filmed have said he was really nice. Signing autographs and speaking to people. There had never been a story of him tearing up a hotel. Sounds like
@@lauraveney1412 Yes I knew Prince a bit - did keyboard repairs work for him, also one of my best friends was in the band when he had these practices. I also knew Dez (super talented) - in fact, Dez's dad (awesome ump) was my little league umpire and his sister LaDonna (nice person) was in my classes in jr. & high school.
@@lastdaysguitar So do you think he might have been saying his voice or like he said dealing with all the music in his head which he said he could never turn off. Do you think he even knew who this guy was?
@@lauraveney1412 Something was off about him, I've several examples here's one: he had purple fur glued to his Seq. Circuits Prophet keyboard but he could not stand the smell of the glue so he got mad and DOUSED the entire keyboard with perfume - the problem is he ruined the potentiometers and circuit boards with corrosion from leaving it running with the perfume on it - everything internal was green with corrosion & had to be replaced and you don't want to know how freaked out he was that he destroyed the EEPROM memory of the patches he had created. I was the lucky guy that had to return the now essentially new keyboard (new PC boards) to him with no custom sounds - not a good day with Prince.
Curaçao is a Dutch island one of the ABC islands just north of Venezuela. Steve is not only one of my guitar heroes, he’s great at telling Rock and a Pop Legends’ back stories like they’re yesterday.
Steve is so cool. Steve is the high school big brother I wish I had growing up in the 80's LOL Itd be a dream come true to just chill, play guitar and listen to him tell stories. Such an amazing guitarist.
Prince was either trying to hard to be cool or intimidate by Lukather. Prince is a great guitar player, but Lukather is a phenomenal guitar player. Lukather is the kind of guy that guys like Quincy Jones and Michael Jackson bring in to make their songs hits. Both amazing musicians, song writers, singers, etc. I would guess Prince wasn't intimidated, but he was a weird cat.
Fucking Hilarious....only Luke can tell it like it is. Love Prince and i love Luke ,,,,,,they should've done an Album together HaHaHa "Luke & Prince" lol
😄I know why Prince had issues with Luke -- not in 1999, in 1999 Prince was just weird -- but after that it was because Luke played on, and wrote music for Thriller! Michael Jackson and Prince had that weird love/hate rivalry and Thriller was not only Michael Jackson's biggest album, it was the biggest selling album of all time. Forever in Prince's bad books.
In an earlier episode Peggy kind of threw shade at Toto and implied that something untoward went down between her and them back in the day. She said she didn't like that they all brought women (not their wives) into the studio openly.
From what Ive heard around LA from guys who were around back then runners fetched 2 things... 'coke' and 'girls.' And a lot of the time the girls were escorts. One guy told me a story about a Billy Idol tracking session at LAFX and that they were banging escorts over the mixing desk. I was like 'Well, that is the neighborhood where they film tons of porn.' (all the houses over there have boarded up windows to keep people from being able to see inside). And he was like 'Dude, it was happening at Capitol too.' Lol. I still find that hard to believe. Course, that was way before my time so maybe it did at 2 in the morning when the place is cleared out. Cap. just isn't a party studio.
I think it’s kinda clear that Prince was in someway neurodivergent. The social skills are low (though they did get better), while the focus is turned way up.
@@horrorpowerfilms9481 uh, no... Luke has some funny stories to tell. I'm interested. It's called humor. From real life happenings.. Nothing to do with 'bullying' 😄
@@horrorpowerfilms9481 ahhhh, your self-proclaimed sophistication is low hanging fruit. However, laughing at someone's choice of clothes is a bit different than finding humor in someone being a prima donna. Thanks for the input, though. Opine anytime. 😄
@@vitosantangelo1 but did anything Luke said about Prince shows any prima donna? waiting for your answer. MANY people don't talk to strangers or to barely known people in their social circle, it's call been shy, introvert etc. (That Prince was very famous about). Luke is trying to have punchlines bulling Prince clothes and hight, because at the end he doesn't have any negative thing to say about Prince, so to make the story interesting "let's make fun about the short shiny guy" that's a complete jerk behaviour. BTW I din't said I was sophisticated I say what I found funny it's more sophisticated then what you do...and I'm an Adam Sandler fun! BTW #2 I love funny Prince stories, but this wasn't one.
