In Search of Manny is the debut extended play by American alternative rock band Luscious Jackson.

[10] It is essentially the band's demo tape, released after Mike D of Beastie Boys heard a copy.

[11] The majority of the album was recorded by Jill Cunniff and Gabrielle Glaser, with Vivian Trimble and Kate Schellenbach appearing on only two tracks.

[12] MusicHound Rock: The Essential Album Guide wrote that the EP "blends girl group pop, hip-hop rhythms, and smooth urban attitude into a unique stew.

"[5] The Spin Alternative Record Guide called the songs "sweet and sleazy, irradiated by Cunniff's honeyed vocals and Glaser's glacial sass.
