Production

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]

The Charleston Daily Mail opined that "Buck Jump qualifies the Dirty Dozen as the rightful heirs to the Meters' Crescent City crown."[18] The Washington Post noted that the album "isn't so much an advance as a grander sonic exposition of the New Orleans ensemble's trademark sound: classic Crescent City parade band music melded with sinewy R&B and fiery jazz."[19]

The Orlando Sentinel said that "the band skillfully fuses its funky brass-band roots with be-bop, offering up inventive solos, striking harmonies and killer grooves."[12] Jon Pareles listed Buck Jump at No. 2 on The New York Times' list of its "Favorite CD's You Nearly Missed".[20] The San Francisco Examiner called the album "nothing less than masterly."[16] The Press of Atlantic City considered it "one of the most enjoyable jazz albums of 1999."[14] The Herald-Sun ranked it at No. 4 on its list of the 11 best albums of 1999.[21]
