įurthermore, Lukather says that "not everything was written out". In an interview with MusicRadar, Lukather described the recording process as the easiest and most enjoyable of his career to date. There were "very minimal overdubs", specifically some double-guitar parts and the vocals. As claimed by Lukather: "all that stuff you're hearing is being played live", including the solos. In order to achieve that, the whole album was recorded in eight days in February 2020, "recording a song a day", with no rehearsals, demos, click tracks or computers. In his own words: "I wanted to see if I could do it the way we used to do it".
Lukather desired to do an old-school, early 70s vibe record. As Williams was already working on a solo album, Lukather decided to release one himself too, with both of them collaborating on each other's efforts. Īfter this situation, Lukather says that him and Joseph Williams were "the only ones who wanted to keep working". Furthermore, Paich's health was pretty fragile so he wasn't able to tour. This, according to Lukather, drove a wedge between him and then-member of Toto Steve Porcaro. Tensions were rising within the band and its management because of a lawsuit Susan Porcaro-Goings ( Jeff Porcaro's widow) had against Lukather and David Paich, the sole directors of Toto Corporation, because she hadn't been paid money due her former husband's estate.
The then current lineup of Toto played their last show on October 20, 2019, before breaking. This is Lukather's first solo studio album in eight years, following Transition (2013), marking the longest gap between two albums to date. It was released on February 26, 2021, the same day as his bandmate from Toto, Joseph Williams, released his album Denizen Tenant under the same label. I Found the Sun Again is the eighth studio album by Steve Lukather, released by The Players Club ( Mascot Label Group).
