- "LaRCS" stands for "Live and Record Combined Stereo", which means that on the left side you can hear a live performance, while on the right side the video clip/studio version.
In this case you can enjoy "September" from the Earth Wind and Fire: on the right side the official music video clip, while on the left side a great live cover version from Leonid and Friends (2018, tempo adjusted).
I've been a TV producer/director for many years, actually since Chicago dropped its first album. To do this, to have the balls to do this, to perform a massive original hit by one of the greatest groups ever, and to match it against a film of a performance by the originals, and to not just pull it off on the nose, but to totally kill it, this is true brilliance. RIP Maurice, bless you Sergey, I hope you are well. Thank you Leonid for such vision and daring.
RIP Maurice! Fanflippintastic duet!🙏♥️💯✅
Miss Sergey
I've been trying to contact Sergey on Facebook, but no reply yet ! I too , hope he and his family are safe !!!🙏☝️🙏❤️🙏☝️🙏👍
And to do it in a language that’s not native to him. Outstanding
Blows my mind!
Ksenia Buzina, one of the most beautiful singers of the world - such a beauty and class!
Hard to argue with you on this
@@megavideomarketing she is my girlfriend....shhhhh. she doesn't know it yet
One of the Best cover bands in the world!
no, the best!!!! such artistry!!!!!
Not just a cover band......true artistry
I can't get enough of this band. They are out of this world and every song is a masterpiece!
They might be the best live of all time MAYBE?
They are impressive!!
Preach!
The best cover band in the world and in history.
This band is a total shock for many musicians including me. I don’t know how to grade their skills. To call them great...fantastic....? It doesn’t do justice to their talent! ALL OF THEM are like the cells of a well trained body creating something that many of us didn’t know it was even existed!
Most, if not all, have degrees from prestigious Russian music schools and conservatories so not surprising.
Imagine doing that without really being able to speak English and working it all out by ear.....I saw them open at the village and was really surprised after the show when they did the meet and greet and I realize how heavily accented their English was, it’s probably improved a lot since...but damn....
@@topangus123 I read somewhere Ksenia speaks 7 languages fluently. I thought I was good at two.
@@kgfht5120 Another seven reasons to love her!
@@kgfht5120
I manage three fluently (Dutch, English, German) and a fourth (French) passable. But then I only managed a BSc in Engineering. Ksenia - besides being an achieved singer and virtuoso piano player - has a Masters in Economics to boot. That young woman can write her own future.
And the beautiful Ksenia Buzina on backing vocals .!!
She will be changing her last name to mine soon ;-)
@@markusthedrummer8143
Why are my toes laughing ?
Indeed she's a cutie pie .
I wish Maurice White were alive to hear what an incredible job Leonid and Friends did with this song. No doubt he is smiling from above.
To have Ksenia Buzina as backing vocal is a bit like to have Lionel Messi on the substitutes bench. But L. Messi wouldn´t have that much fun like she has.
She is absolutely gorgeous
She is also a trained world-class vocalist, with talent and beauty.
These covers by Leonid & Friends are joyous celebrations. I love them,
Oh, absolutely.
They've brought me joy that I didn't think was still in me. Restored my faith in humanity. Thank you Glen(Dad)🙂
I miss you
I couldn’t agree more with everyone here.
A celebration is exactly what this is.
I thought I was dreaming 🤔amazing band and vocals ❤❤❤❤
Where did these people come from! What talented individuals. This song sounds better than the original, perfect replication of the 70s sound. Brilliant, just brilliant!
Moscow Russia
On a scale of 1 - 10 they are, like, a 50.
@@davemason9542 tries again therefrom Ukraine!!!
Combo of Russian and Ukrainian. Touring the Mid west today.
Great rendition but NO, not better than the original. Sorry.
It`s the best copy. that I have ever heard.
Ksenia just lights up the screen whenever she appears!
K S E N I A ! ! !
I hope this sensless mess in Ukraine is over soon and we can get back to peaceful ways and great bands like this. GOD bless you all.
Leonid & Friends is a MUST SEE band!!! They're a Chicago tribute band from Russia, who also recorded & performed this EW&F song to perfection!
YEAH and theyre REALLY gooooodd
@@muzakkasyariy I'm so excited! I'm going to see them perform in Atlanta on Thursday, September 23, 2021 at 8:00 PM at the Center Stage! I can't wait!!
@@bettymckinley8063 I had the pleasure of seeing them in Ft Worth...it was one of the best shows I have seen in a long time! Well worth the price of admission!!!
