"Jump, Jive an' Wail" is a 1956 jazz swing song by Louis Prima.[1][2] It first appeared on his album The Wildest! and became one of his signature songs.[3] Keely Smith, Prima's wife at that time, was one of the backup singers on the song.
The song had a resurgence in popularity during the Swing revival in the late 1990s.[4] The Gap used Prima's version in a "Khakis Swing" commercial in 1998.[5] The Brian Setzer Orchestra covered the song on their 1998 album The Dirty Boogie.[6] In 1999 Setzer's cover won the Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals at the 41st Grammy Awards.
Louis Prima's version is used in the 2008 film Igor.[citation needed]
The 1998 version was featured in Stuart Little & Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie trailers.
