Unlocking the Secrets of Toto's "Rosanna"!

Happy Saturday!!!

Here's a rad one for you all... I recently found the isolated guitar track to "Rosanna" by Toto, and I was BLOWN AWAY by some of the cool stuff hidden in there that I've never heard before! In this video, I'll show you all the magic that went into those parts, and what we can learn from the tones, techniques, and hot licks he put all over this classic! Lets go!!! Snag the TAB below!

What's YOUR favorite Lukather moment?! There's so many to choose from!

Definitely breakdown the fried gold at the end of Rosanna! The fade out chokes that ripping Luke does at the end.

T Friesen

New Patreon and huge fan. Awesome video on Rosanna.

John Bonelli

Yes please breakdown the outro

Anna Heijne

Would you be willing to share the Logic File for the fx you used? PS your pedalboard?

Anna Heijne

More Luke! Especially the outro solo !!

Joel Alain

I say Yay since you volunteered! Let’s do the outro

Boykinheplay

Definite yes for the outro solo! Having a hard time figuring out some parts of it on my own :D

Willohwell

Awesome Ben, more Luke more Luke!!

Pete Sav

Thanks for this. Can’t get enough of the classic rock stuff! I’m adding my vote for a full break down of the outro stuff.

Doug Bracey

This is cool. I learned this back in HS stage band. I would get in trouble for turning it metal with power chords but it sounded siiiick. And he wouldn't let me play those high stabs because that was for the saxophones. Boo Mr. Wilson. Booo. lol.

Gregg B.

Oh yeah, he and the rest of Toto did a ton of work with Boz.

Brian Anderson

That's a great solo too! Didn't know that was SL's work.

John

His solo on Boz Scaggs’ “Breakdown Dead Ahead” might be the coolest thing he ever played. Luke is such a damn legend…

Brian Anderson

Yes, full break down of the outro solo

Wilton Cornett

Yep, go for it Uncle Ben!

Glenn Lysack

Break down that outro!!!

Chris Brown

Do we want a breakdown of the Outro to "Roseanna"? Hell Yeah!

Rory Kling

Luke ROCKS especially his rhythm playing

lynn jones

Ben, please do a presentation on Lukather's Talk to Ya Later outro solo for The Tubes hit song on which Steve was guest guitarist! That one is smoking! For Rosanna outro, Steve himself breaks some of it down on a 1980s Starlicks video which can be watched on YouTube (so-so video quality from VHS transfer).

John

Thanks man, I love these breakdowns of stuff way outside my usual musical diet...I generally only listen to my Limp Bizkit / Matchbox 20 mixtape cd Random thought- Ben Eller takes on why Guitarists love Prince?

Jake Raymor

Ben, don't know how much you're into Lukather and his music. But if you only know him from Toto I recommend also checking out this live video from back in the with his solo band. Killer stuff and so much groovy and jazzy stuff in that set! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3b6PirYBSdg
