Dear Leonid, Alexey Sedov & Kir Popov! In the last two studio recordings, the images of the videos are a little veiled! Are new lights or cameras installed/used? I'm waiting for your answer! Thnks!
Roman… I found the “Easter Egg” that was placed in this video at 3:50. Violinist in tan blazer has headphones at all times except for the two to three seconds at 3:50ish. I am speculating this was done on purpose to see if any viewers are focusing on the strings instead of the band. Though Anna has caught the attention of some, this talented lady will definitely have some of the male audience members flying west, east, north and south… at least in our dreams. Where do we send her our money? LOL.
As someone once famously stated.....MORE COWBELL!!
Hope you will visit us in Canada sometime soon!
I swear they try to find the most complex songs and arrangements and then make them even better. The talent is always off the charts
They really do nail it
agree
Adding strings make the sound so original and realistic - just like the original studio version at Thunder Sound in Toronto. I was hanging around there when it was being recorded. Such excitement!
Another thing great is the electronics and much better recording.
AGREED 100 PERCENT
Fantastic. Makes me happy listening to your music.
I love that drummer!!!
I have watched well over 100 hours of thier music. Everyone is Absolutely Amazing!!!! But the Drummer??? DAMN... He NEVER misses a beat. Unbelievable ❤😮😊😊
Igor is a machine. He's The Machine!
I thought the same thing about the bass player.
@@brucenelson3502 - It's the combo of the drums/bass that gives the rest of the instruments the room to roam over top. They are masterful at it.
Outstanding
Might be the best cover of any song I've ever heard.
They have just a tight fiesty kick ass drummer for damn sure!
This is by far Vasily's best performance. This song really fits so well with his vocal strengths. I enjoy the power he puts out.
Russian version of Bob McBride!
Wow! That was a fine performance by Vasily and the musicians. The power was fantastic!
Excellent drumming Igor!
Bob would be smiling now
He is really an amazing singer.
I believe this is the greatest gathering of musicians Ive witnessed in my lifetime so far ! I'm 74 🙏👍🤩
I agree 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥✨✨✨✨
Hope you get a chance to go see them in person!
@Vetriot6971
I concur. 72 in October.👍
I was fifteen when the One Fine Morning album came out; I remember going down to city hall in Toronto to hear them play. They gave me then what this band recreating the music do today; chills. The smiles on the players reflects itself in the music; this Canadian can't thank you enough. 😊
Igor is such a boss on the drums. What a performance by everyone...
I agree, he's great
World class pro. They all are.
Listen to the kick drum....at that tempo, simply amazing.
amen... truth
I marvel at his playing every time I see them.
They are the best they get down!!!
I saw them in Cincinnati a couple months ago and they played this. I wondered if they could reproduce this sound on stage, without the string players. Yes. Yes they can! It was fantastic. I'm seeing them again in Carmel in September. Can't wait.
Come on over to Dayton, too, two days before Carmel!
It don’t get any better than this. Excellence
Bass player killed it !
I remember the summer of 1971 when Lighthouse released this song. You have recreated this song with such vocal and musical expertise it's nothing less than amazing! Thank you Leonid and Friends for all you do!
Whoa! That was one powerful performance! Vasily’s voice is the perfect match for this Lighthouse classic! Konstantin absolutely shredded the lead! Igor was a monster on the kit! And the band was tighter than a stretched rubber band! 👊🇨🇦
Spectacular in every way
Words fail to express the full excellence of this masterpiece.
Took the words right out of my mouth! Incredible performance! You could tell they were all completely in to it, and enjoying every note; especially the strings! They LOVED it! Haven’t seen all those smiles and sheer enjoyment from the strings before.
True👍everything is unbelievable 😂 each time I watch these musicians and singers I discover new things to love❤
Have been a fan of L & F since about 2017 and have watched and loved their work through the band's various configurations of members. While not surprising (it is Russia after all), I am continually gobsmacked by the world-class level of musicianship in Leonid's stable of players. They take a back seat to no-one anywhere on Earth. They not only bring total technical mastery but expressive, vibrant energy to everything they do. It has been a joy to watch them and see them go from success to success.
