Phish - Reba
I was 15 when I first herd Phish and I hated them. My friend was a big Phish fan and I thought it was just music for hippies. Then one night a bunch of us partied really hard and crashed at his place in the living room and he woke us all up the next morning by playing this song on his stereo. It starts off with this sort of quirky nursery rhyme-ish part and then goes into a jazzy interlude before a powerful improvised jam builds up over several minutes then stops suddenly at its peak to reprise the beginning section.
I have to say that the jam in the middle of that song is one of my favorite musical moments ever. It definitely changed music for me, got me into more progressive stuff and made me keep an open mind when it came to music and life.
