It’s 2024 and I assume nobody will see this comment, but I’m going to say I really love this band!
Hey I saw your comment today, and I love this band too! Nobody can cover a Chicago tune quite like Leonid & Friends
I see it. Me too for a couple of years
I saw them in concert.They were great.
Oh oh yeah
I saw it too... and LOVE this band. Former trumpet player here.
I love these people for making me happy.
Same here😂I listen to them every day and can’t wait to attend another of their awesome concerts 🔥🔥🔥👯♀️👯♀️🔥🌹🌹🌹💃🏽🕺🏽
Me too, catch them here in California ‼️
This is what happens when you get the right caliber of musicians together
My doctor said I must watch this every day and it will cure anything.
Those guys are amazing!!!
Agreed! We miss you in F1 my friend.
XD Your doctor is right...
Curious! so did mine :D
Chuckles
This is PERFECT!!! Everybody is SO good!! perfect!! and OMG SHE IS ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!
I discovered Leonid & Friends by accident, what a joyous find.
Me too. Right here. SO glad they played it up to Chicago's standards! Very tight and right!
Ditto!
Wow, I’ve listened to all their songs on a playlist. Chicago is my favorite all-time and this band definitely did them justice! Respect!!!
One of the best covers of any song I've heard. And the drummer is awesome.
He is a drumming machine.!!!
Okay, I've listened to this band, then put my Chicago records on and listened …..I have an announcement to make.... Leonid & Friends play Chicago songs better than Chicago! Who's with me?
The recording is clearer for sure. A lot of Chicago's recordings are muddy, missing top end. Don't forget Chicago wrote these classics...!
Many of Chicago's old records sound really really bad, I say as a long time mix-enginneer. No low end, boxyness, horns sound like kazoos, unpleasant mids and so forth. Hearing THIS brought tears to my eyes. It's JUST the way it has sounded in my head for YEARS, and there it is, coming out of my speakers in the studio. And mind you : I'm in an acousticly treated room with GREAT speakers, and "Chicagovich I&II" sound ABSOLUTELY fab here. Top Notch! There are minor things I'd done a bit differently, but all in all : Lenoid & Friends NAILED IT!
My husband and I say the same thing
They are Great, but not better.
I'm with you
ok, I've seen them do Beginnings and now this, my 2 favorite Chicago songs, I can die happy.
WTF kind of sorcery is this?! How come I am just discovering these musical geniuses? I am totally blown away🤯🤯🤯
Bahahahaha...me too!
Have you seen their version of Steely Dan's My Old School? O. M. G.
Same here...I would love to see them play here in Toronto...wow
LoL@ wtf kind of sorcery is this?
Awesome comment; "what kind of sorcery?" (LMAO at that) - but these cats are incredible!!!!
Nobody ever mentions the keyboardist. That guy is always right on the money!!!
True...but, what about that handsome trumpet player? Mmmmmmm! 😃
VLAD but he is no longer with the band.
Absolutely amazing!!
Igor the drummer is awesome !!!
They are all spot on and excellent musicians, much 💘
The more I listen, the more this drummer just blows my mind.
he is perfect.
RIGHT?
He is so good that it’s easy to take him for granted
He is badass..
Thumbs down from me on this performance. Great technical skill, but the bell is the key to the outro on this tune and for some reason the guy is allergic to it.
I think I've watched this song 40 times in two weeks
Shows how amazing the original band Chicago was. To have a great ensemble like this performing your stuff, legendary.
Imagine. Singing in a foreign language, that you do not speak. Their phrasing, inflection is spot on. And the Guitarist. Killer. They all are Ace musicians. They don't coveer Chicago, they become 'Chicagovich', as it's written on signs in Moscow. A Joy to hear soemthing from Russia besides Putin, and Ukraine. These guys ain't gettin' rich. Do it for the love of playing.
.I stumbled onto something so incredible
The lead singer is from Ukraine ......he's the only one not from Russia. I agree though ....... I grew up with Chicago and I can't go more than a few days without watching/listening to this ensemble. To realize they don't speak English and the leader/bassist had to dissect each instrument note by note to compose is beyond genius to me.
@@PresidentGas1 I love this group, they sound more like Chicago than Chicago does !!
They’re not native English speakers??!!
@@tacticalultimatum They can hardly speak English at all in fact.
