Album
The Dirty Boogie is the third album from the swing band The Brian Setzer Orchestra. The album is considered as the breakthrough for the band, with their first single being a cover of Louis Prima's "Jump Jive an' Wail", which Prima had made popular in 1956 and included in his album The Wildest!. The release of the single coincidentally came along the same time as a Gap advertising campaign which featured Prima's original recording of the song. Each helped to propel the larger swing revival throughout the late 1990's and early 2000's. Seven of the album's tracks are covers of songs written and originally made popular between 1952 and 1962. Structure and release In addition to Prima's "Jump Jive An' Wail", covers include "This Old House" (Stuart Hamblen, 1954); "Since I Don't Have You" (The Skyliners, 1959); "Nosey Joe" (recorded by Bull Moose Jackson, written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, 1952); and "As Long As I'm Singin'" (Bobby Darin, 1962). "You're the Boss", also penned by Lieber and Stoller in 1961, is the album's seventh track, a duet featuring singer Gwen Stefani; an earlier popular recording of the tune paired Elvis Presley and Ann-Margret. The eighth track, "Rock This Town", is an eighth cover on the album, in this case a song originally done in 1982 by Setzer's previous band, the Stray Cats. The album also features a cover of the instrumental "Sleepwalk", made popular originally by songwriters and performers Santo & Johnny Farina in 1959. Setzer's arrangement a
