Buck Jump is an album by the American band the Dirty Dozen Brass Band, released on May 25, 1999.[1][2] It is named for a New Orleans style of dancing.[3] The band supported the album with a North American tour.[4]
The album was produced by John Medeski, who also played organ on some of the tracks.[5][6] Founding member Kirk Joseph, who had officially quit the band, played sousaphone on the album.[6] The tracks were taken mostly from first takes.[6] "Run Joe" is a version of the Louis Jordan song.[7] "Old School" was created in the studio, after the band experimented with a groove.[6] "Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)" is a cover of the Marvin Gaye song.[8]
