Leonid has no idea. Since I discovered his channel >50% of my YT time is dedicated to his fabulous music ;))
You are CERTAINLY not alone❣️ I'm so grateful to be a part of this family ❤️🍻😎
This band is just amazing. Can't get enough....
I'm sure he knows, they do read comments👍😀
I am 100% with you on that. They are incredible!
I know what you mean. I listen to their covers way more than I listen to Chicago.
No band has made me smile so much the last couple of years as Leonid & Friends. It's both because there are so many memories after growing up with the music of Chicago, but most of all in the wonderful way they perform with 100% correct style and world class performance on all instruments and singing. I get still impressed every single time although I have heard this wonderful gang so so much now :) I love you all!
World class, indeed..
Me, too, my sentiments exactly. Go see them when you can, we did in July, 2019, it was well worth the $29/ticket base price. You will not be disappointed!
We The Kingdom, ORIGINALS.
I agree 10000000000% One simply can't help but smile and feel joy when listening to L&Fs due to their individual and collective UTTER GREATNESS!
Leonid and Friends have a cover band called Chicago, perhaps you have heard of them.
...OK...that's funny!
LMAO! I LOVE it! Hilarious!!!! I actually think that the real Chicago should do shows with L & F either opening or closing for them. With the sound of L & F, I think that Chicago should actually open for them...
You might be onto something there...
Oh so true! The student is the teacher now.....
Scott Andrews too funny
There are no words. You are currently the best band in the world. Period!!!!
I know of no other band where all the members are so equally highly talented as in this band.
That's why we have seen them in concert three times already, going for a fourth this June, 2023. Go see them if you can, it's worth it! :)
How about the original Chicago?
After listening to L & F "I've been sesrching so long" rendition I was wondering if they would dare to do Mongonucleosis studio version which is really hard to cover because of the big percussion and horns lineup. I should not be surprised but I am, Leonid did it again. Congratulations Maestro & Friends. Greetings from México 🇲🇽
I wasn't surprised at all. Was waiting for it.
I just KNEW Leonid would do this one as well...epic perfornance 💗
Those of us who regularly listened to the Chicago VII album automatically expect to hear "Mongonucleosis" kick in right after the last chord of "I've Been Searchin" So Long," especially after hearing Leonid and Friends' rendition of the latter. Now they've given it to us and we are so grateful for another superb replication. True, one must click on another CZcams video to experience the sequence with which we became so familiar back in the '70s, but a small price to pay to enjoy the musical brilliance of our friends from Russia and neighboring republics.
@@stevelee6174 My thoughts and feelings exactly! You must have been reading my mind... :)
I really didn't think that L&F would even attempt "(I've Been) Searching So Long", given that string component. I'm glad I was wrong, Leonid just pulls a ten-piece string section out of his hat, and the result is yet another masterful performance. And now the next track off Side 3, Chicago VII, another great job! :)
If they can do Street Player, they really can do ANYTHING
This is easily one of L&F's best performances (out of an enormous list of greats)!
Love L&F. First band to really get my heart pumping in years. Got chills seeing them live.
Me too. X3. Going for #4 in June, 2023/
As good as this song was in 1974, when I graduated from high school, what makes this cover so special is actually seeing L&F doing it! Their enthusiasm, energy, and sense of just "having fun" makes this "deep cut" from Chicago VII something really special. Keep up the good work, L&F, you are the best! See you as soon as you are able! :)
You know what one of the most amazing aspects of this video is? ( Besides the excellent musicianship, sheer talent and enthusiasm, I mean). THE MIX.
The mix on this video is INCREDIBLE. I mean, you hear EVERYTHING. Each note, each instrument, each voice with perfect clarity.
Thank you so much Leonid, for ANOTHER element of a superbly well-done series of performances!
I must agree. The sound engineering is super duper fantastic !
Yes. I would pay highly for them to do a seminar explaining how they do it. I just don't know how it's possible.
Love This Band!
The song is not nearly as good as your enthusiasm and execution! It was YOU GUYS that made it great!! Much love to you all!!
Surely you jest!!!
This song always manages to bring a smile to my face. Such positive, happy energy going on here!
Just wedged in between "(I've Been) Searching So Long" and "The Song of the Evergreens". And the best album of all from Chicago, faithfully reproduced by L&F. Go see them in concert, we have three times, going for #4 in June, 2023. You will nit be disappointed! :)
The first Chicago cover band I played in (16 years old) played this. I’m a trumpeter and the High D (concert) at 1:13 nearly had me passing out (when I actually hit it!) !
So great hearing Leonid and his friends playing Mongonucleosis!
Michael Fox I can't help wondering...Is your middle initial J ?? 😉 Love this band !! I had to extend my data because of them !! Btw, if I must say....you are a very handsome man. 😏
I just played that D on guitar and didn't have a bit of trouble. (ducks and runs as trumpeter throws mouth piece at guitarist...)
BRAVO MAESTRO, BRAVO Leonid & Friends!
