He played with Peetie Wheatstraw, Roosevelt Sykes, Casey Bill Weldon and Memphis Minnie. Most of his big hits came to be in the early to mid-1930s, for example "Keep It Clean". From the late 1930s into the 1940s he also frequently worked with Big Joe Williams. He later recorded under the name "Uncle Skipper". In 1928, Jordan was shot in the spine, this was due to his extramusicial career as a bootlegger (illegally transporting alcoholic beverages). This spinal injury gave him a disability which caused him to walk with crutches thereafter (this can be seen in the few photographs that exist).
