Disc Jockeys used to call these "Bowel Movement Songs," not because they were bad but because they gave the DJ time ti run down the hall and attend to the needs of nature.

For me, probably "Tubular Bells" by Mike Oldfield, or "Scheherezade" by Reniassance.

I own at least three CDs where the entire disc is one long song, though in a couple of cases the disc is divided into several tracks. (As you might guess, I'm a prog rock fan too!)

My favorite of these album-length songs is probably "The Way Up" by the Pat Metheny Group. It clocks in at a little over 68 minutes.

The other two that come to mind, and that I also like a lot, are "A Pleasant Shade of Gray" by Fates Warning (around 54 minutes) and "Mei" by Echolyn (around 50 minutes).

Oh, and I forgot about "Thick as a Brick" by Jethro Tull, which I think is around 45 minutes. However, I don't like that album/song as much as many other prog rock fans seem to. In my book it's pretty good, but not something that I want to go back and listen to very often at all.

Did you know the title came from slurring the words, "In the Garden of Eden"?

I always associate it with the end of the movie MANHUNTER now.

Reflections in Suspension by Steve Roach. It is Transcendental music and the track is 16 minutes long and very relaxing.

Perhaps not so many people ENJOY listening to that one ... Not that I'd know, never heard it in my life.
