Their harmonies are bone melting brings tears to eyes👍
Everything about this is on point. Prayers for Serge and the people of Ukraine.
Chicago's music will never sound dated.
Incredible production, especially since the lead singer, Serge, has his piece recorded in Kiev while the rest is in Moscow. Brilliant!
Very good band they cover perfect any music 🎵
Best cover or tribute band ever!
Getting ready to see them for the second time.. Saw Chicago in 1976 and 1977.. What great homage!
The musicianship is top level. The performance is not simple mimicry but is homage at the same top level. The passion and energy are superb. This is brilliant AF.
Nobody does this better😭💗👍I hope n pray they're all in safe places🌹🌹🌹🌹
They create an EXPERIENCE‼️❤️😁🔥
I hope and pray that Serge will be able to someday again be with the group. This group would not be the same without his talent. 🙏
Just saw them on Nov. 18, 2023, in LA. Absolutely fantastic. Energy was off the charts. They sounded as good as Chicago did when they debuted more than 50 years ago. It's definitely worth seeing when they come to your town.
Leonid creates all the charts by ear.
been hooked on these guys for years now. so nice
Two nights ago I had the wonderful experience of seeing Leonid and Friends at House of Blues in New Orleans. Go see them! They are amazing!
My late brother told me about this group. They’re amazing with every song. Thinking of you, John
I am a huge Chicago fan I've never heard of these guys thank you for introducing me to him they're outstanding and I'm going to check in some more thanks Harri
And the drummer Igor I'm not sure how old he is but he is a machine man I'm like you I love these guys and I grew up outside Chicago
They are amazing, and Leonid transcribes all the music himself. Ksenya is incredibly smart and talented as well as beautiful! And give a LOT of credit to their video editors, excellent job!
“I’m A Man” better be next!
Kesnia is a concert pianist and speaks several different languages.
@@kens32052 - and has a degree in Economics I believe?
WOW! Spot on!
Beautiful!!!
These guys are so incredibly talented! I've followed them for awhile! Impressive ❤
Chicago left such a great legacy of music for people to enjoy, interpret and imitate.
They cover "September" by Earth, Wind, and Fire, and nail it!
Saw these guys in concert in LA. If you close your eyes you’d swear you were watching a Chicago concert. And the female singer is absolutely beautiful.
This song is a real inspirational song and has such a powerful building to a great loud jam and a perfect subdue to finish the song!
These guys are incredible. Following for a long time
Listen to all their songs 🎵 they are killer 😊
Top Notch; top notch, top notch.........have I mentioned that it's top notch?
Hi Harri! You're absolutely correct! ALL of Leonid's 'Covers' on TH-cam, especially 'Chicago's works' ARE SUPERB!!!!👋👋
[And YES! ....... using headphones are the "proof of the pudding"!!!!!!]
Wow they are super legit
I really dig your reactions to my favorite band, Leonid and Friends! They’re like “diamonds in my ears.”
I’ve been eagerly anticipating a chance to see LNF in concert. My friends; the wait is over! They’re playing a show at an historic theater near me next June. I turned all my friends on to Leonid and they all fell in love with the sound. Careful though. If you like one video, you’re likely to want to watch them all…
Chicago s probably my all time favorite group. Had their early albums. Yes this cover version is remarkable and sounds clearer in general. Probably due to the advanced technology and the very immense talent of these musicians. They all appear extremely gifted technically ( musically ) and professionally. Leonid has assembled a large group of amazing artists who do great justice to the also amazing group Chicago.😊👍🔥
MAKE MUSIC NOT WAR. Thank you Harri. this shows Ukrainians and Russians working together playing great music together. Great cover tune
They are all very talented
Oh the Chicago version these guys are spot on they're on point outstanding
Been sharing Leonid & Friends with my broadcaster friends since their very first TH-cam video. They arrived in the USA yesterday for their spring tour. I’ll be seeing them perform June 18 in Illinois. My third time! They are AWESOME!❤️
They are all brilliant talent. I have not seen them in concert yet.
This was our senior song in high school. Several of my classmates performed it well.
Had the privilege of experiencing L&F at the Carolina Theatre in Durham on May 12th. I was completely awestruck!
My favorite Chicago song
They have a few double songs that simply rock.
The entire instrumentation is almost literally note for note! Incredible!
