Grupa More

Grupa More was a Croatian pop group from Split. It was founded in 1972 by Meri Cetinić and Slobodan M. Kovačević, who met as students at the Pedagogical Academy. Cetinić sang lead and played piano, Kovačević played bass, and together they wrote and arranged the group's music.

The first single, "More", came out on Jugoton in 1973 and its title song became a big success. That year Oliver Dragojević sang with the group, and he added backing vocals to the title track of the debut album More (Jugoton, 1974). Its line-up had Antonija Gerzelj on backing vocals, Tonči Dellazota on guitar, Zvonko Boldin on Hammond organ, electric piano, flute and congas, and on drums Milo Vasić, who later became famous as Jasmin Stavros.

Singles such as "Moj muž" with "Ti si moj san" (1974), "Gdje god da pođeš" (1975) and "Kud se skitaš, mala moja" (1976) followed, and the group had two successful appearances at the Split festival, with "Gdje god da pođeš" and "Samo simpatija". Meri Cetinić sang with the band until the end of 1978, when she went solo; "Samo simpatija" (1978) was the last big hit of her time. More II (PGP RTB, 1979) had Kovačević on lead vocals, and after the group's first break-up some members formed the one-off supergroup Put.

In the 1980s Tedi Bajić, known as Tedi Spalato, played guitar and Remi Kazinoti keyboards, and in 1983 Doris Dragović joined, beginning her singing career with the group. With her they released Hajde da se mazimo (1983), named after its hit single, and Tigrica (1985), which went gold. When Doris Dragović started her solo career in 1986, the group broke up.

For Grupa More's fortieth anniversary, Kovačević, Dragojević, Cetinić, Dragović and Tedi Spalato came together again to record a new version of "More".
