    The production values are off the charts, unlike anything I've ever heard on any of the songs they choose to cover. The subtle elements that are back in the mix in the originals are brought so far forward it creates a ridiculous wall of sound effect that completely overwhelmes you as a listener and it seriously becomes almost a religious experience for those who heard these songs when they were first released. These people leave me speechless after every song. I just sit there in amazement at their accomplishment.

      @@theweyI love Igor and he is a great drummer - but I'm not quite ready to give him the title. You still have Mike Portnoy, Steve Gadd, Danny Carey, Aaron Mellegard, Vinnie Colaiuta, Dave Weckl, John Freese, Gavin Harrison, I truly don't believe there is a single "greatest" drummer today - there are a top tier that play different styles and have different approaches. It's also hard to compare jazz and rock drummer (although 99 percent of the list of greatest drummers (and guitarists for that matter) only focus on rock drummers from iconic bands. Still Igor is at the top, I will say that.

  • @jamesrawlins735
    @jamesrawlins735 Před 3 měsíci +9

    Lighthouse absolutely used strings for its songs. In fact when Skip Prokop was creating Lighthouse, his thought was to combine a Jazz horn-quartet, string quartet and a rock rhythm section into one band. Btw, Howard Shore (the Oscar winning film composer (the LOTR movie scores) and original SNL music director) was the alto sax player in Lighthouse.

  • @louisragno9630

    One if my favorite tracks from the seventies. I was really into the big sound of the horn- based ensembles like Lighthouse, Chicago and Blood, Sweat and Tears. Jeff, your analysis of this cover was spot on; and I'm glad you honed in on the piano solo; that was always a highlight for me. Love the way this song builds to a frenzied finish. And what more can be said about Leonid & Friends; their cover efforts are just exquisite.!

  • @davidbrownstein1464

    Don't you love the faces of the strings as they play with them? 😊Last April, after picking them up at the Miami airport for the beginning of that tour, I got to see their first time playing that song in a concert in Key West. The audience went crazy when they finished!

    Thanks Jeff - Great tribute to Skip Prokop from Hamilton Ontario. And No that guitar solo was extended masterfully by about 15-20 bars. The syncing from the guitar solo to the band entrance at 5;20 Start here@5:15 is so bang on. And yes the fidelity is so good. love it.

  • @aliassmithandjones9453

    Yes, strings were part of the original. In fact, what made Lighthouse really unique was that they had both a cellist and violist (no, not a violinist) in the group.

    The arrangement by Keith Jolimore (one of the sax players in the original band) was very powerful, but L&F multiply its power. Have you noticed that L&F always adjusts the brass section to the tracks that the original musicians dubbed? On this track, two trumpets (Pantaluk doubled) and baritone sax: Howard Shore (yes, the composer of "The Lord of the Rings" soundtrack) played tenor and baritone in the original recordings. All L&F covers have an amazing level of detail and depth. And what to say about Igor? Wow

    @48dirtfarmer Před 3 měsíci +5

    Saw Lighthouse live many times. The piano solo was spot on...the guitar solo expanded on Ralph Cole's original...and this guitarist is very gifted. AND there were always strings in Lighthouse...and playing trumpet in the original band was Howard Shore, who went on to compose the scores for The Lord of the Rings and Hobbit trilogies.
