- "LaRCS" stands for "Live and Record Combined Stereo", which means that on the left side you can hear a live performance, while on the right side the video clip/studio version.
In this case you can enjoy "September" from the Earth Wind and Fire: on the right side the official music video clip, while on the left side a great live cover version from Leonid and Friends (2018, tempo adjusted).
I've been a TV producer/director for many years, actually since Chicago dropped its first album. To do this, to have the balls to do this, to perform a massive original hit by one of the greatest groups ever, and to match it against a film of a performance by the originals, and to not just pull it off on the nose, but to totally kill it, this is true brilliance. RIP Maurice, bless you Sergey, I hope you are well. Thank you Leonid for such vision and daring.
RIP Maurice! Fanflippintastic duet!🙏♥️💯✅
Miss Sergey
I've been trying to contact Sergey on Facebook, but no reply yet ! I too , hope he and his family are safe !!!🙏☝️🙏❤️🙏☝️🙏👍
And to do it in a language that’s not native to him. Outstanding
Blows my mind!
拍手喝采！EWFのVIDEOとのシンクロがすばらしい！
I can't get enough of this band. They are out of this world and every song is a masterpiece!
They might be the best live of all time MAYBE?
They are impressive!!
Preach!
It`s the best copy. that I have ever heard.
Nu pas ontdekt fantastisch
One of the Best cover bands in the world!
no, the best!!!! such artistry!!!!!
Not just a cover band......true artistry
I wish Maurice White were alive to hear what an incredible job Leonid and Friends did with this song. No doubt he is smiling from above.
Definitely.
awesome band formed from Russia been told every song I hear awesome singers and musicians...awesome great job.
thanks from australia
From Russia with love !!!!!! Super fantastic group
For someone that has grown up with that 70’s and 80’s music … I can deeply say that you are not only musicians but magicians!!! Your music is magically perfect !!!
Geez! I couldn’t tell if it was Earth, Wind, and Fire singing and playing or Leonid and Friends singing and playing. Exactly like EWF, amazing!
The best cover band in the world and in history.
History of music probably goes back 200,000 years. Bone flute was found in a cave
Can't say enough thanks---fan from Taiwan!
You can’t even tell the two apart! That’s how good Leonid and Friend’s is! CRAZY!
Legends are legends for a reason. Because they brought something above and beyond what everyone was doing. I can't think of any artists from the last 20 years who will ever reach the legend status that Earth Wind and Fire reached.
If you're going to cover the works of legends you'd better bring it. And boy did they bring it.
These covers by Leonid & Friends are joyous celebrations. I love them,
Oh, absolutely.
They've brought me joy that I didn't think was still in me. Restored my faith in humanity. Thank you Glen(Dad)🙂
I miss you
I couldn’t agree more with everyone here.
A celebration is exactly what this is.
Leonid & Friends have done the impossible. I became an instant fan well done.
Nicely Done editing..Watching From The Philippines..💙 Love SEPTEMBER..
Anyone who did not like this is not a true Earth Wind and Fire fan. Music and vocals were spot on and well done.
I hope this sensless mess in Ukraine is over soon and we can get back to peaceful ways and great bands like this. GOD bless you all.
I thought I was dreaming 🤔amazing band and vocals ❤❤❤❤
A PHENOM group and can't get enough of them. The video is perfect spotlighting Maurice White!
Ironically enough, a few years ago we had the pleasure of seeing Chicago and Earth Wind and Fire in concert. To this day, one of the best concerts EVER.
This cover is absolutely awesome.
Both bands were brilliant. Chicago were a great jazz/rock band with very talented musicians. Terry Kath was a great guitarist. Blood Sweat. A d Tears were just as good.
Ksenia Buzina, one of the most beautiful singers of the world - such a beauty and class!
Hard to argue with you on this
@@megavideomarketing she is my girlfriend....shhhhh. she doesn't know it yet
I'm not sure if you expected Leonid and Friends to bungle this, but this is spot on. Every note, every word, every bit of passion is right on the money.
