Leonid & Friends Chicago cover band, Ides Of March Vehicle

[HazletonLion]

Seen this band at Penn's Peak , Jim Thorpe. Note for note their covers of Chicago, and Earth Wind & Fire were great. The lovely Ksenia Buzina is a stunningly beautiful woman. BTW they are all from Russia most can only speak a couple words in English.

This is a great cover if this great song. Nicely done

I want you got to have you child
Great God in heaven you know I love... you
Oh... you know I do...

I discovered that band on Youtube a year or two ago. They really are fantastic. Anyone that wants to see more, just go to Youtube and type in their name.

The guy with the PSU shirt is Sergey Kashirin, was really good on Questions 67 & 68. Your right about the lyrics, that song is 50 years old this month, I think songs like Young Girl, Girl You'll Be A Woman Soon, You're 16, Go Away Little Girl, Christine 16.

All of their cover songs are terrific. If you listen to them with your eyes closed(and didn't notice the Russian accent on the vocals), you would swear that they are the Terry Kath era Chicago Traffic Authority/Chicago.
Whats even more amazing is that they had to learn the songs by sitting and listening to them...over and over, and transcribing line by line! No sheet music was available to them...