Great tribute to a great Canadian Band from TO!🇨🇦🇨🇦
That was so good to hear that again after so many years !!! ♬🇨🇦👍
@@donguiddodilozzo1906 awesome vibe! 🇨🇦🇨🇦
Yes, I remember this rockout hit from my earliest days in Canada. Living it all again with this tremendous recreation. 🇨🇦 😁
So nice to hear Vasily again on lead vocals, he has such a special warm rock voice. ☝
I think he sounds just as good o better than David Clayton Thomas back in his Blood, Sweat and Tears heyday.
He's like a turbocharged David Clayton-Thomas. And he can sustain a note!
He reminds me of Bruce Springsteen when he was young, except cooler.
Vasily is starting to look like he's regressing back to the '60's lol
@@haroldmorgan8718 ohh ... That would be a nice idea for his next lead vocals.
Good lord, the orchestra! the choir! the works! Mind blowing
My thoughts exactly!
Yessss!!!
Wow!! I got tired just watching Igor playing drums. There is so much talent in every player and singer. Amazing!!
Over 50 years ago, this was one of my favourite songs and it still is today!
Fabulous cover.I have been a monster fan of this song for 50 years and this is as exciting and energetic as the original.The lead singer sings a great Bob McBride and the horns,strings and lead guitar are dead on. Bravo
Lighthouse's saxophonist, Howard Shore, became the music director for Saturday Night Live and later began a career in film composition, becoming one of Hollywood's most sought after composers. Shore won three Academy Awards for The Lord of the Rings film trilogy.
“One Fine Morning” [1971] was written by Skip Prokop. On the pressing above his surname was incorrectly spelled Propkop. The song is about waking to a realization that the love that is shared between two lovers “is finally right.” They know that they love each other and the universe is smiling on them. As long as they love each other they can truly live their dreams. He promises to buy her “candles made of stardust, and little dolls dressed up in moonbeams.” They can travel anywhere and make the whole planet their own. And when he’s apart from her, he’ll see her face, her smile, and hear her voice. The song is an anthem to what love shared between two people can do as it opens doors to higher levels of existence."
Horn section is out of this world. Tone, precision, huge range, and tight. One of the best I’ve ever seen and heard.
The saxophonist is WILD in person!! He jumps around all over the stage, very goofy and fun! He even came off the stage, down into the audience at one point!
@@rebeccav9969too goofy, and is a distraction ... But excellent player.
@@TheoSmith249
I didn't find it distracting at all, but everyone is different.
Yes!!
Thought the sax player was out of control drawing attention to himself instead of the or person that was needing the attention. He just needs to stay in his lane and he can be as weird as he wants!
as a canadian and i lighthouse devote , i am so pround that these russian musicians have recorde such a beautiful rendition of this wonderful song, merci beau coup to you all , julie from toronto
Excellent! Amazing! I still have Lighthouse's original vinyl record... I'm 68... Now this IS music!
Saw L & F perform this tune in Los Angeles last night. Words just can’t express how wonderfully talented this group of musicians is!!! And their enthusiasm and spirit adds to the joy of seeing them live!!! BRAVO!
Seeing them June 1! Can't wait!!!
I feel so fortunate to have learned about this band of exceptionally talented musicians/artists. It makes my soul happy to listen to them and see their joy when they perform. Maybe one day all people will realize that we are all part of the same existence and that we are meant to enjoy the wonder of everything and stop the insanity of hate, war and division.
The moment I saw the song title, I knew that this would be Vasily on vocals and he absolutely OWNED it! Bravo!
Vasily has such a strong masculine voice. This song is his best work !
This brought tears to my eyes! Feel like I'm fifteen again and watching Lighthouse live on a summer's night at Ontario Place. thank you for this treasure!
This it totally insane! I cannot get enough of Leonid & Friends! They brought back a great song from the 70's! They all look so happy playing this song! I absolutely love it!!!
“They all look so happy.” My thought exactly! 🇺🇸
More COWBELL!!
@@ronleight9341more cowbell when they cover Chicago "I'm A Man"! 😂😂
Nice hearing Vasily as the lead. Great voice and super, as usual for the whole group. You guys are the best!
I still have the Lighthouse Live album after all these years and this is one of my favorite songs. Fantastically performed!
