Harvest of Souls - IQ (Dark Matter) is a must.
The Narrow Margin - IQ (Subterranea) is breathtaking, but it's a concept album and needs to be listened to in its entirety. The Last Human Gateway - IQ (Tales From the Lush Attic) it's 19.57 to be exact but so good it doesn't matter. Eruption - Focus (Focus II or Moving Waves) is magnificent. Hamburger Concerto - Focus (Hamburger Concerto) is excellent.

....... A few more I thought of: Univers Zero - La Faulx (25:18) Gerard Manset "La Mort D'Orion" (24:28) Ash Ra Tempel "Traummaschine" (25:24) Bubu "El Cortejo de un Día Amarillo" (19:25) Yes, not quite, but a good long one. never-the-less. Herbie Hancock "Sleeping Giant" (24:48). Earth and Fire "Song of the Marching Children" (18:20) Thought about mentioning this before even though its under 19 minutes, but I find this too good not to mention. And then there are a tonne of long electronic instrumentals, such as by Tangerine Dream and lesser known ones, and electric jazz acts. Edited by Logan - December 12 2019 at 02:58 |

Well, why not Chupacabras (22 mn) by Phideaux ? And for me, the best suite of 2019: The Tea Club - Creature (27 mn). Matthew Parmenter (the leader of Discipline): Modern Times (21 mn) (if you like VDGG).

I listened to harvest of souls from a reply on this thread, and wow. It does strongly emulate suppers ready, but nevertheless it was amazing.

Partially to be awkward, I wrote a 37 minute long Krautrock song on my second album back in 2014.
Now I'm not quite sure why I did it. I'd written 17 minute songs before, this one just grew and grew into a kind of symphony. I try to avoid doing massively long songs now, to be honest. I wasn't particularly bothered about being awkward or making it impossible to play on radio, it was just an enormous one off. ;-) I suppose some people replying to the thread will say "why write a long piece ? " to which the answer is "why not, it's art, no rules other than the ones you choose to follow." Anyway, here it is, somewhat Teutonically. ;-) https://brotherhoodofthemachine.bandcamp.com/album/trip-hazard |

A 2CD concept album rather than a long song, how about Motorpsycho & Ståle Storløkken - The Death Defying Unicorn:

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

"Close to the Edge" and "Flight" are actually shorter than 20 minutes. "Echoes" by Pink Floyd is surprisingly not on your list. how about "Gravedigger" by Janus? or "Meurglys III - The Songwriter's Guild" by Van der Graaf Generator? "only" 18:20, but you may like it: "Sommerabend" by Novalis or how about "Rockpommels Land" by Grobschnitt? or "Sunrise" by Sahara? or "Bel Air" by Can?