1:43 Drummers wearing a cool Leonid and Friends shirt that says "Chicagovich" across the bottom.
after having been a musician and singer for well over 40 years I can honestly say this was absolute perfection, and could not have possibly been done any better.
Holy shit... Just HOLY SHIT!!!! 15 yr metal vocalist, raised with old school rock. Gma's gone, my old man is still alive... This is my favorite cover of this song, hands down. You all nailed it!!! I can't express enough, the nostalgia & joy your cover brought. Thank you so much!!!
First off, this is mixed to absolute perfection. What a band! Good Lord, this is perfect in every way. Every note. They play with joy and they clearly respect the music they are playing, you can hear it and see it on every member of the band. Well done!!
RTR!
Amen, RTR, and I can't believe I'm going to see them tomorrow night in a small south Georgia town. The week after I'll be in Title Town.
@@stephendanley1858 that's a great week brother! Enjoy the show. Just saw them in NYC. Terrific show, the energy was fantastic.
RTR from Al.
THIS IS WONDERFUL! What an amazing sound that takes us 73-year-olds back to our youth! Great band!
same here! I’m also 73 and been loving this band for 6 years now
This band has become my drug of choice....in this upside down world we now live in, they not only right my ship but they elevate me to new highs of hope!
God bless them all!
Me, too! I come back time and time again to get my "fix."
Well said! They bring me to tears with their talent and passion.
🙃
I listen to them all the time!!
God bless them _and_ you. Be well and stay safe, Tony.

One of my favorite parts of watching and rewatching these videos is seeing how much sheer JOY these guys inspire in thousands upon thousands of commenters. And it’s because they themselves are playing these great songs out of joy. Not the music biz; not band politics: pure joy. Thank you thank you thank you!!
Totally agree. The JOY exudes from every pore!! Magical.
Yeah, that's what I like best about them, their joyous energy just lifts me up every time.
You know it is going to be a great day when you see a new Leonid and Friends video pop up!
As an old, old, drummer myself let me just say you have a master drummer for your group.
yeah, he's critical and does a great job.
He makes it look easy
The drummer SHREDS!! Great talent.
I played too and this guy is good!
Igor rocks
You ruskies do a great rendition of my favorite Chicago song. Well done 👏
WOW I am literally in tears here folks. The precision of this fantastic band is outstanding. Superbly done.
Ludgero Mendonca agree completely.
Ludgero Mendonca well said!!
Right there with you.
I cannot agree more. I have not been moved by a band like this in decades. This is truly unique, outstanding, a gem, a diamond
Outstanding! I agree!
I''m a 62 year old, who's been a Chicago fan from their beginning in 1970. My older Step-Sister gave me their first album, when they were still "Chicago Transit Authority", and I've loved them since. You guys... you guys...I'm speechless. If I wasn't watching the video, I'd swear I was listening to Chicago themselves. As a Tribute/ Cover band, that's as good as it gets. All I can say, is if you were to Come to my area, (after Covid-19 passes of course...), I'd gladly pay to see you perform live. Thank you for making a dreary morning bright.
I am the same age and have/had the same album and have been a fan ever since it first came out. I guess I'm going on half a century at this point..
One of my first eight track tapes - Chicago Transit Authority.
Me too. Incredible sound.
Same here 47 years old. "X" and what came before was a huge part of my childhood. Terry Kaths voice was a soothing experience in a chaotic world for a small mind.
I'm 65 and Chicago was the first concert I ever saw. They've always been special to me. I love these guys.
This is the best cover band on the planet. No...wait...this is the best band on the planet.
Hello it s really good
I m french and i love chicago
The spirit is real and i think listen chicago
Goid job
Spectacular.
Here's a group of 'Russians' who colluded to shut everyone else out of the running for the title of "Best Tribute Band"...
Appreciation and gratitude from the United States!
AWESOME response, arcdrummer! All of this "collusion" is turning out to be a GREAT thing! LMAO!
MCGA -- Making Chicago Great Again!
LOL
They're really putin on a great show in this video. They're not rushin' it at all.
LOL!
Terry kath is definitely looking down & smiling upon you great guys
Totally agree....not to mention all of the "Chicago" fans still here! :-)
@@carrollshelby8690 Terry was high, drunk & tired. It was an accident.
There’s nothing that ever said he intended to do it. Fact is, while it’s possible he was drunk or stoned at the time, surely in his mind he thought the chamber was empty.
