Untitled[edit]

Most of the 1980s-1990s has been lifted from Marty Paich's website. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.125.135.72 (talk) 08:43, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Straight up right! I just removed the worst of the flowery adjectives and PR type praise. This article looks like it was executed by a family member, someone representing Paich's estate & legacy, or maybe an ardent admirer. In any event, the worst of the worst has been excised.

1980s to 1990s[edit]

Paich's work in the 1980s to 1990s built on his long-standing reputation as an artist of wide stylistic gifts, particularly in scoring for strings (he was often hired to 'sweeten' the work of other arrangers), and he received calls to work for musicians ranging from Barbra Streisand to Michael Jackson. During the same period, he became active in film, often working as conductor (and on-site arranger) in a number of well-received studio projects. In 1984, he conducted the Vienna Symphony Orchestra's recording of the Dune soundtrack composed by Toto. Paich's other film work, usually scored by his student James Newton Howard, included Flatliners, For The Boys, Grand Canyon, The Package, Pretty Woman and Prince of Tides.

In 1991, he was honored at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion by Singers' Salute to the Songwriter, Inc., and there received the title 'Songwriter of the Year'. He also led the Los Angeles Philharmonic at the Hollywood Bowl in what would be one of Sarah Vaughan's last public appearances. In this latter period, he announced a semi-retirement to his beloved ranch on Baseline Road in Santa Ynez. From this domain, he worked on occasional projects, the last of which was with Aretha Franklin.

Up, Up and Away[edit]

was one of Mr. Paich's most proud Gold records on the walls of his sumptuous Hidden Hills house. I grew up in his home in the 70s, his daughter Lorrie's first serious boyfriend. Toto, his son's band, had tanked their first three albums and CBS was pretty pissed, so Marty and Joe (Porcaro) got involved and put out Toto IV calling in all their Grammy votes and won. In my mind, and I was there, the father's deserve band credit because Toto never did anything on note since then. 2603:8001:B902:B5B4:5417:70F0:B38B:D9BB (talk) 01:53, 5 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The first Toto album didn't tank!! The premise that the success of Toto 4 was anything but due to the musical skills of the band is ridiculous. And, if you think Toto hasn't done anything "of note" since then, you are deaf and blind. Mklisi65 (talk) 10:03, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Should I add a image[edit]

I found this image on David Paich's page and it is of David Paich, Michael Jackson and Marty Paich in 1991. I cant find a place in the article to put it, if anyone knows where I should put it in the article let me know.
