    Danil has now proven his vocal range, he can be both Maurice White and Philip Bailey. I think I’ve listened to this at least 15 times, it gets better each listen. I’m looking forward to this during the concert. There’s no way I’ll be sitting, can’t help but dance along.

    Hi Jeff -
    So I had the pleasure of sitting in with the band last week on tour while Vasily was ill.
    I just want people to know that these people are even better humans than they are musicians. They are kind and generous and funny, while also being professional.
    If you haven’t seen them in concert, GO NOW. It’s like magic if this is your kind of music.

    Jeff, thank you for considering this song and doing a review. I thought you might enjoy it. The release on FB generated 22,400 views in less than 3 hours if I recall correctly. It's so fun to watch the facial reactions of the musicians as they perform. This song, and may of the others performed by Leonid & Friends, quite simply demonstrates the virtuosity of every single musician and singer in this group. I am constantly amazed at the songs they do and the perfection they achieve. Again, thank you for a "same-day" review. Keep up the great work and be sure to see these guys if they are booked into a venue close by - you will NOT regret it! Already have tickets to the show in Houston (The Woodlands actually), and assuming they are booked into Dallas this year, will go to that show as well. All the best Jeff!!!

    What's interesting to note about Danil, is that when he joined the group, his English wasn't up to par with the other group members, so he's come a long way with that since then, ... and to be the lead vocalist for several songs, it tells you a lot about Leonid's confidence in him.

My hats off to Leonid for pulling this through and getting the right players who were interested in doing it correctly That's all it takes.Some just do not care to do it correctly. That is why you need to be with the pro's who are interested. Love this group I would jam with them in a second. Finally, you can tell everyone had their parts no egos and just enjoying each other.

    FYI Jeff, there’s another new one that is coming. As with the last tour they released one just before it started with the second being released sometime during the first few concerts. No idea what it will be but you know by now it’ll be amazing. 🎉

      I’m waiting patiently for that new release. Okay maybe not patiently, but with happy anticipation 😊