I doubt at all it was intentional. Ergo he is in heaven.
Definitely
You do Chicago better than Chicago and its not even close. I love you guys and your music makes me super happy. If I were rich I'd go to Russia just to see you.
At this point I'm wondering, How did you beautiful people with so much talent find each other to create what you have done, I'm truly in awe. You people are so good, I have no words
Must to recognize that This band Is simply stunning..... A real pleasure they revive the Chicago music.....
I don't have enough adjectives in my vocabulary to describe how much I love this band! Just amazing.
Ksenya Buzina is awesome vocals she rocks -)
And she is gorgeous 😊
Vous êtes simplement incroyables. Continuez encore longtemps les gars, ce que vous faites est merveilleux.
I’ve had the pleasure of seeing Leonid & Friends “Live” twice. They put on an amazing performance and are spot-on on every song. I never got to see Chicago live but after seeing Leonid & Friends, I feel like I have. They are awesome!
Fantastic job
Three years ago, I fell in love with a Russian woman. I began to learn more about the culture, people and the country that I was raised and trained to hate or kill if needed. I served in the USAF in Berlin during the cold war. But these people are genuine, loving, family oriented and loyal. I found this band two weeks ago and needless to say, growing up in the 70's, EWF & Chicago were at the top of the charts. THANKS for this beautiful music and my Elena :)
Frank, my heart sings joy to you and your loved one! Let's have peace for once
They say they cover these songs and they put on an exceptional musical show, lots of Chicago and Earth Wind and Fire
This band is soooo tight!
Man, Serge on lead vocals has an incredible smoothness in a high register. I'd like to hear him cover some Boston tunes.
Maybe some Doobies and Triumph as well.
His name now is Sergetera...
babongo ‘More Than a Feeling’
Great tone and range....Cetera would be proud!
Tracy Marko Cetera has little room in his heart for anyone but Cetera
This song is so good it is hard to decide who to compliment more... horns, drums, keyboard, vocals, guitar, bass, background vocals, wow. This is a perfect song.
Saw them a few weeks ago. I had tears in my eyes they were so good. I may have to go to St. Pete in Dec. to see them again. Great musicians.
The horns just floor me every time.
Um ... the girl.
@@adamgoodnature9009 Horns...horns...the best !!!
Let's say drums!
The Voices that spark the heart to project Waves and Tsunamis of Love All Over The World. Thank you, the world needs that saturation.
Absolutely ❤🌹🌹🌹
They're killin it. I'm happy that we have an opportunity to listen to this band live.
They got it right with this song......actually all they've done..
Dam, there just is not one weak element in this group of musicians. Bravo!!!!!!
My thoughts exactly. The technical proficiency and natural talent of every member of the group is spot on.
I can't get over the phenomenal drummer! Amazing!
Throw bottles at me through the interwebs if you must, but I think this version is way better than Chicago's. Plus. they make it look so easy and joyful!
its fun to watch people having such a blast while knocking this song out of the park.
way better, no but very good, as close to being Chicago without being Chicago
Better. Amazing. Fun. I am rocking my ass off to their music tonight... how have I never heard of these guys before?
I understand you, the thing is the sound system today is much,much better
@@vg5157 Absolutely true and a very valid point. I think these guys may sound better to me b/c they aren't taking themselves too seriously and are just having a good time.
If I were an actual member of Chicago I’m not sure how I’d react to hearing this group. On the one hand I’d be incredibly impressed and while I wouldn’t necessarily feel threatened by them my ego might have a tough time praising them for how good they are. I drop dead every time I hear them.
Well, Danny Seraphine actually caught on to Leonid and Friends, and let his ex-band know about them. They proceeded to link a few of these videos to their official website which is really how LAF started making inroads to America then getting the demand for a USA tour. In fact, Danny actually sat in for Igor on drums for a couple tracks including Anybody Know What Time It Is on one of the shows. Not sure what the rest of the band that tours as Chicago thinks of these cats, but Danny himself is of 100% approval. He sat in ice cold and nailed it. You could tell the rest of the band was beside themselves, smiling at him like a 12 year old school girl while THE Danny Seraphine is playing drums in THEIR cover band. Don't forget, Leonid is focused on the first 5 albums, the albums that made Chicago the icons they are. For them, Danny might as well be Paul McCartney.
