So, who are some of your favorite Jam Bands?

Ill start.

The Allman Brothers in their original form and in the modern form with Derek Trucks and Warren Haynes on guitar. This is the quintessential jam band, in my opinion. One of the bands that this whole "jam band" thing started with. They were great in the studio with songs like "melissa" and "blue sky" in their repertoire. I know their songwriting has been criticized but I completely disagree. The stage, however, is where they really shined. Their dual drumming and guitar attack is Hard to match. They were one of the more advanced rock bands of their time, as well. They used many different time signatures and jazz and classical techniques.
