Amazing Chicago tribute...
« on: May 17, 2019, 12:32:58 PM »
... from Russia  :o

Leonid Vorobyev & Friends are an amazing group of musicians who strive to recreate the original recordings/sound/vibe of the band Chicago.
Each and every musician of this group is incredible.

They are doing a great job!!  Also, having female backup singers is a plus.

That bass work on Saturday In The Park is freakin' AMAZING.  And after listening to I'm a Man (one of my favorite tunes ever) it confirms the bass player is a monster. 

Man, those dudes are GOOD.

I'd like to hear them do "Dialogue 1&2"

The bass player is Leonid Vorobyev. He is the band leader, conductor, arranger and producer.
I think he's amazing. The recordings sound so incredibly good.
And yes, his bass playing is incredible too.

I sent the music earlier to a friend who is often hard to impress.  I just got an email from her.  She's impressed.

Brass sections are so much fun. When I retire I'll take trombone lessons.

My Son in Law turned me onto them about a month ago.
Read their bios and its easy to understand their chops.  'I also like their take on Earth Wind and Fire's September.

They popped up on my Facebook feed a while back and the more I saw, the more impressed I became. They really are that good. There's a light humor in the way they cut their videos too. The fun they're having comes across in everything I've seen.
