This one hell of an album. Twist the knife is damn good and so is swear your love. But listen to Drive a crooked road, and Fall into velvet. Those tracks are superb, but infact so are all tracks. 10/10

Great debut by Toto's guitarist, Luke. AOR meets melodic rock.

This one is for those Toto fans who don't think they've done anything worth hearing since "The Seventh One". Very high quality release, but then with songs written by Dianne Warren, Richard Marx, Eddie Van Halen, Steinberg/Kelly etc, you wouldn't expect anything else. Essential listening for me are "Lonely Beat of My Heart" and the awesome ballad "Turns to Stone", but this is almost all good and way better than "Luke". 9/10.

AWESOME 10/10 If you're looking for something different than AOR you will be dissapointed, but if You love TOTO and TOTO like AOR you won't regrent a simple minute spent with this album.

BUEN TRABAJO DEL EX TOTO, EL ALBUM TIENE SUS BUENOS MOMENTOS EN CORTES COMO Darkest Night Of The Year(THE BEST OF THE RECORD MI FAVORITO), It Looks Like Rain, Swear Your Love, Turns To Stone, Got My Way ASI QUE SI ERES AMANTE DEL BUEN AOR Y EN ESPECIAL DE TOTO ESTE CD NO PUEDE FALTAR EN TU COLECCION, COMO LO DIGO NO ES UNA JOYA PERO SI UN BUEN ALBUM. SALUDOS BROTHERS.

Brilliant, brilliant solo album with the best line up of guest musos I have ever seen on one album - Awesome stuff. The cream of the crop in the songwriting department aswell, so standards are very high throughout. Completely essential release for all Toto freaks.

A little along the lines of Toto's "Kingdom Of Desire" album, yet with a little more of their earlier super-smooth feel in places. This album rocks when it needs to, but delivers the ballads in all the right places. Among the highlights are "Swear Your Love", "Got My Way", "With A Second Chance" and "Twist The Knife", but the absolute standout is "Turn To Stone", which surely could have been a massive hit for Toto. This is Luke's most comprehensive solo album - only 2008's "Ever Changing Times" comes anywhere close. Highly Recommended! 89%

There some nice songs here and a lot of great musicians. But i really wonder: Whas there any need for this album? The Songs sound so much just like TOTO that they could've released them as...i don't know "The Eight One" or something. I think, if a musicians decides to create a solo album it should be to make something completely different like he does with his main band. Experiment and in case of Luke i really hoped he would make it a guitar driven album in the style of Vai or Satriani where he showcases his talent. Instead we get the same TOTO-like ballads, the same rock sound. I love TOTO so i like this album (Except Lonely Beat of my Heart...it's horrible) but i expected something different.

Not to be railing on the last comment, but (and I mean this genuinely and not trying to be a cock sucker or asshole)WHO THE FUCK WANTS ANOTHER SATRIANI\VAI ALBUM!!! I was so happy when they quit releasing albums, I could've done back flips, Seriously! Those guys were cool, after the release of the debut by each one of those guys, then the novelty wore off, and it was just some schmoe jerking off all over his fretboard, absolutely nothing to add ever again, I just mean it's kind of ironic being the question you ask about this album, was there any need for another Vai\Satriani disc after their debuts? If you mean for Luke to showcase his HIGHLY HIGH-TECH AOR playing skills, then im with you 100%, if you meant you wanted him to release a disc of him wanking off all over his guitar, playing as fast as he can, then I might as well shut up now, while im still talking nice, that's the last thing we, or he needs. Completely awesome CD, my favorite of Lukes, well tied with Ever Changing Times.