Saw them in Michigan this past October. They surpassed my expectations! They were awesome! Not to mention very nice people. I met a few after the show.
Ukraine.
Dear friends in Russia, we all rely on you. Help stop this war. Fight for freedom and humanity. Let's all live in peace together 🙏

@@petr.prucakovbald Face lie. Putin wants the old Russian empire. Do you believe the state lie that you are already against NATO? 😂😂 oh child
Ironically enough, a few years ago we had the pleasure of seeing Chicago and Earth Wind and Fire in concert. To this day, one of the best concerts EVER.
This cover is absolutely awesome.
Both bands were brilliant. Chicago were a great jazz/rock band with very talented musicians. Terry Kath was a great guitarist. Blood Sweat. A d Tears were just as good.
For someone that has grown up with that 70’s and 80’s music … I can deeply say that you are not only musicians but magicians!!! Your music is magically perfect !!!
I just went to one of their concerts in Florida yesterday night and they were so amazing! They sound just like their recording. They sure blew me away! I love them!I can't wait to see them again. There are no words that could describe their brilliant performance!
Tickets for the show in "September" - very fitting. Love to see them do some Chase charts
Una obra maestra soy cubano en mi país se oía siempre tengo 60 años y cuando era joven bailaba con ellos
When was this concert
You can see the Joy in their faces!! Absolutely perfection!!
拍手喝采!EWFのVIDEOとのシンクロがすばらしい!
Don't call them a cover band. Three Dog Night was a cover band, so was Herman's Hermits, so was Paul Revere's Raiders. So were so many great bands. These guys are incredible.
Geez! I couldn’t tell if it was Earth, Wind, and Fire singing and playing or Leonid and Friends singing and playing. Exactly like EWF, amazing!
Amazing this band very good musicians
I'm not sure if you expected Leonid and Friends to bungle this, but this is spot on. Every note, every word, every bit of passion is right on the money.
awesome band formed from Russia been told every song I hear awesome singers and musicians...awesome great job.
thanks from australia
A PHENOM group and can't get enough of them. The video is perfect spotlighting Maurice White!
Anyone who did not like this is not a true Earth Wind and Fire fan. Music and vocals were spot on and well done.
What an amazing band ,amazing musicians,I wish they would tour Australia ❤😊
I wish they would come to London.
WOW Has got to be "The Best Cover Band In The World"
The sync is incredible!
Such a great band! With the beautiful Ksenia Buzina...i love you!
Simply an amazing tribute supergroup. Cover band just doesn't describe their talent.
Yeah, it really is a reproduction of studio recording done live and thats not easy just ask any muso. André
"Tribute Supergroup" what an apt description - much better than 'cover band'.
I know it hurts (me at least) but sometimes a band can actually improve on the original. Old memories can make you think it was better than it was. This band’s/ensemble’s versions are incredible.
Legends are legends for a reason. Because they brought something above and beyond what everyone was doing. I can't think of any artists from the last 20 years who will ever reach the legend status that Earth Wind and Fire reached.
If you're going to cover the works of legends you'd better bring it. And boy did they bring it.
Wow! To see these side by side really illustrates how well Leonid transcribed the music and how masterful they performed and recreated an icon sound. Gives me goosebumps!
THANKS TO THESE INCREDIBLE MUSICIANS & SINGERS -------------THE 70'S LIVE -------ON, & ON, & ON, FOREVER & EVER. WHAT AN INCREDIBLE DECADE IT WAS , YA JUST HAD TO BE THERE. ---------------------MJL, 77 Y/O
Leonid, the mixing is superb. The band sounds better than the original and I'm a huge fan of Chicago. I bet they are really proud or Leonid & Friends. Thanks for keeping Chicago's music alive.
I don't think any other cover band on the planet can do the originals more justice, if not be better than the original.. L&F record digitally and you can hear more instruments and clearer sound as if in the studio with EW&F. Jaw-dropping!
I love it!
This band is freaking! fantastic!
Kesinia ! ! !
I really want to see these guys live. What a talented group of people.
I absolutely agree. They are currently touring the USA so check their website for details. I will see them in NYC in May
That was incredible to hear them together. Shows what a great job Leonid did in arranging and how well it was carried out. Of course, it also shows how great the original was.
September one of the best dance and rhythmic songs in history, Earth Wind and Fire its great creators and Leonid and friends unbeatable with this version, a wealth of good musicians, who love the music of great groups in history.
