And to think Steve did this solo IN ONE TAKE. Completely freestyled it and they kept the first cut. Amazing.

It's a really good thing Steve started hanging out with Eddie Van Halen😂... no seriously when I heard this on the radio I'm from the San Francisco Bay area where the tubes we're based out of and got lots of radio play. The song absolutely made me want to play rock n roll lead guitar, it still does 43 years later Great lesson 🤟

Thanks a lot. I remember hearing this solo when the song came out. Didn’t play guitar at that time, but it really caught my ear. Didn’t find out it was Luke until a few years later. Been a fan ever since.

Talk To Ya Later Was Actually Written And Recorded In 1980 And It Was The Best Rock 'N' Roll Song Ever Written! I Don't Care What Anybody Says. My Hats Off To Fee Waybill, Steve Lukather, And David Foster! By The Way, It Would Be Great If You Have A Guitar Lesson Of Blue Oyster Cult's Burnin' For You. That's Another Great Tune!

Great lesson and scale explanation! Lean something new all the time.

You Sir, are a great player, and a fantastic tutor too. I shall certainly be donating to your channel.

I have this LP from back in the 80's. I was always like "the Tubes lead guitarist is awesome. That's one of the best solos I've ever heard." I typed in who played this solo on google years later. Steve Lukather. Aha moment. Not sure why he's not mentioned as an all-time great because he certainly is. Great instructional video I'll be working on this for a while, thanks. Tons of great licks in this solo.

This is so good! Keep up the good work

Haven't heard anything I've wanted to learn lately, I'll learn this!

You are absolutely SIC!!! I am picking up my newly purchased Mint Radiance Red Luke II this weekend. Cannot wait to fine tune this song. One of the best leads and guitarist anywhere. Toto does not get half the respect they deserve for all the different styles, creative lyrics and twist and turns that make you want to play that song again and again. From Hold the Line to Devils Tower and soo many more. Name any band that has members with over 5000 session credits to their name. Can't do it can you ??? I'll be getting back to you very soon!!!

Dude you are the master at nailing the piss out of everything with proper technique these guys that move all over the neck I just really make me sick

Nice break down, thank you

This is my second lesson from you and I can’t wait for some more

Yup. Wilson is the best teacher ever !! 🤟🏻🎸🇨🇦

I like how you teach your break things into phrases

Great!

Only on a Les Paul...I haven't worked it out yet but, I dare say you're close ? Good work bro...your videos are killer !

As much vibrato on that last note as .010s allow...... hahahaha flat notes sound great if you play them with conviction and do it the same way every time, people will not recognize it as a mistake.... they think you meant to do it that way.... again... your playing lessons for technical riffs are outstanding!! The best I have seen. Your memory must be huge and in color!!!

Damn, you really are a great player!

Absolutely great! But is there a specific reason for starting that opening riff on the 12th fret of B instead of the 16th of G? The latter seems a lot easier

Plz give lessons of "Farewell Ballad" by zack wylde

"Challenging at least for me", someone is modest

Can you do Cutting Crew "(I just) died in your arms"

Also.... there is really something to playing this with less distortion as the notes bloom and ring better making it clear you are demonstrating the notes and harmonic overtones so we the listener can grasp it better!! Mark Day plays it well on his channel, but uses way too much distortion with his fractile rig... love your lessons!!

Outstanding lesson! How do you get that tone-sustain?

man the PINKY on the solo works!

does he have hotel california by eagles guitar lesson? I cant find it in his channel.

Hey man your by far my favorite teacher. And have been for years I tell everyone that's trying to learn about your channel. I was wondering if you might be able to do James Taylor's Carolina in my mind. I would REALLY love to learn it by you because your always the most accurate. Please please please. Anyways have a great day and thanks for all the work you do

How about tender surrender lesson? :D

my first note only sounds right on the 13th fret not the 12th, is this song tuned down.

Wow! Great lesson, but ridiculously hard. I really have to improve on my legato thing. Btw, I don't recall seeing Lukather having anything to with that song and I know that album really well. (David Foster wrote much of it, btw) When I saw them do it live, the two regular guitarists, Bill Spooner and Roger Steen, played all the parts. I will inquire further though. Thanks for this (I think LOLOL)

You struggle with that riff a lot because you are playing .010s..... hahahaha nice guitar work!! Wonder if Lukather remembers it this well?? You may have to show him one day.

And this Solo isn't in Rick Beato's ranking of "The 20 greatest outro solos" 🤔 yeah, man, almost like it is on record. The sound of my teenage time - ( yes, i had this luck to hear this band as i was a teenager...)

Please play "every little thing she does is magic" - the police 🙏🙏🙏

Man i can't find starway to heaven ¿what's happened?

I always thought Roger Steen played the guitar who is Steve Lukather ?

+Bill. How about Roundabout ?! There's so much misinformation on KZfaq on that one, imo.

You take on complicated stuff..so why not do some Steve Howe pieces? I know there are about a zillion guitar players who would love getting an accurate lesson on his stuff.

Note selection always trumps tone. That being said, your tone is what I consider to be ideal .