You are the ONLY reactor responding to our beloved Leonid and Friends! Thankyou so much, dear Harri!!!!❤️ Everything they do is splendid.
Excellent cover.
Such an amazing and proper live version of a great sounding song, from Chicago! Super good cover band, spot on about everything!!!
I really like their cover of Beginnings. Also their cover of EWF - After The Love Is Gone.
Seen them 3 times in San Diego. Amazing! Pray for them in Ukraine!
I grew up with that band, these guys are amazing!!! While I am untrained, not picking up a discernible difference. Thank you!❤
These people rock! What a tremendous tribute!
Harri I’m 70 years old and I’ve seen Chicago live 8 times; including 4 times when the late great Terri Kath was still alive. Try as they did many times Chicago was never able to find a lead guitarist to equal Terry. Jimi Hendrix himself once said that Terry was a better guitarist than he was.
Well, do yourself a favor and listen to L&F’s lead guitarist play Chicago’s 25 or 6 to 4.
Sergey Kashirin is the reincarnation of Terry. It’s an incredible performance. Please give it a listen.
They tour in the US and are definitely worth seeing. Amazing and beautiful people. My heart goes out to the lead singer, Serge and his family who are in Ukraine right now.
Man the composition the orchestration flawless
Исполнение потрясающее , на мой взгляд даже < переплюнуть > Chicago !!!
My favorite Chicago song. They do a great job!
Wow, 98% spot on and that's an amazing achievement! And the female singer Ksenia Buzina is stunning! 🥰
This is coming from a huge Chicago fan: Great cover and probably the best Chicago cover I've ever heard, and I've heard some very good ones in my lifetime!!!
THIS Could NOT be better,not even in Los Angeles,where I saw a real Concert with the real Chicago.All of you,each one of you is blessed by TALENT.The Real Thing.Zdravje to you AND please CONTINUE ❤️🌷❤️🌷❤️🌷😍👏👏👏Nadja (again 😍🤓)From Mexico.
Finally someone reacts to Leonid & Friends! Yes as mentioned, check out there other covers. Especially Earth, Wind & Fire covers.
Keep going Harri! This band is extraordinary and it’s like Chicago did a quantum leap into the future using the modern technology
This band also do really cool versions of both Steely Dan and Earth Wind and Fire. Well worth a listen.
Man they make it look effortless and it looks like they're having a blast way to go guys keep it up please
Thanks Harri for reacting to this band I found them a month ago and fell in love 😊❤️
I've been following this group for a few years. While they're quite possibly better than the present-day version of Chicago, I wouldn't say they're better than the original.
Man I cannot believe I just missed them they were here in May in an intimate setting well it's very good size club right here in Birmingham Alabama but I didn't know about these guys until you turn me on to him today but thank you keep up the good work man love your actions
They do amazing Earth Wind & Fire covers also .
Can't believe you actually played this. Suggested them many times to other reaction channels. Discovered Leonid and Friends a couple of years ago...So talented...You should listen to their cover of Earth Wind and Fire
No disrespect to Chicago at all, they are and always will be one of my Top 10 faves, but this group 100% does it as well as the original.
The drummer is as smooth as silk. He’s fantastic!
Harri, I still strongly recommend Leonid and Friends cover of Blood, Sweat, and Tears Spinning Wheel. Different lead singer.
Their version of Chicago's Dialogue Parts 1 & 2 is amazing as well.
Agreed their version is tremendous
When Leonid first began creating the extensive ensemble of
musicians and singers to form Leonid & Friends, he was able
to find the most gifted people in all of Russia.......with the
exception of finding anyone able to emulate Peter Cetera's lead
vocals which are so vital in so many of the songs of Chicago.
Not one Russian was acceptable and then, luckily, he received a
vocal tape from Kyiv in Ukraine. That is when he realized that
Serge Tiagniryadno was the final piece of the puzzle. Also, not
enough is said about the lead guitarist, also named serge, who
is on par with the great Terry Kath's guitar playing. The drummer
Ivan is clearly world class and has been commended for his
excellence by the original Chicago drummer. What is amazing
concerns the fact that Leonid, a master of music in his own right,
needed to scour a complete country (Russia), as well as having to
delve into the neighboring country of Ukraine (for lead singer Serge),
whereas the actual group Chicago was able to come up with their
world class group of numerous musicians and three vocalists all from
'close by' neighborhoods strictly limited to the city of Chicago. Both
'Chicago' and 'Leonid & Friends' leave nothing left to be desired when
they are heard, for all are beyond exceptional, but let us not realize
the small pool of people Chicago had to draw talent from, which also
included masterful writers in the group, whereas as great as Leonid &
Friends are at presenting their covers, they are still covers with all the
original components being borrowed (emulated) from Chicago.
