They have, largely in the past, had elements of jazz fusion. That’s mostly behind them. They’re not that band these days.

Ya, they've never been a pure "jam" band even when they did have longer musical portions to their songs. Most songs pre 2000 didn't even breach like 10 to 11 minutes. When I first started listening to the band, I thought a song at 10 minutes was really long!
But in all reality in present day DMB #41, Jimi Thing, Two Step, Seek Up, are really the only songs you'll find them improving/jamming on all that much anymore. Occasionally there are others, but elongating outros and intros isn't really jamming in comparison to what other "jam" bands do.