Absolutely fantastic!
KESNIA IS A GODDESS WITH VOICE OF AN ANGEL SHE COULD MAKE STONE WEEP
Thanks for saying what I have wanted say forever... She reminds me of why I think Russian women are the most beautiful in the world.
Awesome side by side comparison. The power of 1.
I just stumbled onto this. August 8, 2020.
This is INSANE how in sync L&F are to EW&F!!!!
L & F have two albums on iTunes. I highly recommend them. They're all Chicago songs, but it's just as brilliantly done as this E W & F cover. I'm hoping they include their non-Chicago songs on a third album.
Agree about the sync. Tempo adjustment alone could not achieve that.
Give a LOT of credit to Igor. His drumming drives the tempo that delivers the sync.
@@jirimondo like you (and me!) Danny Seraphine is a fan of Igor's playing.
You got it!
This group is fantastic. I would love to see them live. I live in the Sacramento area of California. USA. I’ll have to look for them to be here.
This music puts a smile on face for hours. I loved this back in college and love it even more now. Like I never heard it before. Pure happiness.
KESENIA ! ! !
It reminds me of college as well, only these "guys" are even better
Just amazing the precision of Leonid and friends!.... Just great!
She's so beautiful :)
Y E S ! !
I saw EWF at a concert back in the 70s. Grand funk opened for them. Brings back so many great memories
when ppl get up n are dancin' around....it's a great song, no matter who's playing' it!!
Probably the best cover of any song I’ve ever heard.
You might want to hear them do 25 or 6 to 4.
I agree
Better, yes better than the original by EW&F - but that's just my opinion.
Боже как здорово. Творите ребята.❤
Incredible… fantastic… amazing… what a gift to all of us. Thank you so very very much!
Leonid & Friends are outstanding musicians and fantastic performers! The joy and enthusiasm in their performances is electric. As a retired music teacher, I used EW&F's September with my students to demonstrate how professional groups would push tempo as a tune progressed. In the original recording, EW&F picked up the tempo by almost 12 beats a minute from beginning to end. Leonid & friends didn't quite do that, but still managed a 6-8 beat push. I always wondered if it was planned or was an important nuance of the recording they loved.
Wonderful band and impeccable vocals....wow I love you 🇧🇷✨🌹🥰🇧🇷✨🌹🥰🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Leonid and Friends ended their Clearwater, Florida concert with this song a few years ago and it was great then. This compilation with the insert of the original by EW and F is over the top, what a wonderful assemblage of fine musicians and performers all excellent in what they do. Compliments to all of you who took part in this production!!!
I wish they’d come to California!!!
Touring the Midwest now
It's mind boggling to me how much talent must be involved for so much beautifully flawless and original music content to be constantly.
Someone below nailed it. They are out of this world!
I met my wife in September of 1978 when this song came out. These people do the song better than the original. And Ksenona could melt an ice cube by just being in the same room, wow!! Make an ole man wish for younger day's.
Absolutely spot on……..just crazy! Who is the GORGEOUS female back up singer? She has to do more front line stuff! Thanks for so much talent 😊!
Ksenia. Lots of her videos here on RUclips.
The very BEST September cover and most of Chicago great songs....yes they are very gifted and talented musicians.
The bass line is exact 100% between 2 videos, feeling like there is only 1 bass. Perfect working!
One more time !! I am speechless ! I have this song on 45, & I still own to this day. it was an irresistible winner, impossible to not sing along, with hips & hands moving ! Again, my highest commendation to all ! ----------MJL, 76 y/o
I played Trumpet in our HS school band and when we played this song all 24 of us trumpets would unleash on those Trumpet riffs at the end. We loved it.
In the following linked video you can see two of my favorite jazz trumpeters and singers, the then 15 years old Andrea Motis, and the only 8 years old (!) Alba Armengou: ruclips.net/video/F2RdBFZie2o/видео.html
This performance just doubles the joy of possibly the most incredibly upbeat, infectious song ever.
Lo mejor y unico que une a los humanos es EXCLUSIVAMENTE LA BUENA MUSICA.
COMO ESTE GRAN TEMAZO.
From Russia with love !!!!!! Super fantastic group
What a gift to the world this group is!
After the pandemia I hope you come to Mexico... People here will love you... I am sure
Desde que descubrí esta agrupación , he quedado fascinado con la calidad de sus interpretaciones , gracias Leonid & friends!!!!!
Brings me to tears. Love love live on . I can't sleep at night music keeps playing in my mind,when I'm in kitchen, when driving, bought their cd waiting for it.
