THIS IS NOT AN EPICS POLL: The 10+ minute long nominations thread, ILM Ballot Poll #58

Ah, very sorry - I misread the rules. There are a few more I repeated, I'm afraid :-(

I think this is the full set of duplicates to be removed from my list:

Yo La Tengo - Blue Line Swinger
Of Montreal - The Past is a Grotesque Animal
Neu! - Hallogallo
Neil Young - Cowgirl in the Sand
Television - Marquee Moon
Miles Davis - Shhh/Peaceful
John Coltrane - Africa

Personally I'd say that "classical" is a piece of music with a score that could, theoretically, be played on "standard" instrumentation. So Arvo Part = classical, Alvin Lucier's I Am Sitting In A Room doesn't.

I totally agree with this, I don't think the Pärt piece should count. "Spiegel Im Spiegel" doesn't have any a definite length in minutes, it depends on the performance, plus it has different arrangements by Pärt too. I have one recording of it arranged for cello and piano that only lasts 9 minutes.

Rush - 2112
Bob Dylan - Brownsville Girl

10/20

Where does Steve Reich fit in the 'classical' debate ? If he's allowed I'll swap two of my duplicates for 'Music for a large Ensemble' and 'Octet' ...

Can are so going to suffer from vote-splitting.

Temple Of The Dog - Reach Down
Smashing Pumpkins - Starla
Donna Summer - Try Me I Know We Can Make It
Pram - In Dreams You Too Can Fly

4/20

I'm looking for a 10+ min version of YLT's Blue Line Swinger but haven't come up with anything. Studio version is 9:18.

only "Halleluwah" & maaaaybe "Yoo Doo Right" should get any votes imo (xpost)

I'm thinking carefull about my noms, maybe overthinking, so what the hell, here's one more: Inter Arma's 45-minute single-song Cavern EP from last year, which is probably not better than the best tracks on Sky Burial, but gets the nod for being, did we mention, 45 MINUTES LONG and EFFIN' SWEET THRUOUT

well i'm voting in this poll now

It's funny to see Steve Reich mentioned since he seems (along with some of the other big-name minimalists, & distinct from John Cage) to have reacted in a unique way to the advent of the "recorded music era", which is of course the inescapable horizon of this thread premise -- in other words, his work looks incomplete when viewed from here. But I love about 4 or 5 discs of that ginormous boxset I picked up for cheap based on ILM buzz, so I'm happy whatever we decide about his eventual eligibility for our silly little poll :P

For a second I misread the OP as Rules: song must be hard & fast & I was like, does Bathory's "Blood Fire Death" count? because it's not very fast by modern standards~

Can are so going to suffer from vote-splitting.

so then vote for more than 1 can song.

Somehow forgot:

Neil Young & Crazy Horse - Driftin' Back

It's epictastically epic.

Not sure how disco will fare in this poll, but also:
