Jump, Jive an' Wail is a 1956 song by Louis Prima.[1][2] It first appeared on his album The Wildest! and became one of his signature songs.[3]

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.
