Structure
At 33:41, the song is instrumental and features solos from all of the band members. Duane Allman starts with a guitar solo, after which Gregg Allman solos on Hammond organ, followed by a guitar solo by Dickey Betts. Midway through the song there is a drum duet by Butch Trucks and Jaimoe, later joined by a bass guitar solo by Berry Oakley. Then Duane comes back in for the slide guitar climax, and produces some of his best known slide guitar; 23 minutes in. Mountain Jam was originally released on the Eat a Peach album, as well as a different version on Live at Atlanta Pop Festival, where there are two recordings of it (the second of which features guest musicians Johnny Winter on slide guitar, and Thom Doucette on harmonica), and various live recordings of the band.
