Jukin' is the sole album recorded by the first incarnation of The Manhattan Transfer. Tim Hauser formed the original The Manhattan Transfer with Erin Dickens, Marty Nelson, Gene Pistilli, and Pat Rosalia. The group contracted with Capitol Records, recorded a few tracks and in 1971, issued the album Jukin'.
The group with the aforementioned personnel lasted only about two years, according to Tim Hauser. He said, "Gene and I were in two different places. He was more into country & western, R&B, and the Memphis sound, and by then I'd become more interested in jazz and swing..."[1]
The current Manhattan Transfer group was formed in October of 1972, after this album was released. The only member from the original group is Tim Hauser. The debut album for The Manhattan Transfer is considered to be The Manhattan Transfer, released in 1975.
Jukin' can be considered as a historical prelude to The Manhattan Transfer as it exists today.