It is uncanny how this group does the precise same version of any song no who the original artist was and this no exception. This one of my favorites from 1971 along with all the EWF Chicago BST and yes even Lighthouse and Ides of March. Thanks so much for your great talent
The STAR of this production is the entire sound . Leonid , composed this and I think it is his genius that put mics in front of every singer, instrument, orchestration, percussions , all blended to make an amazing blend of and depth of sound the songs really have. Even without changing hardly a note, the songs are richer and fuller than the originals.
A Tribute to the artists and Tribute to MUSIC.
Leonid and Friends have done a very fine cover of this song. But your suggestion that Leonid composed it is slander. It was composed by the late, great Skip Prokop and recorded by the Canadian rock/stageband group Lighthouse in 1971.
@@marshduncanson4150 A better word would be "arranged", so your point is valid. However, the gist of the OP's post is Leonid's skill not only in the arrangement, but in mixing the total sound. He's unsurpassed in that department, IMHO.
Agree fully, except for the comment that Leonid did not compose this piece, but he certainly arranged it. I don't know the original instrumentation as done by Lighthouse in 1971 other than the rhythm section, horn section and strings, but I find the mixing and overall effect to be superb. Clearly the result of great ears and much better technology than in 1971. The bass voice not only in the bass guitar but in the bari sax and trombone really provides the power in the overall sound. Drumming provides the style and Vasily's voice along with the backup vocals is the icing on the cake. Exceptional performance!
Best version of the song, with best voice and superb musicians
I continue to be wow'd by these guys!
Give that string section some love. ❤
I'd love to give a couple of those ladies from the string section some love! Pretty AND talented!
I'm wiping tears from my eyes listening to you guys play this tune - I've been waiting for Vasily Akimov to sing this number for a long time - Fantastic - I Love You Guys
Omg, me too.
So was I !! I knew they would pull it off perfectly
Just saw the magnificent cover of 'My Old School' and now this fabulous piece. I had to subscribe. Chicago and Steely Dan would be proud. Very proud. Masterful to be sure.
I was a freshman in college when this came out. Must have listened to it hundreds of times since then. Their performance absolutely rocks. I’m blown away!
I knew if I waited patiently, ate all my vegetables, and clean my room eventually you would get around to this song. You couldn't not do it. I am so grateful that I don't remember the vegetables and I gained much space in my room. And I no longer need glasses although my teeth are a little bigger up front. Now, how about something with a Latin flair? "Suavacito" by Malo. THANK YOU!!
Perfect choice!!!
.... what?
😂
A nice mellow song by Malo. I have the song on a 45rpm record.
Effin’ insane!!! I would have figured they’d have done this one long ago. Such a natural fit. Unbelievable!!!! Every part pounds with intensity…drums, guitars, piano, VOCALS, horns, strings…every single bit THROBS!!! GREAT WORK!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Fantastic drummer, great musicians, no need to say anything else.
The more I listen to this, the more I like it. I think it's Vasily Akimov's best vocal for you guys and I look forward to seeing you in Durham this week.
Always loved that tune....it's the horns man it's the horns....
I agree. Nothing better than a great horn section.
Great tune from a Canadian band. Well done!
Closed my eyes playing this; went back to 71 and bell-bottoms, long hair, blue tinted granny glasses, platform shoes, and paisley shirt. One Fine Morning would come on the radio, and I’d redline the tach with each shift up through the gears of a 67 Chevelle. The girl, the car, the song . . . we’d fly . . . Thanks Leonid and Friends . . . flew again tonight in memories.
Wow! I have not heard this song since our college rock band played it back in the early 70’s! Great job covering it!
Im listening to this again!
Everyone is going like a bat out of hell, but Igor is really in overdrive.
Sounds amazing Lighthouse one of my favorite bands. Please come to Canada we have been waiting for you guys for several years now. Please🥰
To anyone who LOVES this song, it is being performed LIVE THIS TOUR. So get your tickets!
cant wait to see them in a few weeks in Durham NC!!!
Front Row and Meet & Greet in KC this September.
This Wednesday in Chucktown! Saw them last year, very impressive, one of the best concerts I've seen (top 5 out of a LOT)
Very cool! Great job! Amazing musicians! I miss my dad so much! Thank you for this fab rendition of the song and tribute to my dad! 😢❤ RIP Bob McBride
I did not know this song or Lighthouse, but your father must be grinning from on high.
