No one can replace Jeff Porcaro. He was one in a million. ❤❤

I share these videos with my Drum students. The word legend gets tossed about too often these days. He's a true legend!!!!!!!!

As great of a drummer as Robinson is, he never would have fit right. In fact, most all drummers cannot/do not mimic Jeff's feel/groove....many have tried, but it's not the same. Jeff was truly one of a kind.

@toddfrank3344 Ай бұрын

I actually think JR could have done it. Both of those guys were/are masters of laying down a groove. But JR couldn't handle it emotionally, which I understand. They were TOO close as friends.

Having John Jr Robinson with Toto after Jeff passed away would have been so great. He would've fit so perfect with his groove.. But as he said, NOBODY could take Jeff's place.

Thanks so much for doing these interviews, John (Beaudin... and Robinson..!) JR is a legendary player and big influence of mine. Keep 'em coming!

Simon Phillips was the right choice. He and Jeff didn't know each other well, but there was huge mutual respect. Pretty much any other drummer (certainly L.A based?) would have probably been not only grieving Jeff, but also massively nervous about filling those shoes. Simon is an outstanding drummer. Good on him for stepping in. Someone had to..

I feel like I know the Toto guys just from the years of listening and watching the vids. I would have given anything to hang around the Porcaros.

Heard a story that Jeff loved Phil Gould and advised the band that he would be a great replacement. Man that would have been something. Not a big JR fan.

Phil is one of my favorite drummers!!!! I also heard that Jeff really dug Phil....Phil had the magic touch and groove...greatness knows greatness!!!

@@iansnyder274 To be blunt the finesse of Jeff and Phil make JR look like a toilet. He was championed by Quincy Jones who used him a lot whereas Porcaro was hired by a multitude of producers. Its like comparing a racehorse with a donkey

I think JR would agree with that assessment. He even mentioned that when you hear about 4 bars from a aong, you know it’s Jeff.

@jasfan8247 2 жыл бұрын

@@regaltip8A Sometimes finesse is not required, just the pocket. I like 42 but which other band would fit Phil. Like Copeland would be too busy for a lot of studiostuff. Sting had to tie up one of his arms to get a good tracking for "every breath" 🤣

I always thought Lionel Richie's all night long and Steve Winwood's Highlife was played by Jeff but when i found out it was John he became my new favorite pop drummer!! Jeff is great but absolutly does not have that same kick as John.

JR is great no doubt but technically Simon Philips smokes JR. No offence meant both are great players. I find Simon to be a humble guy for how great he is.
