RJ BeeRiverport is on my Rushmore. I think. Vote for yours:

Chop@rjbee.bsky.social Riverport is the đ. Game over.
That leaves 3 more. I agree.
@rjbee.bsky.social If the goal of the Mt. Rushmore is to show the most important in history, I think you need to add Murat for sure. Then Went and Ruppâeven if neither of them make my top 5 favorite versions. Will also accept arguments for Magna.
Yeah. I think our debate will always be on 1-2 versions. Like Murat is important, but not top 4 most important to me. Will be interesting. Magna has as much of an argument as Murat imo
@rjbee.bsky.social Dude. Murat is the George Washington of Gins. It belongs on Mt Rushmore even more than the Riverport Goat.
TheJediSwitchYou could argue it is the George Washington of true type II jams in general.
lumpblockclod@thejediswitch.bsky.social So the next logical question, what is the Mt. Rushmore of Type-II jams? Measured by âimportanceâ not âbestâ. Iâd go with:
Murat Gin
Bomb Factory Tweezerfest
Albany YEM
Hamburg Wolfmanâs
Last jam off: Albany Seven Beghost
Wow. Thatâs a good question and great list. Hmm
@rjbee.bsky.social @lumpblockclod @thejediswitch.bsky.social
Albany YEM and Murat Gin are easy.
Providence Bowie
Then Iâm torn between Bomb Factory, Mud Island, and Bozeman.
neddyo@chopaganda @rjbee.bsky.social @lumpblockclod @thejediswitch.bsky.social I say Bomb Factory.
In my experience BITD the jams that "changed everything" were the Murat Gin and the Bomb Factory Tweezer. Undeniably.
@Neddyo @rjbee.bsky.social @lumpblockclod @thejediswitch.bsky.social Fair. We can also do this for late 3.0.
Mohegan Sun âHopefulness & Happinessâ
BB&T Pavilion âJust Smile Pt. IIâ
Coast Credit Union Music Park âUnderground Sunshineâ
MSG âTwirl While Youâre Whirlingâ
Mr. Completely@Neddyo @chopaganda @rjbee.bsky.social @lumpblockclod @thejediswitch.bsky.social has to include the Denver Ghost because of the impact it had internally on the band
@mrcompletely @Neddyo @chopaganda @rjbee.bsky.social @thejediswitch.bsky.social I debated Denver Ghost with Hamburg Wolfmanâs. The Ghost is the perfection of what started with that Wolfmanâs. (You can go further back to RiL, but a) thereâs no signature jam from Fall 96 and b) the modulus bass was an essential ingredient). Both solid choices IMO
Rosey@lumpblockclod @mrcompletely @Neddyo @chopaganda @rjbee.bsky.social @thejediswitch.bsky.social I missed this conversation today and I have strong feelings on the subject that deserve a more sober approach.
@lumpblockclod @Neddyo @chopaganda @rjbee.bsky.social @thejediswitch.bsky.social yea I think since the band talked about playing that jam over and and and letting it soak in so they could absorb its influence it's kinda obviously the most "important" of that era. Without that evidence it's not even a debate I'd know how to approach.
