JSngry Posted July 31, 2015 Report Posted July 31, 2015 I'm never paying for anything ever again, especially books and records. Half-Price, Shmaff-Price. These days, it's free or go home! Quote
Milestones Posted July 31, 2015 Report Posted July 31, 2015 There are a lot of great long tracks by Miles Davis, particularly from the early fusion days. Anything from Silent Way, Bitches Brew, Jack Johnson--that is, if you don't already have these classics. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted July 31, 2015 Report Posted July 31, 2015 One For John is great. The whole record is awesome, though, and "China" is maybe about five or six minutes longer... Quote
mjzee Posted July 31, 2015 Report Posted July 31, 2015 If you want to expand your horizons a little, download a track of Indian music. For example, this album has two tracks that are over 50 minutes long, each for 99 cents:http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JPTIEMS/ref=dm_ws_sp_ps_dpIf you want more choice, just do an Amazon search for "raga."

GA Russell Posted July 31, 2015 Author Report Posted July 31, 2015 Michael, that's an interesting idea. I remember seeing Ravi Shankar in Monterey Pop.BillF, I think your Duke at Newport suggestion is great! I bought it a couple of years ago for maybe 99 cents!The Amazon rep suggested that maybe the Charles Tyler is now longer available. Well it so happens that we have the label's owner right here. Chuck, what say you? Is Saga of the Outlaws no longer available at Amazon as an mp3? Quote
T.D. Posted July 31, 2015 Report Posted July 31, 2015 Sorry for the bum suggestion, GA. When I purchased the CD from Amazon, I noticed the mp3 offered at a very low price. But I don't do downloads (poor connection at home), and didn't realize that the Amazon link led to a completely different product. Quote
Peter Friedman Posted July 31, 2015 Report Posted July 31, 2015 Though not as lengthy as some other suggestions, at 13:26 "Funky Blues" might be my choice.It is the only opportunity to hear Charlie Parker, Johnny Hodges and Benny Carter together on one tune.You also get to hear Ben Webster, Flip Phillips, Charlie Shavers and Barney Kessel on that same tune.

mgraham333 Posted August 1, 2015 Report Posted August 1, 2015 Title track from Jimmy Smith's The Sermon Quote
GA Russell Posted August 1, 2015 Author Report Posted August 1, 2015 T'was never really available.That's a shame. I was psyched to get that! Quote
JSngry Posted August 1, 2015 Report Posted August 1, 2015 In all seriousness, that raga collection looks to be a good recommendation. Quote
Steve Reynolds Posted August 1, 2015 Report Posted August 1, 2015 2x3=5Schlippenbach Trio crossed with Parker-Guy-Lytton76 or 77 minute continuous performance.Awe inspiring. I would have died and been reincarnated if I was ever able to witness that show in person Quote

clifford_thornton Posted August 2, 2015 Report Posted August 2, 2015 (edited) I was at a performance by that 2x3=5 band - pretty wild. Edited August 2, 2015 by clifford_thornton Quote