Loved your father's voice and I even have one of his solo albums. From an old Canadian!
I am so sorry for your loss. Your dad was a great singer! I remember when this song first came out and, as a trumpet player, I immediately loved it! I have been hoping for a while that Leonid & Friends would cover One Fine Morning, and I'm so glad they did, and that you got a chance to hear it! What a great tribute! I'm sure many young people will be introduced to Lighthouse for the first time. The music lives on! God bless you! ❤
That's odd. Google/Wiki says Bob McBride only had a son. Wonder why?
@@dougrogers835 You made me curious, so I looked at an obituary to confirm that he only had a son, Shawn. Interestingly I saw another person claiming to be his daughter but her name is Lara.
I keep coming back to listen to this again! The band is terrific and Vasily's voice is just phenomenal!
I have to listen to it two or three times a day, every day, to get my fix. Damn, what a rendition! They are great!
Have mercy! That is fine! Also, Igor is such a good drummer!
Leonid & Friends take us for another ride in the Wayback Machine!
Havent heard this song in years, and love, love it!❤❤
I’m speechless. I don’t know who blows it away more. Holy cow. Damn. Bravo 👏👏👏👏👏
You guys have the 'Midas Touch'... This is another piece of pure gold... Thank You👍
All these years I imagined watching this song being played live and hearing every instrument. As always, Leonid and Friends killed it above and beyond. Excellent rendition!
Take it from me, from Toronto and knew Lighthouse well….that was bang on excellent.
same here, To guy myself & these guys absolutely killed it!
L&F continues to bat 1,000. Another superb job from the band. Bravo!
OMG..tears of Joy! Thank you for representing one of Toronto's finest gems. Lucky to have seen them many times. So about that Canadian tour, Please!!
If they get to Canada - This is their opening Set !
As a bass player for over 25 years, I cannot believe how great the drummer is.
I find his Jazz Bass to be nasally, even for a J bass.
Retired professional drummer from Los Angeles here, Igor is all meat, no veg, no starch, pure protein baby!!!
"911, what's your emergency?" "Ya, I'd like to report a murder." "Who was the victim sir??" "This SONG,!! Igor KILLED IT!!"....hahahaha
@@drew-shourd ... bbbwahaha .... totally agree
The more I listen to it the more I think it’s better than the original. It has more clarity maybe because of the time it was recorded that back in the day to present day technology, but this is crystal clear and so so good. The whole Ensamble measures with precision and accuracy. Every instrument is worthy. Yes, will fly
Sp proud of how well he is pronouncing his lyrics. We all forget he is singing in a foreign language. Crazy good.
You have reached a new pinnacle. Everything about this is incredible: the horns, the vocal, the piano, the guitar, drums, strings, of course Leonid on bass, the arrangement, the mixing, and what did I miss? Amazing! Please add this to the live show set list!
"what did I miss?" The sustained energy!
@@barryanderson3910 And the obvious enjoyment
It IS in the new tour’s set list, and having seen it multiple times now, I can say that like anything L&F does on stage, they do it perfectly, even without the added instrumentation of the studio recordings.
It was a high bar to reach but oh my oh my they just BLEW past it!
I really understand why Leonid always smiles.
I would too, if i played with all these wonderful musicians!
You're fantastic!
Keep it up!
...right? ...and if you check the credits Leonid does much of the production, along with editing, plus writing out the transcripts for each musician to read from, directing the video, producing it. In some earlier videos, he was playing piano and not bass, I am sure he is a multi-instrumentalist, he is amazing.
The original of this was outstanding. This is even better. I love this man's voice.
Been following these guys for a couple of years now. Their Chicago and EW&F are beautiful. But Lighthouse? What a pleasant surprise!
Wow. What an incredible cover. The horns, the strings, the vocals, even the production are all beautiful.
Never a dissapointment. Thank You guys for bringing back that sound. Todays drivel lacks charactor, fullness, and honesty. This is full, Rich, expressive and well done.
Well said and yes it is drivel that passes as music these days
Also lacks real classic musicianship. Sorry, there's no substitute for live horns and drums! Never heard this before, but it's fantastic!!🔥🔥
@@seanswinton6242 Check out the Band Chicago. Leonid has made quite an impression on them by Mastering covers of their work.