I've seen this band and it's the finest performance of Chicago you'll ever see. Nothing like it.
Watching this horn section, especially Andrey the awesome trumpet player, brings me back to my high school band days. Chicago, Earth Wind and Fire, and any number of ska bands suddenly became these wonders of musical exploration and discovery. Once you have the experience of playing in an ensemble of people who are all becoming passionate about music, you never forget it.
Glad to see the " Clap and Shout" guys are back!
I love their energy! They add even more energy to the already huge amount of fun and happiness to the songs that they are a part of!
This was a pleasent surprise! Can't stop re-visiting your vídeos again and again!!!🤗
In majority of songs these talented artist have produced, they all smile, I think it's more than appreciation that makes them appreciate the opportunity and joy.
The bass does all the heavy lifting in this one. A++
I love the goofy, little guy in the yellow shirt; he’s having such a great time!
This group always has a good time, even on stage. We have seen them three times there, you can see it in their eyes and in their smiles! :)
Never heard this Chicago song, but wow! can't stop watching how much fun they're having!
Thanks for giving me joy everytime you post a fantastic video....takes my mind off the craziness going on in our country right now
Russia's rock, funk, latin masters. You guys kill everything you do. Amazing work by all, as usual.
Love the additions to the percussion section. Maxim and Oleg mmmm. Just shows you how much everyone enjoys playing together. They are having a heck of a good time!
One simply can't help but smile and feel deep joy when listening to L&Fs due to their individual and collective UTTER GREATNESS! ... And Leonid is a genius all on his own!
They look like they are having a blast! Excellent musicians!
You guys were having a little fun there sorry about all the tough times hopefully one day it's going to get better and you guys get to come backUSA you guys are just totally awesome
As said before
As long as I have been listening to Leonid & friends they have not disappointed. Can't wait for the next tune to come out. Thank you Leonid & Friends!
Leonid and friends does it again!
Omg. I saw a quick glance at the bass. I still have my 1980 fender jazz bass but , I had a polished brass plate made just like the bass player and on stage people would complain in the audience that the stage light really reflected on the bass n into their eyes.lol. I never changed it.nice bass n I follow all your videos.totally amazing musicians.I’m 65 n gave up playing years ago and became a finished carpenter but I had 1/2 my life playing in bands.great sound everybody.
Leonid you are Brilliant!
What a great way to start a Monday morning! Awesome! Happy dance!! 💃🕺❤️
Sometimes all you need is a cheerful instrumental. That was one of them! ( never heard it before ). It was so good to see Ksenya again. She is such a hornbag, as we used to say down here in Oz. I have a crush!
Excellent contagious rhythm with unmistakable Latin sound to dance. very talented group Leonidas. 🎶👏
I🇨🇦 it's the tights band out there ....amazing group .....lovin it from Toronto Canada.
After CTA this is probably my favourite Chicago song and you guys absolutely killed it. Well done. Look forward to seeing you live.
Amazing horn section arrangments, NICE WORK !!
I've been holding my breath since the end of I'VE BEEN SEARCHIN' SO LONG, back when we listened to entire LPs!
I keep listening weekly to all of your songs. You play them all very well. Your excitement is contagious.
Nothing like a bunch of great musicians having fun making great music. Thanks to one and all--that was great to listen to and fun to see!
I didn't know I liked Chicago until I found these folks.
this is what happens when you have many pro musicians gathered ... Leonid is fun to watch He is still directing the music as a professional conductor watching his students. Leonid has a dream ! and i am there. cant wait until you all return !
Yet another great song from these guys! One of the best concerts I've ever been to when they came to Portland, Oregon!
Wonderful....it’s 5 am in Ca but I’m up and dancing! Leonid...always love your work but your Bass in this....terrific ❤️
Nothing short of A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!!! I've never been disappointed whenever I bring up one of their videos!
It's amazing to me how the mix is so precise. Every instrument and voice can be heard! Marvelous! Such a great sound engineer!
With all the bad stuff going on in the U.S, it is always so much fun having a gift from Russia with love show up in the CZcams queue. Thank you L&F for your humanity.
I would enjoy being part of this band, they are having a lot of fun!
They are a blast to see live and super friendly and sweet. I felt I was having a family reunion with them !
Didn’t know a trombone player could play such good percussion! Amazing and wonderful Latin beat!
That bass sounds AMAAAAAAAAAAAAZING!
Just like Peter Cetera did it.
What an awesome sound! It put such a huge smile on my face watching the band perform it. They look like they were having SO much fun!
The BEST BAND in the World!
Bravissimi! From Italy with love.
Amazing! From Chicago 7, my favorite album! Well done!!!
¡Felicitaciones Leonid & Friends, les quedo muy bien! ojala pronto puedan venir a México para disfrutar en vivo su música.
Thank you do much for all your phenomenal talent. You all are amazing.... I can’t get you out of my head. I’m from sunny California and listen to you all daily. Love your talent
Wow! Again, great music and fun to watch! They brighten any day you watch and listen to them. Thanks for taking the time to play and post. Can’t wait till their tour resumes and comes to Atlanta.
