- If you've followed my channel for a while, you'll know that I'm a big fan of the Joseph Williams era, and also love Isolation, and want to mainly focus on learning those albums. But I cannot start delving into such 'deep cuts' without touching something from the masterpiece that is TOTO IV. My favourite from the album is I think Make Believe, but Waiting for Your Love is a killer groove and I like It's a Feeling and Good For You also. Rosanna has been requested and is naturally the one to start with and may just be THE best song to represent the band and Luke's work.
Years and years ago I watched the Steve Lukather star licks video and spent a long long time learning this solo. However, Luke plays it slightly different there to what's on the record (the isolated guitar tracks are available these days on CZcams). This isn't too surprising as Luke seems to be more of a 'in the moment' player and may play it different every time, but I had to relearn some pretty ingrained muscle memory, but it was fun to do. The end solo is also incredibly tricky and I think I know exactly what Luke plays, however, trying to play it up to speed at the end of a full take is something I think only a prime Lukather can do haha.

I use a Jackson DK2 Dinky from 2004 (I removed the tone pot and moved the volume over) into a Boss Me50 (where I get my tone) into a Palmer Pdi-09 (which simulated a mic'd up cab) into a Focusrite Scarlett into my computer running Logic Pro X (where I add a little EQ and Reverb).
F.A.Q
My headphones are purposely like that so they stay out of the way. The cable is very long.
I'll be uploading my notation notes to my Patreon here / bwm5150 and if you are looking for custom tutorial content, then message me there or at my email bwmguitarlessons@gmail.com . Let me help you get playing the music you love!
That second guitar solo is one of the best rock guitar solos ever. Totally improvised which is why it's so good.
Ditto…… I couldn’t say it better!
Agreed ! By chance would you throw in “Hot for Teacher” in the top 10 as well ? Eddie is all over that flat 5 and the way he builds the solo is masterful. His is feel in incredible …
Hint of "Dixie Dregs" in there. If ya' like that style. Check them out.
Dude the way he comes in on that second solo. Lukathers tone is pure cream
Why does nobody really want to do the first solo but everybody wants to do the second solo?
Why can I only like this ONCE!! Probably my favorite Toto song ever! Lukather is a guitar god. He has played on so many hit records/songs inside and outside of Toto it's really insane his scope of work over the years.
This brought a smile to my face after a couple bad days. You are awesome. Thank you for sharing your gift with us.
God bless you lori. Glad he cheered you up. It's a privilege to watch him play.🙏🏻

❤️よかったね〜😀❤️
We’re not worthy! Always a treat to watch you play mate! Nailed the tone perfectly.
After watching your fingers when you play up-close, make me realize how great a guitarist Steve Lukather really is to be able to write such great chord and single note passages!
Takes some balls to play over Luke's outro. Superb.
Watched it numerous times. Talent never gets old.😊
Was talking about this shuffle pattern with my drumming mentor yesterday!!!.Amazing 🎶🎸🎶
The Jeff Porcaro shuffle is amazing.
One the best and class of TOTO's finest compositions.
I absolutely love Lukathers playing. His chops are insane. Great cover
Yes!
Luke is my #2 favourite guitarist of all time.
Who’s #1?
Toto + you= the perfect combination!
Wowaweewa ! That guitar totally steals the show. With the tones and the looks !
The perfect describe,🙅🏻♂️
Dude I would say you have mastered this instrument, at least as far a covers are concerned. Toto is no joke musically. And we love your vast range of musical covers and appreciation for any and all types of pop and rock.
Very kind, thank you!
え。開始30秒ですでにめちゃくちゃうまい。 listen to your performance for thirty seconds after it starts, it's already wonderful.
Haha, thanks!
You are the guitarist who plays the cleanest of all. super virtuous
Very kind of you to say, thanks! I try my best and always want to use these videos to help improve my own playing, and maybe help others too. 😁
@@bwm5150 I should reincarnate 50 times to get to play like you jaja. Congrats from Argentina bro
Just brilliant.
Covering Toto/Lukather ain’t no joke. Great impressive work. Volume control and bridge selection was effortless.
Just came here for my dose of good soulful music. Thanks bro.
I'm glad other people in this country have good music taste!! 🇳🇿
Feel good music for sure!
First THUMBS UP !!👍🏼

Wow, as always, this cover is perfect. Most of all, the timing !!!! You nail this groove perfectly
And this is why I say my King 🤴 from Scotland🎸🎧 that was amazing Ben one of my favorite songs from Toto and you just killed it👍🤩 Yesssssssss cheers your journey fan always🌹
something I really like about watching your covers is your emphasis on stylistics, technique, and tone, without the Guitar Hero swagger and arrogant stage posturing. I mean you obviously are passionate about playing the guitar, and playing these cover songs. But your emphasis is on bringing the instrument and technique to the forefront and remaining humble about it. I am so impressed with your playing on so many levels. Keep up the good work.
Aw thank you! That’s really pleasing to hear because I want these videos to be helpful and to highlight the guitar work.
Great job, man, what a brilliant song Rosanna is, really all the parts are amazing and work together perfectly. Can't believe you learned the 2nd solo note by note :-D well done!
Nailed it..... As if there were any doubt! Ben your my hero.
You pick the best songs to cover man. Thx.

