Heck, “Echoes” by Pink Floyd is like 20+ minutes.

Must be the ELP version of Fanfare ;-)

I wonder which version Caulfield prefers?

Mountain Jam. Allman Brothers. Eat a Peach

Ah yes, the gift to be simple….

I need to thank everyone for the links. A great start to my day, I need to listen to this stuff more often.

Tubular Bells by Mike Oldfield, 49:16 or Oxygène by Jean-Michel Jarré, 39:44. Dim the lights, a rye and coke, you’re ready.

Mrs. Olsen should hum the minute waltz for him.

Get ready live is an all time favorite long jam

Hey y’all, thank for the (stereo) blast from the past:)

Beethoven’s 9th Symphony. Somewhere around 75 minutes.

why is my brain humming, “You can get anything you want at Alice’s Restaurant…” Arlo I loved your daddy’s music [not his politics] and you obviously learned from your sire, but really all that over Thanksgiving and a closed dump?

Why am I not surprised that he listens to Aaron Copland.

If you really want to get your brain revved up, go with “Flight of the Bumblebee”.

How about American Pie by Don McLean?

Am I the only one who finds this kid annoying most of the time?

Peaceful Easy Feeling (1972) by the Eagles. It’s country-pop, but who cares? I like it!

I’m not sure Stairway to Heaven would be the same success if it were released today, and it has nothing to do with changing tastes in music. It has to do with my belief that Led Zeppelin released that song in an era when disc jockeys personally cued up and played actual records, and that, like other humans, sometimes a disc jockey’s gotta go spend some time on the loo.

I’ve thought that from the beginning, and my theory was confirmed one fine night of my teen-aged life when the midnight DJ at WLAV (how appropriate) cued up the Stairway and scooted down the hall. He returned at the end of the requisite eight minutes to discover that the needle had gotten stuck at about the 30-second mark. “Hellooooooooo,” he said. “Shoulda gone with Free Bird,” he probably thought.

I recently heard someone asking a bunch of kids, “If you had to chose one song that you would have to listen to constantly for the rest of your life, what would you pick?” My choice would be " 4’33’’ ".

In a gadda da vida, easy to remember

I immediately thought of Shari Lewis, and this song: https://youtu.be/1_47KVJV8DU
