Sultans of Swing (Dire Straits)

I always considered the song the best quarter:minute ratio on the jukebox growing up.

24 Hours At A Time - Marshall Tucker Band

Oh Yea,
Neil Young - Like A Hurricane (From Rust Never Sleeps)

The Little Things Give You Away - Linkin Park...

Tool - Third Eye
Janes Addiction -Three Days

Also
Tool - Wings for Marie Pt. 1 & 2

A Better Place to Be - Harry Chapin (11 mins. live version)

Yeah, your right. Should have read better before posting.

Late Edit: Stairway to Heaven

;-)

waiting for the man -velvet underground
beast of burden - the rolling stones
temptation - new order

Close. The runtime of the original track is only 5:48

Although you could be thinkinng of the live version witch I believe was much longer.


One "long song" by Dire Straights that I always loved is called Telegraph Road.... it's on incredible tune, and a true long song.

Free Bird

4:24

Not a true long song (at least not one over 6 minutes).

Harry Chapin is incredible, and had several amazing long songs. :thumbsup

Just what comes to my mind:

From your list: Layla - that's a massive song including the story behind it..

From Jimi Hendrix - I always liked 1983 / Voodoo Chile / anything from the "Blues" album

From the more recent stuff:

"Three Days" by Jane Addiction or "Just like you" by Rollins band always worked for me

Star Wars Theme-disco version by Meco. The special edition release had that one tune covering about 28 minutes on an entire album side.

Yea, cheesy as hell now, and probably then, but I was young enough to not care or even know better.

Edit for lack of paying attention

In Memory of Elizabeth Reed - Allman Brothers
Daydream - Robin Trower
And You and I - Yes
Slippin' Into Darkness - War

Holiday and Changes-Black sabbath
I'm still loving you- meatloaf
zombie- Cranberries
hotel California- Eagles etc:)

Juvinile-- Give me your number 7 mins and 45 sec.

1. Jimi Hendrix - Voodoo Child ... masterpiece from Electric Ladyland.
2. Black Sabbath - Warning
3. Iron Butterfly - Inna Gadda da Vita.
4. SRV - Voodoo Child ( slight Return ) live .
5. Rush - most of their jams live :)

How about "The Mountain Jam" from the Allman Brothers? :)

Don't know any longer tune in the rock history it's over 33 minutes.. but a live take too, true..
