Frontman believes his band has been unfairly blackballed from the HOF.

The statement comes courtesy of a new interview with the music blog Misplaced Straws.

When asked why Toto, who have been Hall of Fame eligible since 1998, has yet to be enshrined, Lukather didn’t mince words.

when you look up their members, their last names (lukather, Porcaro, Paich) read like a who’s who of rock all-stars. They’ve been all over the place. I’m not keen on Africa because it’s overplayed, but will defend it because the left now hates it. I hate the name Rosanna, but think the song is OK. Hold The Line is awesome, Georgie Porgy is really, good, too.

So did Frank Zappa, so I’ll take Zappa as the last word on Toto for the Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame.

The rock and roll hall of fame sucks, In have been there but the fact that the insipid band Toto was never inducted does not keep me up at night.

Yacht Rock, but nonetheless a talented and well-produced band.

They have some hits that got a lot of airplay. Let them in! And Pete Rose, too!
