@@reddoxx4754yes…too many to mention. 2112 by Rush (from my hometown) although I wasn’t a huge fan then, have grown to appreciate their musical talent over the years. Takin’ It to the Streets by the Doobies was also great. Even though it was the transition album from Tom Johnston (my preferred Doobies era) to Michael McDonald on lead vocals, it is still a great album and the best with MM in my opinion, although Livin’ on the Fault Line (1977) is an underrated sleeper IMO. Some great tracks with Patrick Simmons singing as well as one rocker from Tom Johnston (Turn It Loose) before he left the band due to stomach ulcers. Even one which was a tribute Tom Johnston “For Someone Special” which is a great bluesy number with bassist (of the time) Tyrone Porter (who wrote it) on lead vocals. Johnston of course eventually came back to the band and joined the current line up which now includes MM again, but is currently sidelined from touring with back issues. And yes many, many more albums released that prolific year, too numerous to mention them all…

Life can be very strange. Reading how so many people respected Jeff Porcaros playing. It really makes me proud and puts a smile on my face. He killed live, he was quite a showman. You see, I went to school with Toto. Jeff, Steve, Mike Porcaro, Lukather and Patch. From Katy Lied to Silk Degrees, Jeff became the go to drummer for the 70s-80s. His discology is huge. I've got a few stories about back in the day. What a time to have been alive and to still be alive!

I loved how Venetta Fields, who has sung back up for everyone, Pink Floyd included, when talking about working with Boz, he would be late to sessions, she would take charge, and, when Boz would finally walk in, he would say, "Venetta, can i have my band back now" jokingly, with gratitude, and admiration of course.😁🙌

I have heard this story & thanks for providing it as it gives a great insight as to the man he is, in charge but not consumed with himself. Why it took seven albums to have a major hit is crazy, I like all his albums & think there were hits there, I guess the record company realized his worth (as they didn't move on from him) but would'nt go over the top to push his records. It worked out in the end though as most know him now & he's still producing great music.

@@larryg7126 After watching a video interview of Venetta a couple weeks ago, and laughing out loud when she made that statement about Boz, I couldn't help but relate it here just to remind everyone that all these people have lives, and that they laugh, and love like everyone else. Venetta is so charming, and funny, yet I'm sure people pass her by everyday without knowing that she has lived a life that most would never guess. I'm 61, so I got to experience all this great music over the decades, and Boz was then, and still is, an iconic musical figure from my day, and beyond.

I was just a toddler in the 70’s, born in Jan 1973, but I had older brother and sister 6/7 yrs older. Songs like this are embedded in my DNA as the stereo was rocking in the house, the car, etc. As I get older I have revisited these songs, and I can almost tell you where and when I first heard them…I talk to my brother and sister are amazed at my recollections. When I listen to these songs now, I realize how good they are (the talent of the musicians, as well as the studios and production is the best) It is easy to understand why these songs are etched into my soul.