On a side note, if there was ever a reason for Chicago to let bygones be bygones and bring Danny back in to the band HE started, THAT'S it.
I saw them in Los Angeles on 1-12. Even got a photo with Ksenya - I was not leaving without that. Their US tour is over but I'm sure they'll be back. These guys are better than you can imagine and I've seen Chicago twice. They travel with just three guys on brass - the younger guys - and it's as tight as Chicago or what's in these videos. I told Leonid to add a couple of Bill Champlin songs - I don't think he understood me, but God love him because he really nails it on these songs. Vocals, guitars, keyboards, drums everything. Even added a nice little brass arrangement to Color My World. You have to see these guys. Chicago charges $100 for meet and greet photos but these guys did it for free. Excellent.
>Even got a photo with Ksenya - I was not leaving without that.
Oh, you bastard! ;)
I got to see them live in Annapolis Maryland in 2020 and my wife bought a meet and greet package so we got to chat with each one of them. They are as nice as they are exceptionally talented. I feel so fortunate that we got to see them with both Sergis in the band.
All the musicians are really really good but the drummer is exceptional!
Throw some creds to Vlad Senchillo on piano! He doesn't get mentioned much, but an essential member of this band.
Unfortunately he isn't with them anymore.
@@bryanlane3713
What?!!!!
@@bryanlane3713 Why? idk
The drummer!!! The guy rips on those sticks!🫡
They are unbelievably good. GO BROTHERS AND SISTERS!!
This group is REMARKABLE!🍩☕
holy shit, this is the best that I have ever seen
Excellent rendition. This group could give Chicago a run for their money.
Just saw them in Sacramento. Mind blown. I love to see their tours expanding and for them to get all of the recognition they deserve. Damn. Every one of them is an incredible musician.
Shit...I did not know they were here.....shit !!!!!!
When the COVID-19 thing is over I will travel a great distance to see them.
How did I not know they were in Sac-town? Bummed that I missed them.
I got 6 tickets (for me and friends) for 2021.
I hope they come back to Sacramento again - I will not miss them again.
That woman is the most beautiful creature I have ever seen. You are all very good, thank you!
She is definitely the diamond in the gold nugget pile
Couerl you are dead on Ksenia is not only easy on the eyes her voice is easy on the ears! Wonderful band!
When I first heard this song on the radio as a kid, I was so moved, I recorded it on my Radio Shack tape recorder and walked the neighborhood playing it full volume. I felt everyone needed to hear this.
Unbelievably GREAT!!!! How does this ONLY have 27K likes???? Thank you Leonid & Friends!!!
It's fun to watch Leonid, anchoring and binding everyone together with that thick bass line. The obvious excitement and pure joy on his face when everything is going just right, and he knows it.
#1 Chicago fan for four decades, I am yours too. Simply SUPERB!
Just discovered you, friend called, said man,you will NOT BELIEVE THIS!!!
59 year old bassist/Dad in Chicago.
Saw them,10th ,row, snuck up,lol,in 77.
One year later............
You all have now been bringing me to tears routinely.
The musicianship and just heavenly vocals just really move me.
This is very special music,you not only honor it,but play it just so wonderfully. I love to watch the fun you are having. Speck of Dust is the most beautiful piece of new music i have ever heard. Russian musicians have moved me so,practicing more,Leonid is a wonderful bassist.
Drums are spectacular, vocals make me cry.
God Bless you all in Moscow.
I can't tell you how much you have moved me.
Jim
Chicago
TEARS in my eyes, can't stop. Just an amazing, amazing job. Absolutely wonderful, Leonid. One "Like" isn't enough.
Damn straight!
ditto they are wonderful !!!!!!!!!
I could not agree more...
They are amazing...
Mr. Phillips, sir what you felt in your heart of hearts while listening to this incredible group of true musicians. Proof that music, & played like this is universal. I don't if it's my American DNA, or the Weed & Whiskey kicking in as I listen to them just like U did Sir Phillips. Well written sir, indeed. BTY: It's a combination of my American DNA, & this Weed that I can't STOP Smoking! Try it like that.
YES, they drive us to tears. Hasn't happened to me in oh, decades. Can't believe I just found out about this diamond, this gem.
The best Chicago cover band ever! Just amazing!
Classic example of a great band, “Chicago” vs. True artists, Leonid & Friends…..! Fantastic
The happiest band on CZcams.
