披頭鼓手Ringo Starr巡迴演唱

Steve Lukather與他的Toto合唱團加Michael McDonald九月初才結束今年夏季的巡迴演唱，但Steve現在又要和他的主要團員參加前披頭合唱團鼓手Ringo Starr的All Star Band去巡迴表演了，Ringo精選的這個合唱團10月二日開始從奧克拉荷馬州的Catoosa唱到十月23日在佛羅里達州Clear Water結束，一共16場。

Ringo Starr的All Star Band除了Steve Lukather之外還有Todd Rundgren、前Santana與Journey的主唱與鍵琴手Gregg Rolie、Mr.Mister的主唱與貝斯手Richard Page、貝斯手Gregg Bissonette及能玩多種樂器的Warren Ham，Lukather覺得這個組合有點怪，但音樂是沒話說的超好。

Steve Lukather表示能與這些伙伴一起唱很多經典歌曲，是一種難得的經驗，像來自Santana的Gregg Rolie和大伙合唱Santana的暢銷曲Evil Way，讓他回想當年聽這首歌時，他還是個年輕小伙子，剛開始當樂手。

另外他們唱披頭的名曲With A little Help From My Friends時，Ringo會講吉它手的故事，這讓他感覺他是個小孩子聽大人講新鮮事。

Steve Lukather因參加All Star Band而與Ringo Starr搞得很熟，而且他們住得很近，沒事會一起出遊，也一起寫點東西，他覺得能和the Beatles的團員之一合作寫歌真是神呀。

With A little Help From My Friends是the Beatles 1967年專輯Sgt.Peppers Lonely

Hearts Club Band當中的名曲，由Ringo Starr主唱，是披頭時代少數由Ringo主

唱的歌，沒有發行過小唱片，但在滾石雜誌500大歌曲榜獲得第304名佳績。

With A Little Help From My Friends

 

What would you think if I sang out of tune,

Would you stand up and walk out on me?

Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song

And I'll try not to sing out of key.

 

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends

Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends

 

What do I do when my love is away

(Does it worry you to be alone?)

How do I feel by the end of the day,

(Are you sad because you're on your own?)

 

No, I get by with a little help from my friends

Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends

Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends

 

Do you need anybody

I need somebody to love

Could it be anybody

I want somebody to love.

 

Would you believe in a love at first sight

Yes, I'm certain that it happens all the time

What do you see when you turn out the light

I can't tell you but I know it's mine,

 

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends

Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends

 

Do you need anybody

I just need someone to love

Could it be anybody

I want somebody to love.

 

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

with a little help from my friends.
