    So startling to have those opening chords jump out, alive again nearly half a century after being seared in my brain. Magical! And to know Skip's DNA was embedded in this version makes it even more special. Thank you for making Pretty Lady live once more.

    I love the background vocals on this. Very faithful and true to the original. It is a great forgotten track in the U.S., no one ever plays it on the oldies channel. Great job all around. You need to give us more videos!!!!!!!!

    One of my all time favorite songs. Living outside of Detroit we were blessed with being able to listen to CKLW, the Big 8 out of Windsor. So many wonderful artists we heard first before the rest of the US. Plus the added bonus of CBC and Hockey Night in Canada.

    • @Davesneat
      @Davesneat 2 роки тому +1

      @@TheDavidbooth The thing is, there's no way any of the covers can be as good as the original, right? We love the originals and therefore we love the cover, But! The quality of the cover can be SO much better! So, it can be as fun or MORE fun than listening to the original. I think it's OK to feel that way without betraying your love for the original. But maybe that's just me. I've had to come to terms with my love for Leonid and friends. I'm a Chicago fanatic. And I'd have Terry Kath's babies. But the L&F covers are better quality recordings. And it's like getting to hear what Chicago would sound like if they were who they used to be but had the ability to record 40 years later. I love that they try SO hard to perfectly copy the original sound. Sergey (they lead guitar player) is just stupid prefect. All that said, you have every right to like the original better. I fully support that.
