Вольный перевод с английского:
“Суббота в парке”
Суббота в парке
Кажется, это было 4 июля
Люди танцуют, люди смеются,
Продавец мороженого
Распевает итальянские песни
"Эй, приятель! Что за песня!"
Ты понимаешь? (Да, понимаю!)
Я так долго ждал этой субботы...
Обычный день в парке,
Кажется, это было 4 июля.
Люди болтают, искренне улыбаются,
Парень играет на гитаре
И поёт для всех нас.
Ты поможешь ему изменить мир?
Ты понимаешь? (Да, понимаю!)
Я так долго ждал сегодняшний день...
Неторопливые наездники расцвечивают день,
И бронзовый человек всё ещё рассказывает свои истории.
“Слушайте, дети, ещё не всё потеряно,
Ещё не всё потеряно, нет, нет”
Весёлые дни в парке.
Каждый день - 4 июля.
Люди встречаются, люди общаются.
Всех нас ждёт, настоящий праздник,
Если мы этого захотим, по-настоящему захотим.
Ты понимаешь? (Да, понимаю!)
Я так долго ждал этой субботы...

There is no crime , and no one is doing time. They have sold over 100 million records, and one of the Longest running , best selling groups of ALL TIME!! They have not been underrated to repeat myself. Still great memories though :) And a great video and a great tribute to Chicago!!!

I CANNOT stop watching & listening to this group! Since I ‘discovered’ them, here on KZfaq, 2 weeks ago I’ve played their entire catalog over & over (& over ...). As both a vocalist & horn player growing up in the ‘60s & ‘70’s in America I was obsessed with the great horn bands like Chicago; Blood Sweat & Tears; Earth, Wind & Fire, et. al.. I marvel at the exquisite musicianship displayed by all of these immensely talented people and only wish I could could ‘sit in’ with them! Leonid’s ability to cipher these tracks - BY EAR - is reminiscent of the scene in ‘Amadeus’ (movie about Mozart) where Mozart hears Salieri’s march played once by the Emperor Joseph II ... which leads to Mozart sitting down and playing it and then running many variations off with ease. Okay, back to the present from my obscure movie reference ... Leonid & Friends musicianship, obvious passion and enjoyment of playing keystone music from my youth has brought tremendous joy to me in what has been (like so many I suspect) one of the most difficult years of my 60 year-old life! (2020) I am a disabled Veteran living in chronic pain and fatigue from Parkinson’s disease. My medical providers encouraged me to return to my musical & artistic youthful endeavors for ‘Neuroplasticity’ ... and it’s been one of the most effective means of pushing back on chronic pain and keeps me from falling into the twin abyss of dopamine deficiency induced Anxiety & Depression. I, however, hit a very rough spot, 3 months ago and stopped painting and playing my music. That is ... UNTIL I heard Leonid & Friend’s opening riffs of Chicago’s “Make Me Smile”. ... which, in a profound way they did! Thank you so very much to all of you in Leonid & Friends for returning music, joy and hope back into my life!

I am a lifelong musician, played with world famous people from symphony orchestras to blues bands in sketchy bars. I have seen performances from Beijing to Copenhagan. I have never seen a better performance in every sense. Personal warmth, joy, skill, taste. Excellence.

@brookswade5774 3 жыл бұрын

This entire friggin band is phenomenal. I haven’t heard them play anything by Chicago that wasn’t dead on. If you want to hear them cover a song and wonder if they dubbed the original singers and players over their video, watch the cover of September, by Earth, Wind, and Fire. I couldn’t believe how good they are.

If Chicago had any sense, they'd bring a few of these guys into the fold. That kid sounds a lot like Peter Cetera, their harmonies are tight and their musicianship is top-flight. And they do Chicago better than Chicago ever did live, at least since the 70s.