A little post-production magic on the vocals on this one, but Leonid and Friends do have the best studio production.
The joy is infectious and there is a lot of Ksenia. Her beautiful smile lights up the world.
Ksenia. She shines best in this kind of situation. The way she dresses in these backup singing roles is the very best. She doesn't need anything other than her smile, her movements and her casual clothes.
Je reviens régulièrement vous écouter toujours avec autant de plaisir, bravo Leonid & Friends ! C'est vraiment digne d'EWF, sans réserve. J'adore les violons.
EW&F are fancier dressers, but Ksenona is definitely cuter than Maurice White! :p
(Seriously, they are both phenomenal groups, both talented and well centered as a group!)
О да!
Maurice was great and E,W&F will be missed but Ksenia and LNF will continue to make it happen
Wonderful to see Maurice White again. Great tribute with the split screen video. Leonid, once again your band is flawless...
Bravo genial 😅😅😅😅🎉🎉🎉 muchos de los músicos y vocalista son muy buenos ...y sobretodo gente joven que saben de lo mejor de esta época ❤🎉
Pure JOY - from Russia with LOVE!
(Ksenia ❤️)
CAN NOT WAIT TO SEE YOU AGAIN IN NASHVILLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good cover band. Earth, Wind and Fire wrote so many great hits. It's nice to see that others recognize that and are trying to keep them alive.
For the best experience use headphones!
i just did.
Yes i am using them and im very glad.
Me being a studio musician and familiar with editing I think you did a good job with editing and synchronization with both videos together with the audio. It must have been a heck of a job editing. I did see a few oit of sync moments but I think for the most part a job well done
Denver Morgan p da
It's true ! With the head phones you can hear everything and its done so right!
Yeah, ... but EWF never had a yellow t-shirt that looked that good.
and there it is....
Ain’t that the truth , wow ....
@@salmonella508 Has any band?
😆😊👍
Isn’t she lovely, isn’t she wonderful ..oh sorry, that’s Stevie Wonder 😂🤩
Wow, I have to say that you all so very impressive. I thank GOD that I can listen to you all singing so beautifully.
Fantástica produção, fantástico grupo, fantástica banda fantástico tudo
❤🎉
The young lady, Ksenia Buzina, has done lots of covers and has an absolutely flawless voice. Check out her version of One Last Cry by Brian McKnight. Beautiful!.
Also a flawless face! ✨ I know, call me a chauvinist. I don't care.
Ksenia.
Might as well add she is beautiful!
LOVE TO SEE KSENIA DO THE LINDA RONSTEAD SONG YOUR NO GOOD!!
She is absolutely gorgeous!!!😍😍😍
@@hughmongous6613 Talented & Speaks Many Languages including Chinese ! ! Only came in Second in the Russian Version of the " Voice " TV Show , I Think ?

Брависсимо!
It really all so beautiful seeing those Russian violinist ladies having the time of their lives smiling and enjoying while playing their favorite instruments!!!! B E A U T I F U L!!!!
Yes Victor , & Kesenia ! !
SZo good to see so many bands doing such quality stuff. The Aussie Hindley Street band, so many great bands
It just hit me, Ksenia you look like a very young Raquel Welch. I stumbled across you guys doing a Chicago cover "I've been searching". I still can't get over your musicality and the vocals all over. You guys come visit Texas and you can stay at my place!!! So awe inspired by your talents!!!
NOW, I WANT TO SEE A PERFORMANCE WITH THE REAL EARTH, WIND AND FIRE BAND WITH LEONID AND FRIENDS - THAT WOULD BE SO, GREAT TOO. '' Y'ALL ARE GREAT!"
This just go to show that there timing is spot on perfect to match the original. Infact this is better than the original.. top notch musicians who look so happy, terrific vocals . Beautiful people that shine from within.
You guys are making a lot.greatness one song after another, istill cant believe my ears every time you play,WOW!!!!!!!
Una de las mejores banda ,eso es musica no la porquería que hoy hacen , q son un cachivache
Great song by a great group, and a great cover by a great band!
genios!!! todo lo hacen recontra bién!!!! ya soy fan de ustedes!!! bravo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
EW&F was the very first band I saw as a young kid '78. Man they were great in concert! These guys and gal, do them all the justice in the world. Their sound is so clean. Love that horn section!! If you close your eyes you would swear the lead singer, Sergey is Maurice White in a different body. Damn they sound good!!
