That's what I am talking about Pig

. I never heard of any of them. Thank goodness for the internet. Always love the blues Master Jedi

thanks. I am fairly well rounded in my musical interest. I just got done with my yearly Frank Black kick. It was very fun while it lasted.

GOOD question! although I'm not so sure your selections 1.,3. and 5. are totally jam-free! I know the Jackmormons drummer Brad; he sometimes plays GD stuff with the Garcia Birthday Band here in PDX. Dig the Drive-Bys, our soundguy at Goodfoot always plays them.
not in any order:
1. Clutch
2. White Stripes/Jack White
3. My Morning Jacket
4. Black Keys
5. Feist
ok, so my middle three were pretty jammy too... but not quite classifiable as "Jam".

+1 !! Can't believe I didn't include them... brilliant pop/folksters, but again jams, some very HEAVY WEIRD jams are a feature of this band.
