TOTO & Friends – The Jeff Porcaro Tribute Concert (2017)

TOTO & Friends - The Jeff Porcaro Tribute Concert (2017) full
HERE

TOTO & Friends : The Jeff Porcaro Tribute Concert, has been reissued last year in a quality never heard before. This was recorded back in 1992 at Universal Amphitheater, Los Angeles, California, just some months after the loss of one of the greatest drummers in the world / all categories: Mr. Jeffrey Porcaro.
Alongside the Toto crew, there’s some impressive guests including Eddie Van Halen, Michael McDonald, Don Henley, George Harrison, Boz Scaggs and more.

“The Jeff Porcaro Tribute Concert” is considered as an ‘official bootleg’ by the Toto family. It was released on CD the past decade, but while the recording sound quality is pretty good, it was poorly mastered / tracked.
Now it has been re-released with a fine track sequence and sound.

All the classic songs are here, we have great musicianship as usual with Toto and superb guests, but you gotta check Eddie Van Halen’s participation.
Eddie plays all over Toto’s classic ‘Hold the Line’, but he especially shine in a killer guitar fight with Steve Lukather during VH’s ‘Ain’t Talkin’ Bout Love and Hendrix’s ‘Fire’, both on fire indeed.

This re-release is the best sounding version you can get, a soundboard take yet well done.
And yes, before you ask, Toto’s new limited edition Box-set “ALL IN”, their definitive collection fully remastered, will be featured at this blog soon…