Y'all having too much fun! Keep them coming I love it whenever I see a new video posted by the fabulous Leonid & Friends.
This group is so amazing. I click on every video I can find of them. Chicago has got to be proud of this sound.
They look like they are having fun. 😊
And they do the same in concert. Go see them when you can, it's well worth it!!
You are giving us the very original Chicago sound with your perfectly executed covers..... that is why all Chicago fans are here, including me.
I love how smooth Andrey Zyl is on the trumpet!
Everything is absolutely spot on!!
I love this!! Fender Rhodes keys, Dizzy Gillespie style cornet, Florida Gators and Ohio State Buckeyes t-shirts!! You guys are so awesome!!
Just fantastic!! What a wonderful way to start my work week!
Спасибо!
FANTASTIC JOB !!!!! Bring the conga player with you next tour. He is smokin hot!
Another fantastic cover👍It makes me happy, watching whatever they put out there, and seeing them have such a good time performing 😃
Get the chairs out!
One of my favourite Chicago grooves. Thank you
The enthusiasm is contagious!
Another fine piece by this group! I cannot state how fantastic they are!
Fabulous fat sound !!!
This band loves what they do. You can see it on their faces.
Indeed, they do. They even do it in concert, which we have been able to to twice so far, next one is 7/8/21, can't wait!
Love to see Leonid smiling! He is living his dream! I am in awe of his ability to transcribe all of this complex composition. Great musicians, great energy.....love it!
Good gawd did that just put great big smile on my face!.
Saw Leonid and Friends doing their Chicago set, in Naples FL just about 1 year ago today. It's a good time.
To say the people here are enjoying themselves is the understatement of the year.
Dam, the trumpet player has chops!
No doubt. But what I really wanna know is where he got that plaid suit.
@@stevelee6174 That is Andrey Zyl, it is his more-or-less signature uniform. He wore this at the L&F concert of 7/19 in Jim Thorpe, PA. It is what it is, and I like what it is.
Oh my goodness, they have such a first class horn section!! Their percussions really knock it out of the park!! Leonid, you and your crew never fail to disappoint!! Thank you for making us smile just a little more during this pandemic. Stay safe, you guys!!! 😊😍❤️💕
From Chile, amazing!
I have been waiting for this one! Or better said: (I"ve been) searchin' so long! Excellent job brothers and sister! Another one from Chicago VII
Me, too! :)
This guy is now one of my favorite drummers. Pocket drummer, great sounding drums. Hope to see the band in Vegas!
and again......speechless! TYVM
Love this group!!!!!!!
Whenever this group has a new Chicago cover, I would immediately look for that song in its original recording. They always seem to get it right spot on. Just like this one. Great job!
I do too, from the vinyl that I bought in high school. It is always spot on, that's what makes it so cool!
Sound is unbelievable! 🔈💭❤️👍🔈
(Chicago) - Ochen Horosho!!! (Close???) - Everything is great! All of you - the vocals and arrangements; the video production and even Leonid's new hairstyle! Bravo!!!!
I really love this Chicago's happy boisterous song and Leonid & Friends just nail it perfectly! Well done!
Je suis raide dingue de Chicago depuis leur début. Et de Chicagoski ... depuis leur début. Bravo Leonid; Bravo les Friends!
Absolutely Perfect bravo
Ksenya rocking that guiro
Ksenia can rock my güiro anytime...
@@74bshs thanks for keeping sexism alive and well in rock
Always Ksenya # 1 ! !
Masterful as always!
When I saw Ksenia playing the güiro, that crack me out, lol. Didn't expect it!!! I had to donate to this incredible band. Please help everybody that can.🎼🎵🎹🎺🎷🎸🎤
I really want to help them, but just started a new job, so it's a little hard to right now...really love them though! Fantastic sound and talent!
Glad you felt that way. I donated too, like three times over the last year. Keep it up! Hope to see L&F on 6/12/21 in Jim Thorpe, PA, as we did there in July of 2019.
one of my favorite chicago songs.
Love you all...but the drummer sporting my Ohio State Buckeyes T shirt is a winner...Sending thanks for great music from Cincinnati, Ohio USA!!
Also notice a Florida Gators shirt...ROLL TIDE from central Alabama!
Love the music !!!
Love your work, please come to Australia when you can
MAM, Those extra horns sound GREAT ! ! !
Imagine for a second,,, Chicago, jamming with Earth, Wind, and Fire.
As the days of Noah Live right there are videos on CZcams of just that!
I’m Weak For Deaky thanks!!!! I had no idea.
They have toured together before. I saw them in Laredo, Texas and shared the stage. The song “After The Love Is Gone” was written by one of the members from Chicago!
@@joelopez843 vero! TRUE!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I have a better idea. Chicago jammin' with Leonid and Friends!!
I'm a big fan of the band, look forward to seeing you guys live.. Nice job..👍
