Take away the present leaders of the world and we’d all get along! ❤️
"Hearing real music played by musicians this way just shows how we have become acclimatized by the clinical digital sounds of the latest 'pop' music. This is a reminder of how music can be arranged and sound.If you can remember the originals you can appreciate Leonid & friends even more, + everyone enjoying themselves."😄
Andrey Zyl, the trumpet soloist, has won multiple international jazz-competitions; he's among the best of the very best.
Being and OLD drummer at 71, Igor is VERY good!! Played these songs with various people during the 70's and 80"s; GREAT SOUND!!
Leonid's son Roman is the one person that keeps this group touring and promoting he is amazing buiness force
Superb.....as everything L&F does...😀💥👌
They take great pride in note to note accuracy and it shows. The best cover band in the world.
A fantastic cover. Igor is a monster. And Andrey manages to replicate Lew Soloff's historic solo with brilliance. An awesome band
"It's like I'm hearing it for the first time" - yes! These tunes I grew up with - hearing Leonid and Friends - with their so totally energized take - it really, really is like hearing these great songs for the first time.
Two Dozen Russians and one big studio .... all invested in the culmination of their craft .... Smiles and joy ! GBjj
They create an infectious enjoyment of music...peace to you all.
First time all over again. That’s it. Solid sound. Crank this through a decent system and you’re scraping heaven.
Agree with everything you've said. Have been watching this band for years....absolutely the best. As for the singer...Vasilii...it's amazing that he really does not know how to speak english. Thanks for the great reaction videos.
Don't stop 'til you've reacted to their whole catalog! I've never seen a group come together and be this good so quickly. And it wasn't planned to be anything permanent originally. Of course, that's been years ago already.
Woooow what an amazing cover! I first learned this song listening to my little brother's drum show practice CD around 2010 when he was attending primary school... Def brought me back 😄 I'm gonna check these guys out!
Thanks, Jeff. I've been enjoying L&F for years. They play the music with great respect and they certainly deserve ours!
Thank you Jeff for doing all the Leonid and Friends video reactions, I have been a fan of these guys since almost the beginning around 2015 and I love them so much as you do really get them and that is great to see and hear. Keep it up can't wait for the next one!!
So glad you've found L&F. I stumbled across 25 or 6 to 4 years ago and have been a fan since. Saw them in Nashville in 2019. My favorite is Street Player. EVERYTHING they do is top notch. And their music makes people smile...they take great joy in it and their joy is contagious.
Exactly! Those horns! Saw these folks in JVille FLA and it was the stuff! Saw BS&T back at Gusman in Miami in 1975. L&F killin it!
Just wait until you see them in person!
Vasily is a true rock and roll singer! They are my favorite cover/tribute band on UA-cam. I hope to catch them on their next US Tour on the West Coast.
Yep, ... Leonid had a lot of contacts during his professional years, and he had the best to pick from to recruit for his group.
Cant wait to see them in Music 🎶 City USA 🇺🇲 aka NASHVILLE! May 2nd at TPAC
Yes, play it loud!
Street Player is my favorite along with Beginnings which was the first of their videos I’d seen. I immediately went down the rabbit hole. I saw them in concert in July 2022 and met the band afterwards. Amazing experience!! Good God they’re all spectacular. I can’t wait until you watch the rest…it’s a joy to see! Looking forward to seeing you react to Vehicle…Vasily nails it!
Right on!!
I totally agree!!! They are SO incredibly goooood (and funny here😆😂😅) - all of them! Wauw - really enjoyed that! Thank you😃🤗.
😃😃😃👏👏👏🫶🫶🫶
Wow! Spectacular! Once again. Incredible! Couldn’t agree more, Igor on drums is absolutely insane.
The singer.. leonid, the horns, EVERYONE!!
Amazing!
Can’t wait to see more from them here!
P.S I REALLY hope you do their cover of Speck Of Dust . An unknown Russian song as far as I’m concerned, but they made it into English and it’s utterly amazing. And it’s with FULL orchestra + throat singer!
I enjoy your reactions almost as much as the songs! It is so nice to see someone reacting with such sincerity and enthusiasm - it's infectious!
Thank you so much!!
One of the many vocal super stars his cover of Vehicle smashes it
Never checked out reaction videos much, but when I saw you were "covering" Leonid & Friends, I couldn't resist. They are the best cover band ever. Your breakdowns help me understand better than ever just why I am hearing perfection and greatness! Outstanding work on your part and thank you!
Thank you so much! 😊
This band never disappoints ! ✌🏻😁
I think Vassily was a Russian The Voice winner. He’s amazing! And Leonid on that bass!!!!!❤
Igor is one of the most sought after studio drummers in Europe.
Love that you adore them, too! ❤
L&F is most of my walking playlist. Also the soundtrack of my highschool and college days. Keep ‘em coming.
Jeff, you're only saying it because it's true.
I was in boot camp, in the Navy, in Chicago, when these guys were big. I.ve always loved there music, as well as BS&T, EW&F< all that style of music, My parents introduced me to the "Big Band sound" when I was verry young.
Leoned and his friends, nail it, every time.
I was in Navy boot camp in 69 in San Diego and never heard of a boot camp in Chicago unless you mean Great Lakes boot camp.
