The Real Group - Pass Me The Jazz - Södermalm Sessions (live)

A few friends and family members got to share this special day with us. Shot on the island of Södermalm in Stockholm it doesn't get any closer to home, and this is the vibe we want to share with you - hope you enjoy it.

I can't believe that the audience just sits there and listens quietly without any emotions. This song is groovy as a hell and makes me shake my head each time I listen to it, and they are sitting indifferently just like they are watching a TV or reading a book.

[@musician2598]

If they would not have sit quietly it would have destroyed the total sound since the high quality microphones pick up every sound around them. Thanks to the audience's silence, this recording can be used on a CD. They have emotions, they are just so amazed, listening to the music. And of course:this is a recording session. Those microphones used are not cheap...

[@lenasvn]

They are close family members, they prolly heard the songs a thousand times, and like the other commenter said, it was recorded live, they had to be silent.

[@pandupella4271]

Олег Андриянов they're petrified by the magic

[@JoshuaNgMusic]

They have to be silent because they're recording. The Group was refraining from snapping their fingers which you'd totally do during a live performance.

[@okebaram]

This is not a live performance, it is a music video. Even if we ignore that noise will bother their hearing of the recording, any noise the audience makes at the video shoot still has nothing to do with the recorded music, except at the end when they chose to use the audience's sound in the video.

[@icguy]

there, lyrics Hungry, who, me? Yeah, why not? I could go for something nice Maybe you’ll like this cozy place I know just around the corner? Sure, sounds good! I prefer something special with a spice Count me in, guys! I really gotta get a bite right away Wait up! I’ll join you. I can feel everyone’s ready for The Real Meal I think I wanna have an introduction for a starter An appetizer maybe, before the beat is getting harder Let’s spice it up, let’s amplify it I didn’t come for peace and quiet Heat it up, it’s time to fry it Put me on a jazzy diet! I know you’re gonna love it. To party here is such a pleasure Enjoy your dinner, saint or sinner, you’ll get a full measure This night is gonna be a lot of fun What a groovy place, what a dazzling dive The turntable is set for one, a two, a one two three four five Pass me the jazz, homemade and hot I wanna get in the groove, to the bottom of the beat So keep it cookin’ and stomp your feet Pass me the jazz, all that you’ve got Put temptation in my way with a bottle of blues and a flavor of fun Dig, dig, dig, dig in and dig it Let’s spice it up, let’s amplify it I didn’t come for peace and quiet Heat it up, it’s time to fry it Put me on a jazzy diet! I can’t stop lovin’ the smell from the oven Always itchin’ to get in the kitchen Call the cool cats and tell’em to bring that fascinating rhythm with ’em If you’re in the mood to play I believe your wish is the dish of the day Let’s get out of this interlude. The staff is ready for a swing shift ... a three, four, five Come on, pass me the jazz, homemade and hot I wanna get in the groove, to the bottom of the beat So keep it cookin’ and stomp your feet Pass me the jazz, all that you’ve got Put temptation in my way with a bottle of blues and a flavor of fun Pass the jazz Pass the jazz Appreciate it, celebrate it, elevate it, syncopate it Pass me the jazz and jam, jam, jam! Put temptation in my way with a bottle of blues and a flavor of fun Sweet harmony is on the menu Didn’t I tell you it was my favorite venue I’m in heaven and I wanna stay as long as you Pass me the jazz, homemade and hot A bass line and some moonshine sure is jazz Yeah! Pass the jazz!

I'm amazed at how well-written this song is, how expert the arrangement, and how excellent the performance. Outstanding!

[@IgorDmitrievpiano]

Thats truth!

[@PockASqueeno]

Damn, this is a killer ass song! Reminds me of what I love about jazz as a genre. I love the tempo changes at the end! 🎵

[@user-em1fo7gx5w]

I love this video and watched it again and again for years, but NOW I realize for the first time that it is monochrome from start to finish. The music is amazingly colorful.

[@SUPERSPAZD]

WOWEE!!!🤩 OUTSTANDING!!!!🙌🏽

I keep coming back to this piece. It's SO unbelievably good!!

I agree it's unbelievably wonderful

I just came back after listening to Charismatic Voice analyzed Voctave singing their “Disney Princess Medley”. I so want her to review this.

