Just looking for some insight to everyones favorite jams, to those not familiar to the term a “jam”, it is a song or portion of a song with deep instrumental collaboration, usually near the end of them
Some of mine are
“cocaine” eric clapton
“the other one” grateful dead
“you enjoy myself” phish
“rivertrance” string cheese incident
“little wing” Stevie Ray Vaughan cover
“Jessica” the allman brothers

It was written and recorded first by Bob Dylan.
The Dead may have performed it live, but to my knowledge never recorded it.
Hendrix was the first person to record a cover of it.
I didn't check referrence books, but this is how I know it. (legal disclaimer in case I'm wrong)
Aside: I'd really be interested to hear that Neil Young/Chrissie Hinde version.

Not sure if they did it before this, but I checked Rhapsody and there is a version of it on the CD "Dylan and the Dead" (where they are performing together). The Neil Young/Chrissie Hinde version is on the CD "Road Rock Vol. 1".
P.S. Just checked yahoo music and the Grateful Dead recorded it by themselves on the CD "Dozin' At The Knick".

Well yes it's obviously Bob Zimmermans song, the version off rare and bootleg being the best of his, but The Dead were performing it not long after him, their only album release of it was from the 87 tour with Dylan (Jerry on pedal steel guitar during those shows ftw) but dead shows were all recorded so that can kinda go either way

Not very original but Led Zeppelin's Stairway to Heaven has one of the all time great "jams" near the end. If it can be an entire song of "deep instrumental collaboration" then I choose Rush, YYZ.
If those don't qualify as "jams" then nm!

the decemberists use all kinds of crazy instruments that i've never seen/heard of before... does that count as "jamming"? if so, put me down for "the mariner's revenge song"
