Dayum. Wow.

That was just as good as the original Chicago version.

I am waiting for them to do “Harry Truman” and EWF’s “That’s he Way of the World”.

I just got tickets to see them live in November. My first live show since Del Shannon in 1990 (just before his death).

Hope to see them and speak to a few of them once again.

Always a great show!

Friend stated, you know who even does a better cover of Chicago? Chicago!

Sounds good! Not hard given an infinite number of musicians at your calling.

Just by chance, I found out about them a few years ago.

They are outstanding and always a great listen!

Thank you. I was blown away by the quality of the covers by this group. And they are fun to watch, too.

If you like Leonid and Friends, you’ll like what Tommy Shaw is still doing.

Saw a clip of the gal doing Karen Carpenter’s Superstar. Very nice.

Karen Carpenter sings better.
The other one has a too much cry/whine in her singing.
The Leonid & Friends playing of instruments was better as they emphasized the acoustic guitar and other instruments.
