Вольный перевод с английского:
“Без 25 или без 26 минут 4”
(Песня о том, как мучительной порой сочиняются песни)
Дожидаюсь рассвета
Подыскиваю нужные слова
Свет мигалок рассекает небо за окном
Я сдаюсь и закрываю глаза
Сижу на полу с поджатым ногами
Без 25 или без 26 минут 4
Поднимаюсь, чтобы умыться
Просто стараюсь не заснуть
Слепо уставившись в одну точку
Удивляюсь, сколько я еще могу выдержать
Должен ли я сделать что-то ещё?
Без 25 или без 26 минут 4
Чувствую, что мне нужно поспать
Перед глазами всё идёт кругом
Ищу, что сказать
Жду рассвета
Без 25 или без 26 минут 4

Sergey was a natural, super talented guitarist, with the guitar seemingly a permanent part of him. Missing him and Serge, two incredible people. These guys speak very little English, with the exception of Leonid's son, yet their pronunciation is almost perfect while singing. I'm still awed that Russians are honoring an American band. Leonid's story of growing up under communism is inspiring.

I'm completely in shock and awestruck.

I think he does a better job than TK ever did in the studio or live.

I have saved every, single one of Leonid & Friends songs as my "favorites!" I've played the trumpet for more than 30 years and the way Andrey Zyl plays high C's, and high G's effortlessly, left me breathless! I've NEVER heard a more together band in my life. I also agree with those who say that "these guys are not a cover band, they're the real thing" are absolutely correct! I grew up listening to Chicago and EW&F and I'm almost ashamed to say that I enjoy the way Leonid & Friends sound than I do the originals!

Sergey's guitar work on this some of the best on the internet. He just channels Terry Kath. So many chances to soar on this one and he takes them all. The rhythm section is killing it too. Leonid and Igor more than just covering the original. Leonid shows what a phenomenal bass player Cetera was in his prime. And Igor is one of the worlds great drummers. The whole thing is just perfection.

Sergey is phenomenal, know several very good lead guitarists, might try to cover SRV, might try to cover Hendrix, but will shy away from covering Kath. BTW, my favorite horn song, trumpet part is actually pretty easy compared to 'Make Me Smile' or 'Saturday in The Park'.

I CANNOT stop watching & listening to this group! Since I ‘discovered’ them, here on RU-vid, 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!

Their reasons could be very odd and subjective. 'Thumbs Down' voters should be required to explain their reactions in a separate comment section in order to be allowed to 'downvote' a video. A negative vote in the current fashion is too cryptic. Turn things around. If someone managed to upload a video of an old lady being beaten and robbed, most people would probably wonder why someone would ever give it a 'Thumbs Up'. Requiring an explanation of one's dislike for a video might yield some of the most compelling comments ever left. ; ]

My wife and I caught the 'Leonid and Friends" show in Ft. Wayne, Indiana on Oct. 27 and it honestly far exceeded our expectations. It can be very difficult to sound as good when playing live as when in the recording studio, but the group absolutely sounded fantastic. The audience was all standing at the end of the show and calling for an encore, which the band provided. There manager, too, did a terrific job of engaging with the audience. The next day my wife and I stopped in to Sweetwater Music Center (a huge nationally known music center located in Ft. Wayne) and saw members of the group in the store. I generally never approach celebrities in public since I don't want to interfere with their privacy but we did end up approaching (after apologizing profusely for the intrusion) the table where several were seated simply to let them know how much we enjoyed the show. I have to say that they were incredibly pleasant and appreciative. I intentionally kept our interaction brief but I have to say that the reaction we received further cemented my impressions that this group of musicians is truly unique. We drove up from Florida to catch the show and it was well worth the trip. If you get a chance to see the band live don't fail to do so.

@@technojunkindatrunk They performed at the Clyde. It was a complete sold out full house. When I got to talk to several of them the next day they implied that they will be coming back to Ft. Wayne but of course no dates were given. In light of the support role that Sweetwater plays it seems reasonable to at least hope they will be returning in the not too distant future. I know that they were in Ft. Wayne 2 or 3 years ago, also, since one of my friends caught that show.

Thank you John so much for responding to my question! It is appreciated. I completely forgot about the Clyde. Back in the day, the early sixties, my parents would drop me and my girlfriend off at the Clyde Theatre whenever the Beatles and Elvis Presley had their movies airing. My God, we were very little then-sure couldn’t do that these days! I don’t watch tv so I might miss an advertisement of the band coming back but I’ll be on the lookout. Thanks again. 🙋‍♀️

I’ve seen them twice at the Florida Theater in Jacksonville. The second show was as mind blowing as the first show I saw two years before even though the original lead guitarist Sergey had departed. The replacement guitarist nailed it as well.

The people in USA LOVE THIS! we are so sick of seeing the actual artists perform a different version of their songs we come to love from the radio version. And it’s because they don’t care - they have their money and no longer feel the need to put any effort into it. LnF plays EVERY song dead on and with energy and artistic integrity to the original. Amazing.

Exactly! This is why I never went to see most musical groups or singers perform live because it was always a disappointment. Either they never sounded as good live or they were always diverging from the radio version of their songs by changing the melody line with improvisation and bailing out on high notes. Most groups really gave their all in the studio to immortalize the best version of their songs on the record but never on stage, and it always felt like a bit of a rip off at concerts. People are so drawn to Leonid and Friends because it's the extremely high musical standard and quality they're reacting to. We just don't hear it with most groups in live performance, and it's like our souls are starved for this kind of quality and musicianship.

No! To me, he's the weak link. He has the pitch, but not the soul. A small quibble, tho' - this is a dynamite remake.
