Yeah! I was surprised to learn that Blues Traveler is a jam band when playing live. I'm good with a few extended jams and/or a medley at a show (especially if the former includes a good solo); I would not like a concert of mostly jams.
I had a few of their albums but Four was my favorite. In fact, one of my favorite songs of all time is on that album: “Just Wait” hit me at a challenging time in my life as I was in early recovery from my alcohol and drug addiction. And the message, “there’s no such thing as a failure who keeps trying, coasting you the bottom is the only disgrace” REALLY resonated with me.
A truly fun band to listen to, at least their early works. Inventive , interesting and catchy tunes.

The frontman, John Popper, lived life large, both literally and figuratively.