One more time !! I am speechless ! I have this song on 45, & I still own to this day. it was an irresistible winner, impossible to not sing along, with hips & hands moving ! Again, my highest commendation to all ! ----------MJL, 76 y/o
Someone below nailed it. They are out of this world!
This band is a total shock for many musicians including me. I don’t know how to grade their skills. To call them great...fantastic....? It doesn’t do justice to their talent! ALL OF THEM are like the cells of a well trained body creating something that many of us didn’t know it was even existed!
Most, if not all, have degrees from prestigious Russian music schools and conservatories so not surprising.
Imagine doing that without really being able to speak English and working it all out by ear.....I saw them open at the village and was really surprised after the show when they did the meet and greet and I realize how heavily accented their English was, it’s probably improved a lot since...but damn....
@@topangus123 I read somewhere Ksenia speaks 7 languages fluently. I thought I was good at two.
@@kgfht5120 Another seven reasons to love her!
@@kgfht5120
I manage three fluently (Dutch, English, German) and a fourth (French) passable. But then I only managed a BSc in Engineering. Ksenia - besides being an achieved singer and virtuoso piano player - has a Masters in Economics to boot. That young woman can write her own future.
I just went to one of their concerts in Florida yesterday night and they were so amazing! They sound just like their recording. They sure blew me away! I love them!I can't wait to see them again. There are no words that could describe their brilliant performance!
Tickets for the show in "September" - very fitting. Love to see them do some Chase charts
Una obra maestra soy cubano en mi país se oía siempre tengo 60 años y cuando era joven bailaba con ellos
When was this concert
Incredible… fantastic… amazing… what a gift to all of us. Thank you so very very much!
September one of the best dance and rhythmic songs in history, Earth Wind and Fire its great creators and Leonid and friends unbeatable with this version, a wealth of good musicians, who love the music of great groups in history.
Leonid, the mixing is superb. The band sounds better than the original and I'm a huge fan of Chicago. I bet they are really proud or Leonid & Friends. Thanks for keeping Chicago's music alive.
We are truly becoming a global nation, despite the wars and conflicts. We are heading back to the future where the planet was a global society. There is power in numbers so I all for it. These guys are AMAZING!
Je reviens régulièrement vous écouter toujours avec autant de plaisir, bravo Leonid & Friends ! C'est vraiment digne d'EWF, sans réserve. J'adore les violons.
Leonid & Friends is a MUST SEE band!!! They're a Chicago tribute band from Russia, who also recorded & performed this EW&F song to perfection!
YEAH and theyre REALLY gooooodd
@@muzakkasyariy I'm so excited! I'm going to see them perform in Atlanta on Thursday, September 23, 2021 at 8:00 PM at the Center Stage! I can't wait!!
@@bettymckinley8063 I had the pleasure of seeing them in Ft Worth...it was one of the best shows I have seen in a long time! Well worth the price of admission!!!
Saw them in Michigan this past October. They surpassed my expectations! They were awesome! Not to mention very nice people. I met a few after the show.
Ukraine.
The very BEST September cover and most of Chicago great songs....yes they are very gifted and talented musicians.
She is absolutely gorgeous
She is also a trained world-class vocalist, with talent and beauty.
You can see the Joy in their faces!! Absolutely perfection!!
Where did these people come from! What talented individuals. This song sounds better than the original, perfect replication of the 70s sound. Brilliant, just brilliant!
Moscow Russia
On a scale of 1 - 10 they are, like, a 50.
@@davemason9542 tries again therefrom Ukraine!!!
Combo of Russian and Ukrainian. Touring the Mid west today.
Great rendition but NO, not better than the original. Sorry.
Brings me to tears. Love love live on . I can't sleep at night music keeps playing in my mind,when I'm in kitchen, when driving, bought their cd waiting for it.
