[Revolutionary]

sorry my longset son is this

 

[Resurrectionist]

Thick As A Brick by Jethro Tull
43 minutes, 45 seconds.

 

[Danz D Man]

2112 is one of my favorites, yay for similar tasters OP

Also, "In the Presence of Enemies" by Dream Theater is very good. And Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence. And A Change of Seasons. haha

 

[Vhite]

This. I'm not a fan of most music other than atmospheric/instrumental/really clever or generally good sounding songs.

 

[KingOfRoll]

Clocking in at 34:53, my favorite long song would have to be A Plague of Butterflies, by Swallow the Sun. Other good long ones are Twilight of the Gods - Bathory (though it's technically three songs) and The Dead Flag Blues, by Godspeed You! Black Emperor.

Helloween - The Keepers Trilogy. It was released on their unarmed album its at around 17 minutes long so the tube link is in two parts

Spoiler: Here are the two parts

But the song itself is actually a cut down and a different take on three of their longest songs, the first one Halloween is 13 minutes long, the second one which is Keeper of the Seven Keys is 13 minutes long and the first one which is King for a Thousand Years is close to 14 minutes long. So in total around 30 minutes of awesome.

 

[Dr.Susse]

George Gershwin - Rhapsody in Blue
Mozart - Requiem Masse
Ralph Vaughan Williams - Fantasia on a Theme
Franz List - Faust
Richard Wanger - Tristan and Isolde (Prelude and Liebestod)
Stravinsky - The Rite of Spring
Charlie Parker - What is this thing called Love
(Actually there's a ton of Jazz music that goes well past 15 minutes, Charlie Parker, Chet Baker, Gerry Mulligan, Miles Davis, Art Tatum, John Coltrane)

Several full length (60-90 minutes) mixes by Timecode (Moving Shadows), LTJ Bukem, DJ Shadow & Cut Chemist (Product Placement, Brainfreeze sessions).

Led Zepplin and Pink Floyd both have seriously long versions of some songs. Atom Heart Mother, Astronomy Domine, Echoes, Whole lotta Love, Dazed and Confused, to name a few.

How could you ninja everything that I could ever think of to post here, not just the artists but even the songs........Are you me from another dimention?


Ot: My favourite though *Looks above to check again* Is the trio of Blue train, a love supreme and Afro blue by John Coltrane ahh Jazz. But Rhapsody in blue is an ever please for me too.

 

[NeoAC]

I have a dance mix that's an hour long, consisting of over 300 songs. That would be my favorite, since it's my only one.

 

[MONSTERheart]

Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Part 1) by Pink Floyd is 13:31
Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Part 2) by Pink Floyd is 12:23

Even though they're separated on the album, can I just consider them as one song?

 

[Et3rnalLegend64]

I don't have any real songs that are that long. Medleys don't count, right?

 

[cavekeeper]

Myn would have to be a change of seasons by dream theater

 

[Chrono180]

Pretty much anything by Dream Theater, especially Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence.

Oh and Thick as a Brick by Jethro Tull.

 

[dbmountain]

Grayceon - Ride

 

[Rama]

Thick As A Brick by Jethro Tull
43 minutes, 45 seconds.

Great album. Ever listen to Genesis?

My favorite would have to be Supper's Ready off their Foxtrot album. It's essentially seven short songs all packaged together in a classical-style suite that clocks in at around 23 minutes. Seeing it live is something to behold, tell ya.

George Gershwin - Rhapsody in Blue
Mozart - Requiem Masse
Ralph Vaughan Williams - Fantasia on a Theme
Franz List - Faust
Richard Wanger - Tristan and Isolde (Prelude and Liebestod)
Stravinsky - The Rite of Spring
Charlie Parker - What is this thing called Love

I see you and raise you a bunch of Tchaikovsky! His Violin Concerto is good, as is the overture to Romeo & Juliet.

"Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder" by Jagat Skad

 

[cavekeeper]
