You’ll hear that song and at least one other hit from Hay on the 17th. You remember Colin Hay‘s distinctive vocal timbre on the international hit “Down Under” from the band Men at Work. Plus, he has written and released at least one solo album. He has written songs for Atlantic Starr, Smokey Robinson, Jeffrey Osborne, George Benson, and Diana Ross. He has played with Aretha Franklin, Chaka Khan, David Sanborn, and countless others, but most notably, bass for Paul McCartney.

Expect to hear him lead the All-Starr band in “Rosanna” and Toto’s number one hit, “Africa.” Edgar Winter performing with Ringo Starr in 2011. Steve Lukather is best known as the sole continuous founding member of the rock band Toto. He released an album of his own songs, “ Come on Children,” in 2000.Įdgar Winter had a number one hit in 1972 with the rock instrumental “Frankenstein,” which he plays in Ringo’s show, along with his other big ’70s hit, “Free Ride.” He plays saxophone, and flute and sings lead and backing vocals. Warren Ham is best known as a member of Kansas, but he has had stints with Toto, David Gates, Cher, Donna Summer, and many others. So the players take turns fronting the band, and the result is a sort of greatest hits show with Ringo serving as master of ceremonies. Starr understands the value (and fun) of sharing the spotlight with his entire lineup of hit-making musicians. And what would be the point of taking the stage with an actual all-star band if none of the stars got to perform their own music? For example, why on earth would you engage Steve Lukather to play guitar in your band if you didn’t intend to put him in the spotlight performing one of the hits from his old band, Toto? (You can expect at least two from Lukather in this show.) Toto guitarist Steve Lukather performing in 2017. Ringo’s is: Every member of his band has at one time or another participated in hit recordings - classics that are still getting airplay decades after their initial release.