I saw EWF at a concert back in the 70s. Grand funk opened for them. Brings back so many great memories
Excelentes!!! Besos de Chile 🇨🇱
Po prostu nie wierzę własnym uszom i oczom. Gracie genialnie i z takim zaangażowaniem że widać jak muzyka w was żyje. Coś wspaniałego. Wszyscy jesteście wspaniali doskonałe aranże - muzyka - śpiew. Czy jesteście lepsi od oryginału??? Jesteście was lepiej się ogląda to wspaniałe. Wielkie dzięki i pozdrowienia.
Thank you for the great memories Kylie. I loved Earth, wind, and for back in the day..I believe that was back in the mid 70's my friends and I played music from E,W& F PLUS CHICAGO. I PLAYED BASS AND dang some lead.
This performance just doubles the joy of possibly the most incredibly upbeat, infectious song ever.
FAN-TAS-TIC! There's no other word for this band and their cover versions.
The bass line is exact 100% between 2 videos, feeling like there is only 1 bass. Perfect working!
Pure JOY - from Russia with LOVE!
(Ksenia ❤️)
THANKS TO THESE INCREDIBLE MUSICIANS & SINGERS -------------THE 70'S LIVE -------ON, & ON, & ON, FOREVER & EVER. WHAT AN INCREDIBLE DECADE IT WAS , YA JUST HAD TO BE THERE. ---------------------MJL, 77 Y/O
What a gift to the world this group is!
Bravo! Very beautiful song.
Wow! To see these side by side really illustrates how well Leonid transcribed the music and how masterful they performed and recreated an icon sound. Gives me goosebumps!
This music puts a smile on face for hours. I loved this back in college and love it even more now. Like I never heard it before. Pure happiness.
KESENIA ! ! !
It reminds me of college as well, only these "guys" are even better
Sometimes it's a good thing when history is repeated. Great video!
when ppl get up n are dancin' around....it's a great song, no matter who's playing' it!!
Incredibile 😂 congratulazioni
It's mind boggling to me how much talent must be involved for so much beautifully flawless and original music content to be constantly.
Desde que descubrí esta agrupación , he quedado fascinado con la calidad de sus interpretaciones , gracias Leonid & friends!!!!!
The strings are having SO much fun! Fantastic! 👏👏👏👏
Wow... that's so cool....
That was OUTSTANDING!!!!!! I am smiling from ear to ear and I still feel like dancing. WOW!!!! Just WOW!!! So we’ll done!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
That was incredible to hear them together. Shows what a great job Leonid did in arranging and how well it was carried out. Of course, it also shows how great the original was.
It really all so beautiful seeing those Russian violinist ladies having the time of their lives smiling and enjoying while playing their favorite instruments!!!! B E A U T I F U L!!!!
Yes Victor , & Kesenia ! !
I love "Old School" big bands sounds - trumpet, trombone, Sax all the string instruments. No one is doing this type of music anymore. Totally incredible...keepem coming!!! THANK YOU!!!
Yeah, they got the juice. They totally pulled it off. What’s entertaining for me is to see Leonid et al doing a masterful job even as we see can see the areas of growth needed to be fully realized as a talent to be recond with. As compared to EW&F, a musical giant of a group. If where they are now is the height they desire, then they are there, hands down. If, on the other hand, they aspire to greater heights of talent and recognition and “fame”, I have no doubt they will get there. THEY GOT THE JUICE.
fabulous!!!!
love this video...great job
This shows how true Leonid & friends are to the original. This was really cool to listening to. Groovy baby 😎🤘
Awesome music this is a great song they do awesome job
You guys are making a lot.greatness one song after another, istill cant believe my ears every time you play,WOW!!!!!!!
Good cover band. Earth, Wind and Fire wrote so many great hits. It's nice to see that others recognize that and are trying to keep them alive.
Leonid and Friends ended their Clearwater, Florida concert with this song a few years ago and it was great then. This compilation with the insert of the original by EW and F is over the top, what a wonderful assemblage of fine musicians and performers all excellent in what they do. Compliments to all of you who took part in this production!!!
I wish they’d come to California!!!
Touring the Midwest now
Just amazing the precision of Leonid and friends!.... Just great!
