Allman Brothers above Grateful Dead and Phish
lol @ Rolling Stone
ha! my first thought when looking at the list...
thanks for posting this, zuke. i\'m gonna blog about it.
Without the criteria used to form this list, it is just a list.
What did Rolling Stone use as factors to decide this list?
I can write a list, too.
Rollingstones is so out of touch. I am boycotting.
allman bros would def be in my top 5, i dunno about #1 tho. DMB is ser. the crowd cheers at the lights more than the music, easily. bright lights on the audience at dmb show= oom pah pah
I wouldn\'t consirder zeplin a jam band
Wow, that list is ridiculous. Even more ridiculous and slightly entertaining are the comments to the actual article. And damn, I feel old. I feel like I was kicking it when the term jamband became popular. And I don\'t know what deems, mahldog, and jenkem are.(these are terms from the RS article, btw)
Relix used to refer to jambands as \'Bay Rock.\' Meaning that they drew influence from the bands that originated from the San Fran area in the mid to late 60s. Solar Circus, Stackabones, Sandoz, New Potato Caboose, Living Earth, Indecision, Max Creek, these are bands I think of when I hear \'jamband.\' But true to form, and as it should, the term encompasses a whole lot more stylistically than it used to. Evolution: stoned by the massive rock(C. Gockley)
Live albums have shown that Zeppelin, Hendrix, and Santana jammed considerably in concert. But I have never heard a definition of "jam band" that accurately describes them.
This list should have been titled, "Rolling Stone Attempts to Appeal to a Larger Fanbase and Fails By Putting Out the Most Generic List Possible That Demonstrates No Knowledge of the Jam Band Genre ".
Though, admittedly, that wouldn\'t fit nearly as well on a magazine cover.
hmmmm, quite silly indeed. It was a readers poll for anyone interested, which goes to show the only people dumber than RS writers are their readers
