This mix is dedicated to Rupert of KatherynandRupert, since he can appreciate a few long songs strung together. Hope that there are a few others out there who can as well.

Thanks for the dedication. I have a much longer attention span than Kathryn but that's because I'm older and my brain is slower. Love that Donna Summer track and that Floyd song is one of their finest moments. I'm going to stick the 12" of Tainted Love on now.

3, 4 and 7 could get me to pay attention any day. Fun idea for the two CD set, btw.

Mercifully, you chose not to include In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida! My fave "long play" (seriously dating me) would be Macarthur Park by Rich*rd Harris. Beside its campiness factor, the 7-minute-plus epic was frequently heard in its entirety on the AM airwaves in '68.

Can't say how much I'm lovin' this... I think track 5 is the only one I don't have, and I love (LOVE) long cuts...
