Member of Toto; prolific session work (collaborations cited in reviews include Michael Jackson, Aretha Franklin, Lionel Richie and others); solo albums include Lukather (1989), Candyman (1994) and I Found The Sun Again (2021).

Three DeBaser reviews analyze Lukather's solo albums, praising his guitar work and professionalism while noting limits in vocal timbre and inspiration. Reviews highlight rock, blues and fusion elements, live-in-the-studio recording approaches, and notable collaborators. Overall appraisal: skilled, reliable, sometimes routine.

For:Fans of guitar-driven rock, Toto followers, listeners of AOR/fusion/blues and people interested in session musicianship.

 Maybe it's just me, but the big face on the cover of good old Steve doesn't look like someone who has found the Sun again, as the title of his 2021 album announces.

 The excellent Californian guitarist has so far released seven albums under his own name, and this is his debut dating back to 1989, with the main artist being only thirty-two, yet already having seven albums under his belt with Toto, in addition to a staggering list of collaborations with other artists' albums, from Michael Jackson to Aretha Franklin, from Tubes to Lionel Richie.
