EXCLUSIVE: The past twelve months have brought testing times for Steve Lukather. As well as well-publicised legal troubles within Toto, he’s also lost dear friend Eddie Van Halen, something he says he’s still reeling from; “the world lost a guitar hero; I lost my friend”, he reveals, candidly. Despite this however, the guitarist and singer is in upbeat form, as attested on his radiant new solo release ‘I Found the Sun Again’. “I’ve had a wild ride, man. I can’t be mad at nothing”, he declares, in positively defiant form. Chatting the solo album, Toto’s final days and future, his friendship with EVH and more, we sat down for an extended audience with the one they call Luke. The seventh one; Eamon O’Neill.