Prince was not jealous. He was observing. The guy always wanted to learn but didn’t want to talk. He was out there. If he wasn’t a singing or playing. He wasn’t communicating
I wish Prince had been a normal cat with Lukather. Prince had no idea the incredible humor Luke was capable of. Prince, being funny himself, would've really connected with him. Prince did himself and his legacy a disservice by being so distant and difficult and strange in social settings. I've been into Prince and ALL his music since 1981. I wish Luke had gone into the story at the end where he begins, "He also screwed...". I wanna hear all the TRUTH, even the dirt. LOL
Obviously as a fan of both, I would jump at the chance to sit down for a coffee with Prince, or beer with Steve. I say that specifically because I couldn't imagine how the conversation would go if Prince was drinking. I wouldn't want the experience ruined.
I met prince and he was cool. This was 2004ish. He had probably mellowed by that time, and also I wasn’t just a dude so he didn’t feel like he had to impress me or compete or whatever.
Damn! this escalate fast! I din't hear a single thing that made Prince an asshole in here, in fact it's quite the opposite. I bet you David Bowie could walk dressed as an alien at 10 am and this guy would not call him "freaky", I pretty sure this guy also had a problem with Prince smell.
@@astuffedteddy but did Prince was a jerk talking about Sly Stone publicly? What Luke is doing here it's showing his resentment at Prince's success (or is it personal?), I mean making fun at Prince clothes to put him down, while saying that (the extremely extravagant) Elton Jhon was beautiful, come on!
@@astuffedteddy "renowned for not paying people"?? wow! LOL! so I guess you know at least 3 cases were Prince din't pay people, right? please comment on that. As a BIG Prince fan, that is bull crap.
So much PRINCE not acknowledging him in his own self-centered way he used the time to emotional empower himself with his sarcastic sacrificing of so-called unflattering humor. Equally as well Nothing calls for labeling PRINCE a asshole regarding his own personal behavioral traits. RESPECTFUL all though out my teenage years and 20 I was very shy and self-centered female would talk behind my back and say things like "I think I'm too much" sought of like I think "I'm better than ever one else" but equally as important I wanted to be accepted with the typical IGNORANCE that *(LUKE and STICKY BOB) displayed. People sometimes say that liked you but have a funny way of showing it🤔LOVE 2 HATE 🤘🏻👹
Imagine being easily one of the few savant level musicians of your time, you are desired to be apart of nearly ever big name artist for their next studio album guaranteed to be a hit (in part due you being apart of the mix), and nearly 100% of the general public couldn’t pick you out of a line up because your desire is just to work and jam instead of being a star….sounds like a perfect candidate CIA if he was in any other line of work
Wouldn't go that far. I don't think they're comparable. Steve has his thing. Prince has his. They're both very talented. The only odd thing about Prince for me was the amount of unusable things he committed to finishing. Maybe thats a good thing and I just don't see it. But he committed to finishing a lot stuff that just wasn't very good. Course, the stuff that was very good was really great.
Total utter bollocks. Lol. Prince could playa guitar better in his sleep than Steve FFS. If you are going to banter on here try something a little plausible.
I love Steve but I wish he would have washed his hands before the podcast. His hands look like he just got done changing the brakes on a Nissan Pathfinder.
Same guy that the other Sunset Sound engineer said was making fun of Prince and that engineer said they were assholes. Prince was told a journalist he had so much music in his head he did not always make time to talk people and that he was not trying to be rude he just found the stuff in his head more interesting.
@C.Nash "offended"?? I'm making an observation, this is YT not your high school class. You don't like people commenting on Luke been a jerk? well stay out of YT.
Of what he sold millions more records than this guy. Maybe he just wanted to work on his project or maybe he did not even know who this dude was. Loads of reasons here and no reason to make it negative
Dutch , Steve, not Danish ;) Curaçao is one of the four countries that make up The Kingdom of the Netherlands (the other three are the Netherlands, Aruba and St Maarten).
I don’t think Prince was a bad guy. I think he was just on a completely different wavelength. I think the genius thing just perpetuated more weird behavior. I find it all hilarious

How could anyone not want to hang out with Steve Lukather? Coolest cat on the planet. Supremely talented.
Jealousy probably.
A very talented guy, a guitar legend, a keyboard player and a sight reader, and he can sing, he has an amazing voice.