The baby-boomer generation lived in the best of all worlds in the 50's and 60's, when everything was Up, Up and Away before peaking and spiraling back down (indeed, crashing) from the 70's until today. They were given every opportunity to excel and many of them did just that. A group like Chicago could be found in every town. Yet, even Chicago can no longer find the qualified personnel to recreate themselves in present-day USA. The pendulum has swung.
@@JK_Clarke It's a sorry state of affairs that what you say is true.
Leonid and Friends absolutely do establish their street cred with this bang-on reproduction of Chicago's masterpiece. Still, I recommend hearing one of the original recordings, because even skilled pros like L&F cannot match the absolute tightness of Chicago, or the beautifully nuanced blues notes in the vocals. Their harmonies were so sweet, it made me shiver. A song comparable to classics through the ages.
i found that some time ago...i absolutely loved it...and i agree, it was fantastic and i thought better than Chicago lol...the band back in HS played this song during halftime...yeh...im old, that was like 75-76?
Hi Harri, Let's all please continue to pray for Serge and his Ukraine. - Brooklyn Mike
You have not heard the original, let me tell you it’s SPOT ON! These musicians are amazing!!
They did a great job!! Put please listen to the original!!
The singer could tour with Chicago.
Keep Serge in your prayers.
Leonid and Friends is a STELLAR group.
Ksenia is also beautiful.
Ok Hari... I know you like the percussion section in songs so, Try "I'm a Man" The original was by Spencer Davis group and covered by Chicago VERY well indeed! But these folks knock it out of the park! The drum solo is superb in every way! Trust me on this one. :)
That drummer is considered one of the greatest session drummers in the world! He’s a beast!
So glad you found them! They are just as amazing live!
I have been listening to Chicago for 30 years, when I first heard these guys I thought it was Chicago, sounds almost identical to the original recorded version
I hope you will also will react to their tribute to Chicago's 'Old Days' -
Hi Mr. Harri. I am usually not a fan of cover bands, but I like this.. ♠W.G.
They sound so American when singing, but heavy accent when interviewed😀
You need to react to their version of Steely Dan’s “My Old School!” It is in incredible, like everything else that they do.
Yes it's amazing 😍
This might be better then the Chicago version these guys tear it up
I think everything else is great, but not at all holding up to Terry Kath and Danny Seraphine
I’ll give you that but still a great cover to a great song
What's sad is that they cover an American band so beautifully... they're from Russia, and it just seems like music should be able to bring all the people of the world together. It hurts my heart that Russia and Ukraine are in that situation. Let music touch your soul. And share it with anyone and everyone and maybe the world can love each other.
I think the population, in general, doesn't want war it's the people running the country that does.
Pray for them,,, One of them lives in Ukraine (male lead singer on this one)..They are great and nice people..saw them live in 2019....spectacular!.
Amazing band to see live if you can check them out you won't regret it!
The Chicago version of this song has the BEACH BOYS as back up harmonies.
Thanks!
Thank you thank you thank you John 🙏🏿🙏🏿✌🏾🖤
Great review
Next try their version of 25 or 6 to 4, also big fan of their Dialogue Parts 1 & 2. To see there expansion into other groups, suggest, Vehicle (by The Ides of March), September (by Earth, Wind & Fire), and a killer cover of My Old School (by Steely Dan). Have seen Leonid and Friends twice in concert and they do not disappoint. Enjoy your trip through catalog. And by all means compare them to the Chicago versions.
Man ove yr reaction
I saw these guys on their U.S. tour about three years ago and they put on a great show.
Check their 25 or 6 till 4!
the guy used a wahwah pedal, disqualified!
Have that song requested for this month. Look for it. 😉👍🙃🔥🕊️
Nice!
Yeah,
I like this better then the original.
And the lyrics❤
I’ve been following these guys for a while. They are great. The challenge going forward for them will be separating the wonderful people of Russia, from Putin.