I dont have telegram. My daughter has instagram, I not on any social media but facebook, Ray Lewis
I played this song as a young drummer in the late seventies and loved it. This brought back a lot of memories. I only stopped playing last year due to back and hip issues. This makes me want to put the kit back up.
Phenomenal drummer in this band, as you mentioned.
Check out Speck of Dust if you haven't already (searched your channel). A Leonid original. Orchestra and throat singing and my first experience hearing Ksenia Buzina. Awesome!
I remember when this song came out and LOVED B,S & T and i saw them live multiple times and i tell ya, THIS is the greatest cover ever
Oh my gosh!
Thanks for the review Jeff. incredible replication.
I haven’t seen if you have checked out “I’m a man” by Leonid yet. Still looking. Incredible as they all are.
Not yet
I would like to suggest that you look at their rendition of "A Brand New Love Affair" in which Leonid himself both sings and plays the piano, particularly in the first half of the performance. Spectacular in a word. So much talent in this group. Ksenia plays piano also, at a very high level of achievement. I know how much of a fan you are of Leonid himself. You will not be disappointed.
Yup -- every bit I've heard of these folks, Live Included(!), is absolutely top flight. Almost dunno how they do it ? ! ? Glad you approve.
Nailin it Jeff .
BST = All Timer Territory .
These Cats really do it justice .
Jeff, as fellow musicians, you and i have become fans! Now ya gotta get to one of their shows and meet these wonderful artists when they come near your town! It's an experience! ~Nak~
You know it!!! 😃👏👏👏
just discovered these guys like 2 days ago and then saw that they came to my neck of the woods back Oct 2023. Oh man, wish I'd known about them then....just can't get enough of Steely Dan "My Old School" or Carpenters "Superstar" - they so totally nail those songs
Super Freaks!!! I just dont get how accurate and clean this is. Bravo
Hey man.
Just recently discovered your channel.
Thank you.
The joy that is evident in the band is simply an added delight to their incredible talent.
Welcome aboard!
What a great Friday eve surprise! I really look forward to these Leonid and Friends reviews that you do Jeff. Especially cool tonight was watching you listening to Vasily, the lead singer this time around. He’s so amazing! As is the entire band.
Tune in tomorrow for a live premiere of a Chicago tune! 9am PST!
Will do! 👍
Jon Farnham (Australia) Help Beatles cover Melbourne symphony orchestra live performance . Also ‘your the voice’ same concert.
They are the best! ❤
In the past I spent the winter by the fireside, next to the chimney; now it's in front of your channel! :-)
Hahaha love that! 👏👏👏🫶🔥
Lol. Almost original territory. Love these guys
So clean
Nicely done
David Clayton Thomas would say. WOW👍
Almost David Clayton Thomas and with a Russian accent.
Javad (Igor) is a great technician. I follow him on Facebook and he often posts exercises and lessons. He does some very complex patterns that require extensive 'woodshedding' to perfect.
Agreed.
Sad you are the only reaction channel that covers this amazing group
The other reaction channels don’t have taste 😂 jk
If you like this you will LOVE "Vehicle" by them I also like Streetplayer actually all of them are good :)
Both are coming soon!
Love your analysis of L&F. Check out their cover of "Burn" by Deep Purple. These guys just simply cook!
I think this singer could have a whole career around performing Tom Jones covers...
You are by far the best at what you do, especially with Leonid & Friends. Please hurry, can't wait for more.
Thank you so much my friend! 😊😊😊🫶
The band is terrific, of course.
But there is only one David Clayton Thomas.
He’s a legend to be sure!
@@StrateleStudios
I still have their second album, Blood Sweat and Tears, which I purchased in 1969. It's still clean, too!
He's the only Ukrainian citizen in the band. The rest are all Russian. He didn't get to travel when the Pugs🐽 invaded the Ukraine since all men 18-60 had to stay within the country. But he's gotten a waiver for work plus he's spreading music and LOVE ❤
I actually think this vocalist is better than David Clayton Thomas the original singer with BS&T.
Are you kidding me ?
This just isn't supposed to happen. How much fun were they having ?
Immaculate cover, crystal clear. My “issue” is with Vasily, the accent takes a little bit away from the song. ( IMPO) there isn’t a honest way to knock, insult, disparage this group in anyway. If you didn’t know they were a cover band you’d never think they were.
Let me take exception to the Lead vocal characterization - He is in several lead vocals on their work .... he is a growl voice - gruff naturally ... David Clayton Thomas (Lead Vocal for BS&T ) had a great baritone / tenor voice and could get a grit at times but, was a wide range of vocal talent beyond this man herein. Just to give fair recognition for D.C. T. - not knocking anyone. jj
DCT does sing with grit in the original version of this song. Sounds like you are comparing this singers collective work with DCTs. My comments are strictly relating to this one video. I stand by my comments although you are free to agree or disagree.
Great American Art kept alive...by Russians
Do I’m a man
watch the video of them doing "vehicle," by the Ides of March....
you can tell when they sing the lyrics, that english is NOT their first language...
Ah but that’s ok…I can forgive that for what they are doing. Much love to them 🫶
Actually, at the time they recorded this, Vasiili spoke no English. He's learned quite a bit in the past few years.
