Шаблон:Infobox album Шаблон:Music ratings Brother Jug! is an album by saxophonist Gene Ammons recorded in 1969 and released on the Prestige label. It contains material from the same two dates as The Boss Is Back! (1969).

Reception

AllMusic awarded the album 3 stars with its review by Stewart Mason stating, "A swinging soul-jazz set from just before the point where soul-jazz turned once and for all into fusion, 1970's Brother Jug is very much an album of its time... while the album doesn't have the classic timelessness of Gene Ammons' best '50s and early-'60s work, Brother Jug is one of Ammons' better albums released soon after the tenor saxophonist's release from a seven-year prison sentence".

"Jungle Strut" was covered by Santana in the 1971 album Santana III.