I'd much rather hang out with him that a jerk like Prince Rogers Nelson.

So much PRINCE not acknowledging him in his own self-centered way he used the time to emotional empower himself with his sarcastic sacrificing of so-called unflattering humor. Equally as well Nothing calls for labeling PRINCE a asshole regarding his own personal behavioral traits. RESPECTFUL all though out my teenage years and 20 I was very shy and self-centered female would talk behind my back and say things like "I think I'm too much" sought of like I think "I'm better than ever one else" but equally as important I wanted to be accepted with the typical IGNORANCE that *(LUKE and STICKY BOB) displayed. People sometimes say that liked you but have a funny way of showing it🤔LOVE 2 HATE 🤘🏻👹
So it turns out Prince was a little jealous of Steves guitar playing talent. Well aren’t we all
probably saw him as one of the few people in his league. I don't think he had a reason to be jealous.
Which Prince songs Lukather on? Nobody knows.
Why do so many Americans mix up Danish with Dutch? 😄
Yes , one is sweet bakery , and the other a potato chip .
Imagine being easily one of the few savant level musicians of your time, you are desired to be apart of nearly ever big name artist for their next studio album guaranteed to be a hit (in part due you being apart of the mix), and nearly 100% of the general public couldn’t pick you out of a line up because your desire is just to work and jam instead of being a star….sounds like a perfect candidate CIA if he was in any other line of work
Hmm. Prince was a musical genius but he sounds like he was a bit autistic as well.
I really must know who does Lukather's hair.
Luke has 100X the talent that prince EVER had.
Wouldn't go that far. I don't think they're comparable. Steve has his thing. Prince has his. They're both very talented. The only odd thing about Prince for me was the amount of unusable things he committed to finishing. Maybe thats a good thing and I just don't see it. But he committed to finishing a lot stuff that just wasn't very good. Course, the stuff that was very good was really great.
No.
Luke is a phenomenal guitar player. Prince is a musical genius and a world class player on pretty much every instrument.
@@modelcitizen1977 Nonsense.
Total utter bollocks. Lol. Prince could playa guitar better in his sleep than Steve FFS. If you are going to banter on here try something a little plausible.
I love Steve but I wish he would have washed his hands before the podcast. His hands look like he just got done changing the brakes on a Nissan Pathfinder.
Also he was great on Ancient Aliens.
Steve could come up with his 2nd book. The Gospel of Crazy Shit He Has Seen!!!! It would have to be no less than 10,000 pages!
Luke is the man! 🙌
I f*cking love Luke..
😂😂😂😂😂😂 Curacao a Danish Island 😂😂😂😂😂😂
One has to admit Prince behaved oddly.
Was he the Prince of Jelly?
Curacao is a constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in the caribbean sea .
Same guy that the other Sunset Sound engineer said was making fun of Prince and that engineer said they were assholes. Prince was told a journalist he had so much music in his head he did not always make time to talk people and that he was not trying to be rude he just found the stuff in his head more interesting.
Luke is the man, Prince, like all of us, was just jealous . Much Love to Brother Luke!
Prince is the goat. He's jealous of no one. Especially one who plays one instrument.
WTF! by the way he insult Prince making fun of his clothing, and personality (wtf?), the jealous one seems to be Luke the jerk.
Luke is a jerk.
@C.Nash "offended"?? I'm making an observation, this is YT not your high school class. You don't like people commenting on Luke been a jerk? well stay out of YT.
Of what he sold millions more records than this guy. Maybe he just wanted to work on his project or maybe he did not even know who this dude was. Loads of reasons here and no reason to make it negative
Dari tempat yg jauh dan dari hati yg paling dalam, aku mengatakan aku sayang dan sukadgn musik dan dirimu, GBU
Safe to say Prince was a weirdo 😊
Curaçao is Dutch :)
I just have to say, being Dutch, that Curacao is a Dutch island, not a Danish island. Great story though.
funniest dude in rock 😂
Luke is the best storyteller in rock-n-roll!
Dutch , Steve, not Danish ;)
Curaçao is one of the four countries that make up The Kingdom of the Netherlands (the other three are the Netherlands, Aruba and St Maarten).
I don’t think Prince was a bad guy. I think he was just on a completely different wavelength. I think the genius thing just perpetuated more weird behavior. I find it all hilarious
