Toto - Red House (1991) [HD] (CC)

Toto - Live at Montreux 1991
Live at the Montreux Casino, Switzerland July 5th 1991.

By the time Toto was invited to play the famed Montreux Jazz Festival in 1991, their success had already been assured. Having established themselves in the ‘70s as an elite band of session players-turned-chart toppers, they were in the midst of a European tour when the call came. It was an appropriate fit. Not only were they able to spotlight their two most prominent hits of the time -- “Africa” and “Rosanna” -- but they were also allowed to express a more progressive posture that would come with their next album, 1992’s Kingdom of Desire. In short, the band were in peak prowess.

Sadly, this marked one of their final appearances with drummer Jeff Porcaro, who passed away the following year. But as Live at Montreux 1991 demonstrates, the core band - Pocaro, his brother Mike on bass and mainstays, singer/guitarist Steve Lukather and keyboard player keyboardist/vocalist David Paich were in prime form.

Lyrics:

There's a Red House over yonder
That's where my baby stays
There's a Red House over yonder, baby
That's where my baby stays

Well, I ain't been home to see my baby
In ninety-nine and one half days
'Bout time I see her
Wait a minute something's wrong here
The key won't unlock the door

Wait a minute something's wrong baby
Lord, have mercy, this key won't unlock this door
Something's goin' on here
I have a bad bad feeling that my baby don't live here no more

That's all right, I still got my guitar
Look out now...

I might as well go on back down
Go back 'cross yonder over the hill
I might as well go back over yonder
Way back over yonder 'cross the hill
That's where I came from

'Cause if my baby don't love me no more
I know her sister will

The first time I heard the fill from 6:39 by the late great Mr Jeff Porcaro, I literally went nuts in my room as I never heard that fill in my 3 years of listening to mostly songs that has Mr Porcaro in it.