All 15 of you are incredible! Please keep going. We want more.
NO WE DON'T . WE HAVE THE ORIGINAL RECORDINGS BY THE ORIGINAL ARTISTS TO LISTEN TO. WHY LISTEN TO COPYCATS WHO HAVE NO ORIGINALITY OF THEIR OWN ?
@@johnorabone6112 Your posts have lost their originality too..Why listen to what you have to say when you do nothing but cut and paste??
@@johnorabone6112 Why listen to copycats? Because they're the best goddamned Chicago copycats on the planet that not even the REAL Chicago can copy!!!
You guys are Killing It!!! Hats off to the whole production!
Lexington doesn't hold a candle ..... love you guys from Arizona!! USA
It takes world class musicians to play world class music. Awesome video. And the drummer just plain rocks.
Salute to the brass and woodwind guys in the band too. Let's face it.. without them even Chicago would have never been Chicago :o)
Wonderful!
Kudos to Chicago for writing some of the greatest music of the last 50 years. But even the mighty Chicago can't match Leonid and Friends in terms of emotion, energy, passion and joy when performing these classics live. Thank you Leonid and Friends, thank you!
Listening to this with a set of audiophile caliber headphones… what an outstanding job of mixing and editing. 👍
Going through a rough 2024 and this song is very inspirational!
Leonid and Friends.... FOREVER! I can't even begin to get enough of the talent in this collection of the some of the world's best musicians! Salute!!! Igor!!
You guys get stronger every day. Love this one, one of my favorites!
I think your as good as the original, maybe better.
Igor is da man!
I love Chicago music very very much. Now I seen this guy from Russia these guys are awesome.
you folks ae not new to me, spent hours watching your video's...My wife had liver cancer and she passed away on Nov.25, 2018. The hardest pain and loss i have ever felt;
tonight is the FIRST time I have felt happiness .......thank you for posting your video's
Just a great cover that not only pays homage, but they give their own sweet harmony to.
Wow!! These guys have recreated Chicago perfectly!!! I'm just blown away!
I cant stop watching all of Leonid and Friends videos showcasing all the greatest hits of Chicago and others! They are the best Masters of sound and music!
I grew up with Chicago, I remember in the late 70's driving down Alki Beach in my 1963 Chevy SS and have Saturday In The Park blasting away! Leonid and all his friends are beyond being talented, They are truly the greatest cover band in the 21st Century!
I was a radio DJ back in the 1960's. Working my way through college. I stayed in radio over 50 years part time.
Chicago was one of my favorites. Damn! You guys are so talented. May God bless you.
Listening to this song for Serge and the Ukrainian people and hope the power of music makes them “Stronger every day.”
Chicago should be thrilled that these guys are bringing this amazing music to the world, so good that my hip-hop loving son is blown away
Problem with that is, they are not bying Chicago's records, they're buying Leonid and Friends' records.
The cut these songs with Chicago's blessings.
I'll bet I've listened/watched Chicago's video of this 30 times in the last week. You guys killed it. I'm beyond words.
I just discovered this group. They are better than the original. I wasn't that big on Chicago when they were on but today, at 72, I love this.
There is Igor, in his headphones, drumming perfectly. As always.
I listen to this and other of thier music ♥️♥️♥️ it does make my day 🌺🥰🌹 May you all be safe !
Who says there isn’t hope for humankind? First, we land on the moon, then we summit Mt. Everest and now this MIRACLE! Perfection!
My favorite Leonid singer. Don't lose this guy!!!
If Chicago never existed, and these guys made their songs, instead, I'd be okay with that.
I am a child of the '60's so I do not say this lightly; you guys could tour as Chicago. Great job.
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!! You guys and gal got it going on !!!
Man…this song is such a BANGER! Everyone needs this on their get psyched for the weekend mix!
As a Chicagoan that is a life long Chicago fan , I congratulate you , what a great performance .
This is the greatest cover of any song I’ve ever heard
Such. A. GREAT! Cover. Fantastic job!!!
this is a tribute to one of the greatest bands on the world, by one of the greatest bands in the world. it will be my absolute humble pleasure when i see you live this October in the states. thank you so much for coming back to America!!
Я открыл для себя L&F несколько дней назад, и увидеть их вживую - моё самое большое желание. Но я не нашёл их выступлений в российской афише. Привет из Москвы.
