Favorite LONG jams?
Inspired by Larree's teasing of me in Bob Elliott's Spirit thread...
I am a Deadhead by marriage. And, while not generally a big fan of the extended jam, there are some long jams that I can get into.
For example, Stevie Ray Vaughan can play forever and I wouldn't mind.
And, if you haven't heard Television's 11-minute opus "Marquee Moon", you really need to do yourself a favor, Larree.
What are YOUR extended jams? Or, do you just plain not like them?

It depends on who is doing the jamming. I can listen to the Allman Brothers forever!
They are my favorite "long jam" band.

One of my favourite long-song-jam bands is Traffic - especially "On The Road" - a double-live album of just six songs!!!! Wicked!

Are you familiar with The Red House Painters? They do a cover of McCartney's "Silly Love Songs" that has a huge psychedelic intro jam where you never see the song coming until it hits you and you go, "What the hell was that?" I guess they're going for irony like when Husker Du used to do the Mary Tyler Moore theme. I've always liked the jam in the middle of Hotel California. I'm not much a fan of extended jams either, really.

Steppin' Out on Live Cream Volume 2 is a long jam touchstone of mine; being live and extended it does lose focus here and there but I find it sublime. I'll join in on the Allman bandwagon...prefer the Dead's studio work to their extended live jams...

Miles Davis knew a thing or two about long jams.
