could there be any smoother vocals than this?

Transcription of "Social Call" by Gigi Gryce, performed and arranged by Benny Benack III featuring Veronica Swift. Both of them have absolutely beautiful vocals, and this cover is always a pleasure to listen to. I hope you enjoy it!

Edit: I will only send out pdfs of the scat solos, as I recently found that you can buy the lead sheet for the song on Benny's website. Please support him if you are interested in getting a copy of this wonderful arrangement! You can find it here:

Hey everyone, I hope you enjoy the transcription!

Recently I found out that Benny Benack III sells lead sheets for some of his songs on his website, and that includes this song. While it doesn't have the scat solos included to my knowledge (most likely just the changes), it does have the main melody and the additional lyric sections.
With that being said, I will only be sending pdfs of the transcribed scat solos for this video, and will ask that you support Mr. Benack by buying a pdf of it from his website if you'd like the rest of the arrangement. The link to buy it on his website is in the description, or you can go straight to his website by searching "Benny Benack III" on Google, where it will be the first link that comes up.

Thank you for your understanding!

I can't express how happy I was to see that it was a full transcription and not just an excerpt. I love this recording!

[charleywoodsum]

her voice is the definition of butter. i SWEAR.

[JustinWillhoit]

Amazing vocalists. The 16th note runs are impressive. Not my style but impressive

[OliverWolfe]

This transcription was a much needed antidote.

Imagine someone improvising a solo like these. Like freestyle rapping but jazz. Would that not be. The craziest thing you ever seen.

Would it not.

[shooterxc]

Oh man I love the sound of jazz singers. Its just bliss.

[Gavid]

This is some extremely impressive singing from both of them. Benny at 1:30 and Veronica at 3:38 just completely blew me away.

[APerson-zrqd]

Both singers sung almost like they were an instrument doing a solo. Love this so much

[isaacvelazquez]

I just caught how when She hits the “four” quote, it’s along with the cliche of just one drink. Genius🤯

[a.j.st]

I love how annunciated the consentants are

[brandonmathis]

I saw the dude performing with the 8-Bit Big Band and he sang and played trumpet, legend

[AngPMira]

Veronica Swift is amazinggg! She’s legit and she even performed for Wynton Marsalis at Marseille. She’s the real deal!

[jezebel]

I am LOSING MY MIND. THIS IS INCREDIBLE. He sounds like King Pleasure.

[isaaclewispiano]

Every time I rewatch this I hear something new and it’s crazy how locked in this group is. Everything blends together so perfectly.

[PockASqueeno]

Man, who are those singers? Both of their voices are 🔥! Although I personally was more impressed by the male singer’s huge vocal range, while the lady kind of stayed in the alto register the whole time.

[Cozmix-]

Bruh, I would’ve definitely missed the turns during the scatting section
Insanely impressive stuff from the performers, arranger, and you, the transcriber!

[FancyShrimpp]

Yooo my man Benny getting some spotlight! One my my favorite jazz vocalists!

[skrobie]

It’s like retro, broadway, and modern at the same time amazing vocals I just listen in awe