Most of “today’s” music is JUNK, to be a true musician, one must learn 1 or 2 instruments, this band TRULY IS AMAZING 😊😊😊, LOVE TO SEE THEM IN TEXAS
WOW! Unbelievable. Leonid is having a blast through the whole song.
I'm a Canadian & grew up listening to Lighthouse & these badass cats f*ckin' nailed it large! one of the best adrenaline songs ever....and the singer, WOW
You have made me go down the UA-cam rabbit hole by listening to all your videos. You guys a great. You are the next generation of Chicago so great your own new music based off the great rock of Terry Kath, the horns of the boys and the orchestrated sound that we are dieing for!!!!
The strings were so in to it! Have never seen them absolutely enjoying every note they played. They loved it! Such a great song!
Wow fantastic, I am from Canada and I was listening to Lighthouse the other day on the train and I thought about asking Leonid and Friends if they could do Lighthouse one day - and boom! there it is! Fantastic arrangement guys, love it, thanks! Can we have "Sunny Days" some days too?
I barely remember this old song. When I listened to the original, this cover blew it away. What an intense groove! Their covers of Steely Dan, Chicago, EW&F, are beyond perfection. I have a new favorite band!
And they sound exactly like this live 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Another song that digs deep into my memories. No one writes tunes like this anymore. Thank you for bringing this back into my life. Konstantin on lead guitar was on fire! People need to understand how hard this solo is at the end. He’s a rock star. ❤
So true. For the life of me, horn sections add so much. You’ve got to figure this sort of music style will cycle back around.
I haven't heard this song in ages! Really cool song.
OH
MY
GOD !
Hearing, and seeing this literally took my breath away.
Fantastic🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Wow! Haven’t heard this song in decades! He nails it on the vocals like the original! Well done everybody!
Vasily’s vocal is off the celestial charts!!
Let's just suggest Leonid is currently one of the best musical genius on the planet...transposing complicated music to sheets, by ear..also constantly assembling other brilliant musicians..and finally...laughing and smiling while totally owning a very difficult bass line. God smacked.
Дэн, абсолютли райт!!!
An amazing, faithful rendition of a song that is a BIG memory from my youth. The Lighthouse album "One Fine Morning" was my first album.
This is such a fantastic cover that I think Skip Prokop (R.I.P.) would have applauded. I'm sure his son Jamie would also, should he ever witness it.
Thank you for producing this bit of Canadiana and for all the fabulous songs of my youth that you perform.
Большое спасибо!
What a trumpet sound! That’s sick!
One of my absolute favorite songs growing up, so overlooked and seemingly forgotten. So glad you guys covered this song! Almost brought me to tears hearing you do it the first time! Thanks!
One of my favorite songs ever. And I am just running out of superlatives to just say how absolutely amazing all of you are.
I think Skip Prokop would approve. Spot on drumming, solos, horn lines and vocals. All I can say is if you delve further into Lighthouse, how about “Pretty Lady”!
I remember and love this song, and there's nobody better than L&F to cover it today. As proven by this video. Great choice! What a jam! 20 on a scale of 10!
Wen I heard LF the first time, my impression was OMG wat a great band.. then the Best.. now they're Excellent & incomparable..
Love seeing string players enjoy the rock music.
What a terrific surprise!
Leonid’s face at 0:21 says it all. It’s gotta be fun to make something so great.
Totally agree!
True musicians. The joy of playing great music with talented players trumps everything!
I noticed that too
I find it quite annoying that fake smile
@@archieluxury7959 I've played in various bands for 57 years. It's not often, but when everything is right; the group, the song, the mood, and the stars are aligned perfectly, it's a smile you can't keep off your face. I believe that's what his smile is about. I can't imagine the pride he must have leading this incredible group.
I love you guys.
I attended the Berklee School of Music and the New England Conservatory of music and appreciate the musicianship and skill of you all! I also appreciate your appreciation of American music of all genres.
Blessings!
Well, this song is North American (from the Great White North).
Wow! Wow! Wow! Where was this gem hiding from me. Superb performance! I'm not going to lie, it made me choke up!
