I believe Jackson Browne can be credited with what was called "California Jam" when it grew out of a few West coast singer/songwriters. The style really gained stregth when the Eagles had a hit with JB's "Take It Easy" and grew from there. "Doctor My Eyes" off Saturate Before Using is anothe example of the "Jam" sound. I believe the Eagles were of this ilk rather than a clone of Poco as Poco was MUCH more country leaning, especially early on.
