Here are all of AlexEliason's jams.
by Stars of the Lid
The full 2 hour album by ambient group Stars of The Lid. This album is extremely beautiful and very powerful. Great for putting you into a positive mood.
by Earth
Saw Earth live a couple days ago at a little hole in the wall venue in Seattle. They played this song. It was a pretty amazing show. Got to meet Dylan the lead guitarist. Very nice guy.
by Led Zeppelin
I've been feeling drum solos all day and this one always seems to hit the spot. Ladies and Gentlemen Mr.John Bonham!
by King Crimson
The third track from the 1974 album Red by King Crimson. This was the final album from King Crimson until 1981 with Discipline. Anyways, this song is awesome so enjoy!
by The Body Lovers
The 1998 album by The Body Lovers which was an ambient music project by Michael Gira and was his first post-Swans project. He never released the following two parts of the album. What a shame. Enjoy!

The opening track to the 2012 album by fellow Washington native band Earth. I once jammed with the guy who played bass on this album and Angels of Darkness, Demons of Light part 1. Just an extra piece of info about this album. Anyways, enjoy!
by Ornette Coleman
R.I.P. One of my favorite artists in Jazz music. Practically the maker of Free Jazz music has passed away today at the age of 85 years old. He was an innovator to all sorts of musicians and was a legend to many as well. He will truly be missed. This is the opening track to his legendary 1959 album The Shape of Jazz to Come. Enjoy!

The fourth track off of Pink Floyd's seminal eighth album released in 1973 titled Dark Side Of The Moon. Dig it!
by Jimi Hendrix
An epic 13 minute track off of the third and final album by The Jimi Hendrix Experience "Electric Ladyland". This album is amazing and I would recommend it to anyone into psychedelic music and jam stuff.
by King Crimson
Try to count the one on this track! Jeez! The band shows off their rhythmic virtuosity with this track. Especially the mighty Bruf (Bill Bruford their at the time drummer). Anyways, dig it.

by Kamasi Washington
A track off of this day old three hour long Jazz debut by Kamasi Washington. I've been told this album is exactly what the title says about it. This album is called The Epic.
by Swans
I can't believe I missed this show. I'm so glad they got it on high quality video. This over 2 hour performance is perfect! It also features some tracks that may possibly make it to their next album that they are recording in September.

The second track of the second disc of the nearly two and a half hour epic of an album called Soundtracks For The Blind is a post rock epic that always has made me think of Godspeed You! Black Emperor. This song is just an experience like this entire album is.

Off of the 1991 album White Light From The Mouth Of Infinity, this song seems to be quite a well known track for pre-hiatus Swans. This was one of the first songs I heard by Swans. I enjoyed it and hopefully you will enjoy it too!

I've decided to do a week of jams dedicated to my favorite group at the moment. So here is to day one of Swans week. This is a single that was released on the compilation album entitled "Various Failures" which was songs from the year 1988 to 1992. So anyways, I have no clue when this song was recorded or released but it was sometime then. Anyways, I would greatly appreciate any support for Swans week. Hope you guys enjoy my first pick!

This is probably the heaviest thing ever! The opener from the second album by Swans. The only thing heavier than their debut is their second album. They ditched one drummer, slowed down their tempo, and added even more disturbing noise. If you're looking for probably the most intense recordings ever listen to this album!

My personal favorite track off of the 1970 seminal album by the California jam band Grateful Dead. This album marks a very folk and country centered point in this band's nearly three decade career.
by Jimi Hendrix
Off of his third and final album with the Experience. This album was released on October of 1968 and changed music drastically. Electric Ladyland is an amazing and important album in rock music. I chose one of my many favorites off of the album. This is the 15 minute Voodoo Chile not to be confused with the closer on this album Voodoo Child (Slight Return). Hope you Enjoy it!

This 33 minute Jazz epic is in my opinion not only one of the best songs of all Jazz history but is one of the greatest albums in all of Jazz history. Just my opinion. If you listen to it all I hope you enjoy it as much as I have.

by Ginger Baker's Air Force
Off of their 1970 first album of two albums, both released the same year. The Air Force was called such because they were known as the highest band in music. The band also consisted of musicians such as Steve Winwood, Phil Seamen, Graham Bond, and way way more people. The band lasted a very short time but managed to leave their mark in the early 70's Jazz Fusion scene.

Day three of some songs i've been enjoying over January. Released on November 8, 2005 off of the split album titled Akron/Family & Angels Of Light. Half of the album features the band Akron/Family who are on the same record label as Angels Of Light which is Michael Gira's own YoungGod Records. This is a song originally written by Bob Dylan but this was a cover performed by Angels Of Light.