Uncanny. You've caught the spirit, the drive, the joy of ELO. What a joy!
That was excellently put together.. Very tight, im glad someone thought of doing this.. It just shows how good Leonid and friends are.. Love them both equally!! ❤️❤️🤩🤩👍👍
Wow I am thrown back by this band. They did a masterful job with that song. Excellent.
Great song, great bands. Copy exactly and great quality. Thanks Leinid and friends for being on top of remining us the outstanding music from EWF..... AND ALSO UNITING THE WORLD.
I met my wife in September of 1978 when this song came out. These people do the song better than the original. And Ksenona could melt an ice cube by just being in the same room, wow!! Make an ole man wish for younger day's.
What an amazing band ,amazing musicians,I wish they would tour Australia ❤😊
I wish they would come to London.
Una gran felicitación para todos por su excelente trabajo y que nos sigan deleitando de la buena música ❤
genios!!! todo lo hacen recontra bién!!!! ya soy fan de ustedes!!! bravo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
To have Ksenia Buzina as backing vocal is a bit like to have Lionel Messi on the substitutes bench. But L. Messi wouldn´t have that much fun like she has.
Thanks for sharing Kylie.
Wonderful to see Maurice White again. Great tribute with the split screen video. Leonid, once again your band is flawless...
Stupendi!!!
Riuscite a renderle ancora più belle e armoniose delle originali...più i video in presa diretta rendono le canzoni incredibilmente uniche tanto da ascoltare solo le vostre cover... Unici!!👍👋
EWF has been my FAVORITE group for 45 years. I am very impressed with Leonid and Friend's cover. Great job!!!
Absolutely fantastic!
Wow, I have to say that you all so very impressive. I thank GOD that I can listen to you all singing so beautifully.
Leonid & Friends are outstanding musicians and fantastic performers! The joy and enthusiasm in their performances is electric. As a retired music teacher, I used EW&F's September with my students to demonstrate how professional groups would push tempo as a tune progressed. In the original recording, EW&F picked up the tempo by almost 12 beats a minute from beginning to end. Leonid & friends didn't quite do that, but still managed a 6-8 beat push. I always wondered if it was planned or was an important nuance of the recording they loved.
I love it!
This band is freaking! fantastic!
Kesinia ! ! !
Maurice, I think they honored your music to the MAX!!!!!! What a show that could have been if both these groups could have played together. I would have paid BIG BUCKS to see.
Simply an amazing tribute supergroup. Cover band just doesn't describe their talent.
Yeah, it really is a reproduction of studio recording done live and thats not easy just ask any muso. André
"Tribute Supergroup" what an apt description - much better than 'cover band'.
I know it hurts (me at least) but sometimes a band can actually improve on the original. Old memories can make you think it was better than it was. This band’s/ensemble’s versions are incredible.
I really want to see these guys live. What a talented group of people.
I absolutely agree. They are currently touring the USA so check their website for details. I will see them in NYC in May
I don't think any other cover band on the planet can do the originals more justice, if not be better than the original.. L&F record digitally and you can hear more instruments and clearer sound as if in the studio with EW&F. Jaw-dropping!
I stumbled on this band after hearing 'if you leave me now' on a TV ad and searching for who sung it...I know now it was Chicago who were the original but I just can't keep coming back to Leonid and friends. So much positively and joy. Love you guys. You remind me a bit of playing for change, I always leave smiling and feeling uplifted. Thank you so much.
AMAZINGGGGG.....FROM ARGENTINA.....SALUDOS....!!!!
I had the pleasure to experience EW&F live at Grugahalle (Essen/Germany),
131 minutes of non-stop singing, playing and dancing - unforgettable!
And "September" furthermore is my favo(u)rite of their great songs
and your joyful cover brought me back to the seventies 🤟!
As someone who has sung in a tribute band, I can only dream that me and my mates could sound this authentic. This is what happens when a group of musicians truly care about their craft and want to get it right.
Almost too good! After all these years, I'm in love again!
You killed it, totally brilliant greetings from Australia 🇦🇺
