    Surfing around UA-cam about 18 months ago for Chicago , the algorithim threw up 'Beginnings' by Leonid & Friends. A real 'knock your socks off' moment! Describing them as a cover band really doesn't cut it, they're all world class musicians in their own right, absolutely on top of their game.

  • @Trojanality

    No one else can do what these ultra talented musicians can. Never enjoyed covers of songs until Leonid & Friends. The fact that they can actually take a great song from the past and actually do it better than the original artists is beyond remarkable.

    Sergey Kashirin is the man. This was recorded about the time they began touring. Yes. The horns are great. They copy virtually every note and nuance from the original recording, so one must credit Kath, Loughnane, and Pankow for such tasty improvisation at such a young age (early 20s).

    This was one of their earlier releases and such a treat to hear. L & F has changed some of its members, all of whom are talented in their own right, but Sergey stands out with everything: guitar solos, lead and backing vocals -- impeccable. And it is entertaining to watch you, Jeff, in the thumbnail, as you react to each song. You really appreciate their musicianship because you recognize the talent.

    The final minute of this song was unbelievable. Every instrument was identifiable if you specifically listened for it. Whoever mixes, produces or puts all those sounds together is a genius. I can't believe that after listening to maybe 15 songs at least 50 times each over a few months that I'm still blown away the same way I was the very first time I listened to Leonid & Friends. They're incredible.

    Jeff, I love your reactions to L&F videos, especially the Chicago songs. It’s a credit to Leonid that he chose to do so many Chicago songs, as he obviously recognizes great talent, both in the songs he chooses to cover and in the musicians and singers he assembles. The brass does an exceptional job of duplicating the fantastic arrangements of Jimmy Pankow. And Igor killed it as he always does. Igor met Danny Seraphine and they have great admiration for each other. Looking forward to more of these reactions with your insightful analysis.

    Having been a big Chicago fan and played drums in a jazz rock band in high school in 1972, I have performed Beginnings dozens of times and listened to it hundreds more. This is perhaps better than the original and certainly better than the 8 times I heard Chicago perform it in concert. A special shoutout to Igor, who covered Danny Seraphine’s complex and challenging drum part with ease.

    I cannot wait to see these guys in October- Meet and Greet! Leonid and I actually have a lot in common, I'm going to thoroughly enjoy talking to him! We're both multi-instrumentalists/bassists, we've both played many of the same venues in SoCal (Coach House, Belly Up Tavern, a few more), and we've both played with Tris Imboden (Chicago's drummer) on drums. I do miss Sergey Kashirin being in this band, but Konstantin is finally settling into his groove. I know that Leonid's choices for personnel are solid, the band keeps getting even better (how THAT is possible, I don't know!)...and in Russia, they set the atomic clocks to Igor's drumming- he never misses! The whole band is incredible, one of my all-time favorites!

He IS the magic, but part of his magic is the exceptional talent that he recruits to interpret and take it to this level of perfection. By the way, you forgot Igor, their "Generator" on this one, and even though you're a "guitar guy" I take it, you do seem to appreciate (yeah, I saw you!) his talent and perhaps understand what a truly great Drummer he is!

    Sergey’s 12-string opening bars matches Terry Kath’s best playing of this song from CTA (Chicago I) double album.

    I am curious, from what pool of artists does Leonid find these musicians whom I consider 'the best of the best'!?

      Especially considering that the members are from Russia and former Soviet block countries that weren't exactly supportive of western influences. If Russia ever dug into Chicago's catalog that L&Fs recorded like "What's This World Coming To," I think they might have a problem with the content. So, I believe they are not only supremely talented but are brave.

      Original band was mostly Moscow studio musicians that Leonid had worked with over the years. He called them in to do a couple of the first recordings as a retirement gift to himself and before long, a link was posted on the Chicago website. Here we are several years later.

    I'm surprised you don't talk more about Sergey on the electric guitar throughout all the videos he plays on (sadly, he had left the band 😢). I could watch him play all day.

    From Chicago first record when they called themselves Chicago Transit Athority, the best Chicago record IMO

    It makes you wonder if Chicago actually recorded it together in the studio this way or if they recorded the parts separately.

    I HIGHLY RECOMMEND LISTENING TO 'CLOSE MY EYES' BY LEONID!

    If L&F recorded this first we’d be saying Chicago is a good cover band. That’s how good L&F is.