Wonderful song

I found it and just listen and listen and again and again... #AndersEdenroth the text and the music is just PERFECT. Full of life, full of humor. The performance is UNBEATABLE, your timing, the control and harmony between you is something to admire. Congratulations!!! Could not stop to listen / And glad I finally heard you LIVE in Vienna!

They say to look effortless requires effort. I am sure this wonderful group have worked hard to sound this good. They made it look effortless! It was faultless in my opinion. Amazing sound, I just want to hear more and more please!

That's cause it was edited in post a bunch.

[@norse-nilsbjasa]

@@annaefimtseva612 :) They've been to my town in the annual jazz festival, I saw them perform, 20 years later I still think of that consert with joy. I must correct myself - 2000 concerts are way too few, in 2008 it was 3000 ...

[@jerry9278]

OMG. I really surprised by walking bass of people's mouth. This is awesome...

[@samm3526]

nobody could have said it better than you!

[@dardhadard837]

Those vocal upward leaps are HOT! And this video is where I discovered a group that does a modern, more current version of that nostalgic jazz sound from my childhood (Tom and Jerry, Pink Panther, that kinda sound)

[@jerrymiller3522]

Man, they are at the top of their game in Vocal Jazz. Just love'em.

[@zentrumsounds]

Because they love Autotune!

[@brucehenson1663]

Music and Lyrics by Anders Edenroth as well as the performance. What a talent.

[@oskarvikstrom229]

Yes

[@leongch9421]

Thank you for sharing such wonderful harmonies --Pass more please

[@kathuman]

Their best version of this song so far. Impressive!!

[@dennymalone6871]

Wow! I must have been living under a rock to never have heard of these guys before. They were wonderful.

[@alandakerharley]

Can't stop listening to The Real Group. You guys are brilliant. Lotta rehearsal hours there I guess.

[@TheLisaRolf]

Whatever this group has ever done, this is painstaincally good! The beat, the expression, the groove, the sensitiveness. I'm completely in their musicality!!!!

[@Pureheart_gentlesoul]

Hello Lisa..

Hello Ann..

[@atafuri]

I never got tired from hearing this wonderful composition over and over.... your absolute the best singers I know!

[@wrbroz]

Oh, my - this live performance (and recording of such) is AMAZING !! First, what a wonderful, wonderful song - congratulations to the composer, BRAVO !! And the performance is terrific - each vocal line is perfection and all five members of the group are so tight and completely in synch, even for just the smallest of stylistic interpretations! I LOVE IT !! -- Gina Broz - Los Angeles, California USA

[@GeneDeLisa]

So much excellence in both the performance and the chart.

[@dagnylilliendahl5325]

[@lyricjay1]

As always... FABULOUS!!!

[@bibifrijam]

Exquisite !

[@johndavies8956]

Just amazing.

[@pedroanon]

How can this Swedish be so cold, so soulless? With a song like this one, it'll be dancing the hall time. What an excellent group!!!

[@arnlmndza]

Easily one of the best arrangements of all time for me. Up to this day, am still wondering what happened at 1:34 - 1:39. In my experience, that happens when someone in the group makes a mistake. But for the life of me, i don't hear any. 😊 That Katarina smile is charming.

[@Star.girl.94]

Sometimes we’d smile like that when it’s something we had to work hard to get right when I was in a jazz choir

[@arnlmndza]

@@Star.girl.94 Must be! She looked at the arranger, Anders E., like she's saying, finally. But then again... I looked at the score and it seemed like Anders went a bit sharp (just like a mild guitar bend) in the word "in"? But I wouldn't fault them for that. :) That piece is difficult. Anyway, I wish I could arrange like that. It's awesome.

[@tumelomofokeng4438]

Great vocals & a rich harmony. I'm gonna try and see if I can find their music here in South Africa. I love accapella & so far I have albums of groups like Take6, Manhattan Transfer etc. I can't wait to add The Real Group to my collection. Great stuff!

[@kermitefrog64]

Great sound. They are so smooth. They are unique. This style reminds me of Manhattan Transfer.

[@johncrawfordpiano]

Amazing arrangement, and execution!

I think this is the best version ever! XD

[@yelyharmony2047]

It's the original...DUH!!

[@steveking00000]

Absolute quality - having been involved in recording a few "live" video sessions myself, it's customary to get a good live audio take first, then concentrate on getting all the additional shots the video director needs while lip-syncing to the good audio take you've already got... That would explain why the cough didn't come out on the audio - a different shot at a different time, but the audio is still very definitely live!
