Michael Joseph Porcaro (May 29, 1955 – March 15, 2015) was an American bass player known for his work with the rock band Toto.
Jeff said that he himself wasn't the best drummer, adding that Mike was a better player than him before he switched to bass, while Steve later took up piano before they moved to California.
[4] Porcaro stopped performing with Toto in 2007 after experiencing a growing weakness in his fingers that was making it increasingly difficult for him to play.
[7] In 2011, Porcaro released his debut album, "Brotherly Love," which would contain tracks from the band Toto, like "Rosanna," "Africa," "Georgy Porgy" and English Eyes, and also Michael Jackson's "Human Nature."
Three years after his death, in 2018, Porcaro and his brother Jeff (who died in 1992) appeared on two Toto albums, where the band used archived recordings of both musicians from the mid-1980s.