My favorite band, favorite guitarist (Luke)… you did a great job! AWESOME!!!!
Been waiting for this one!!! Awesome job!! Nailed the solo!
Nice job! You really capture Lukather’s feel here, especially on the main/opening riff! One of the most accurate covers of this song I’ve seen on YT! So amazing! ❤
Thanks David, very kind! I love trying to play Luke’s stuff and hope to cover a lot more.
Outro absolutely nailed. Great job, Ben!!!
So good! Thanks!
Absolutely killer! Great tone and clean playing! Love the missing tone/moved volume pot mod too!
Brilliant and so beautiful, tfs Ben !!!❤️🇺🇸

I love that guitar. I see it show up in the thumbnails and have to click on it every time, lol
Ahhhh the classic! Your stuff keeps getting better and better! If I had picked up a guitar when I first started watching I might be able to play a power chord 😂👍🍻
It's alway a pleasure👌
Excellent! That is monster track to take on.

Another terrific job Ben. I never realized how great the guitar parts were in this song.
Was waiting for this song
Sweet!
Killer song. Amazing solos!!
Yep i'm feelin it
Beautiful and so well done!
Brillant work! thanks for this.
wow amazing on point !!!
smooth as always 👌
I read Lukather's bio and in it he acknowledged that 'Rosanna" was the quintessential representation of Toto. Great read by the way, that guy has got stories galore.
Hopefully he’ll do the follow up ‘session dates’ book too.
Awesome
Nice job. Enjoyed it much.
Mi banda preferida hasta ahora 2024
Beautiful song!!
Awesome playing, mate. This track is a great example of Toto's masterful song construction. I too am a fan of the Frederiksen and Williams eras, can't wait to hear some.
Thanks! Be sure to check out the playlist in the descriptions of the tracks I've already covered.
Outstanding, my friend. As usual 👊
Excellent.
Clean playing!
Beautiful lukather is amazing and this is spot on.
Perfect
Wow!!!
Excellent as always❤️🙂
Exelente versión, felicidades
Top notch!!!
Love Toto
Bravissimo !!!
Nailed it Ben...! Can't wait to see the TAB for that outro solo.....
Thanks! I think I know exactly what he’s doing but have only managed to play it up to speed a couple of times 😅
@@bwm5150 No hope for me then, love the way that smile creeps across your face when you realise you've nailed it.....
Haha, there were some parts I didn’t quite get which will be obvious when you see the tab. I was amused by the old muscle memory putting me off 🙈
So tasty guitar parts here and there
Wow brilliant, just looked through your channel -I love the mix of rock and pop, and the standard of playing and sound quality is superb!! 👍👍🎼🎶🎵👏 subscribed! 👍🤘
Dude - amazing playing - you are an inspiration to guitarists around the world to keep going until we get it right
Thanks Don!
Beautiful guitar sound my friend, very impressive video presentation. New sub here my friend 🤝👍✨🌟
Amazing stuff bro...!
💥 Very. 🎸 Cool💥
On 🔥!
3:11 😍😍😍
Congratulations!!!!
Lukather is definitely a guitar god but it’s exponentially easier to be that great when you have a Jeff Porcaro pocket like this to play in. If having a kick ass shuffle like that doesn’t bring the best out of everyone then what would!! The isolated drum track for this song is absolutely insane. The ghost notes and every little nuance in Jeff’s percussion work in this song are incredible. Until you hear it by itself, you have no clue just how busy he was in this song. Damn shame he died so young!
Love this song! You always do them justice. Bravo.
Check out a 70s 80s British punk band called 999. They did a song called homicide and it's like the stones playing ac/dc, but with a punk-ish twist. It's catchy as hell.
Again, fantastic playing my guy.👏👏👏
Really great work Ben, funny I have been playing around with the main guitar solo for a while myself, you nailed it mate, and it’s still freezing cold down here in Australia 👍👍
Coincidence, that its cold down there, Steve Austen....
Great job Ben!!
So good every time!
Master!!! 🔥🤟
gitara super. Madry podklad . Gratuluje.:)
