''Billboard'' ranked it as the No. 12 song for 1974.〔Billboard Year-End Hot 100 singles of 1974〕 The song's spoken main vocal was performed by the band's roadie Don Boyce. An instrumental version of the tune with an overdubbed flute part and additional percussion instruments titled "Jungle Jazz" appeared on the album ''Spirit of the Boogie''. The song is noted for the Tarzan yell heard at the song's end and the grunting, panting, and the scatting heard throughout. == In popular culture == "Jungle Boogie" and "Jungle Jazz" have been repeatedly sampled in subsequent popular music.
