Steve Lukather recording solo (2002, Copenhagen)

Nov 15, 2002.
Fabulous Luke came by Sweet Silence Studio in Copenhagen to lay down a few solos on Mike Tramp's third solo album.

The album "More To Life Than This" also included a guest appearance by Eric Johnson and was produced by Flemming Rasmussen.

Bonus info:
Luke is playing a Gibson Les Paul, that was brought to the session by manager and record label executive Ulf Zick.

The video was recorded by Nicholas Findsen, who played bass on the album.

Seen listening alongside Ulf in the clip is Kasper Foss (drums) and Todd Wolfe (guitar).

Awesome footage, thanks!
Man.. this is why I’m a Lukather fan. His feel, timing, groove, sound and phrasing are just perfect👌🏻

Listen to how good Luke is. This is a session musician and that is how it is done!!

[suhrtomanderson]

I don't get tired of listening to this solo 100 times!

Session/Studio's work is H-A-R-D!No matter HOW perfect you think your work is, a fresh set of ears will come in and hear the flaws!!

[JohnBruceGuitars]

Killer licks from the Master himself it's one thing to learn them but to come up with them is a whole different ball game

[sermorel]

Man....the first take was UNBELIEVABLE Luke is amazing !

[jaimel]

Damn, just when you thought you heard all of Luke’s usual licks, he summons up Angus just like that, no wonder he’s been on over 2000 recordings! Navy seal of session musos!😎

I'd love to see more videos of Steve, in studio...just working things out.

I have no more words of praise to give to Luke. I have said them all. My first guitar hero and still is!

Steve Lukather is so cool. Riping licks and just straight up cool dude.

All professional Session Players in a Studio I saw, are sitting on a chair . Luke ist standing and gives the Producer 4 or 5 perfect Variations of a Solo on a borrowed Guitar. He has his Sound and you will hear no bad tone . Genius.

Amazing to see Luke work out a complete solo like this. Thanks for posting!

[fiddlefolk]

All killer and no filler--Steve Lukather kicked that ass!

[OldStreetDoc]

Luke could not be MORE expressive if the guitar was a voice. He might be the best guitarist of the time… he’d certainly be in the running. 👍🏼

[elishevajones]

Mr. Lukather is a genius on the guitar.

Big fan of Toto since I heard Hold the line. Luke is just the shit.Awesome guitar player, tone, technique phrasing.❤❤🤘🤘

[okutsutaka]

Very interesting to see him play Les Paul type guitar, not Musicman Luke guitar. Sounds great as always!

tbh I'd have been stopping for a redo by the third second
