That bass player too...he broke down the whole song into all the parts by ear.

OMG, that was a perfect version, identical to the original. The vocalist sounded just like Peter Cetera, it was amazing. You don't really need to hear the original, this band nailed every note!

Did you notice that as the credits closed at the end this was recorded in Moscow, Russia in 2020? The originator is the base guitar player and most of the artists are Russian citizens who speak little or no English. Starting off with nearly all “Chicago” classics from the late ‘60’s through the early ‘80’s they are now beginning their 3rd U.S. tour.

@TheDivayenta Жыл бұрын

Aren’t they fabulous! I saw them in concert last fall. The original group, Chicago, were huge for decades. This band here are Russian and Ukrainian! They have so much joy and connect with the audience so beautifully. They are a Chicago tribute band. They learned the songs by ear as they didn’t have sheet music in Russia for this. I’d recommend something livelier for a first pick- like 25 to 4. They also do Earth Wind and Fire- In the Stone. The lead singer, Serge, sounds like original Chicago lead and pop superstar, Peter Cetera.

Serge has left the band for now. He is from Ukraine and has bigger fish to fry. The new singers they brought in are amazing, too. The female, Ksenia Buzina speaks and sings in 6 languages, but the rest barely speak English. A little bit of trivia. The band Chicago liked them so much they had a link to them on their website and a couple of members actually played with them,

I stumbled upon these people two years ago and I was amazed how note-perfect they were in covering Chicago's songs, particularly this one which I've loved since I was 8 years old in the 70's. When they break into the epic horn section chorus, it gives me chicken skin. I'm happy you're listening and these dedicated musicians are noticed.

Sergey Kashirin, their original guitarist, is the first guitarist I have heard that really channels Terry Kath's spirit in the solo...all the inflections, the phrasing, the power and energy.

I don't know about the best. Joe Cocker did all covers, as did 3 Dog Night. Each was a master at doing covers. Actually Joe Cocker remade the originals into his own rather than copying the originals. 3 Dog Night's "Try A Little Tenderness" follows the original for the most part.

If you haven't heard the original then you should listen to more of Chicago. Personally, I prefer to listen to Leonid & Friends but you have to hand it to Chicago for creating these masterpieces. Leonid, the bass player, had to create all the sheet music for all the performers by listening to the original versions as no sheet music is available in Russia for these. I had the pleasure of seeing Leonid & Friends twice in 2019 when they were still touring the US with both Serge and Sergey who you see in this video (the lead singer and main guitar player).

I also got to meet the band after the show and all of them were so nice. The lead singer is in Ukraine right now and fortunately his wife and children were able to get out of the country right when the war started. Although they have a new guitarist and lead singer, they still sound amazing. Check out their cover of Earth Wind and Fire's "Fantasy". You will love it. Wishing you the very best with your channel.

You really must watch them play some more Chicago songs AND their covers of Earth Wind and Fire songs, "Fantasy", "In The Stone", and "September." You will be blown away. By the way, I really liked the way you didn't interrupt the song to talk and instead you wrote your feelings onto the video as the song progressed. Very cool.

Honestly I would rather listen to Leonid and Friends do Chicago's material but it was Chicago that brought it to us to begin with so hats off to both. The present day group Chicago just doesn't sound as good to me as the original group did, which was amazing. I'm going to see Leonid and Friends in Jacksonville, Florida in about two weeks and can hardly wait as I've been watching their KZfaq videos about 3 years now and so I'm really looking forward to this live performance. Good job young lady.
