1990 until now tracks of 30 minutes and over

I did a poll for tracks over 40 minutes, but then I thought it might work better as a list kind of topic here. This should be about ones you very much like

I am specifically looking for album releases (be it live or studio) where the individual tracks are over 30 minutes long and it is not broken up into pieces on the album. I want to cover 90s until now music specifically.

Please list the track name, track length and album, and a hyperlink to youtube would be great if possible. I will make a playlist with the mentions.

So all of these are one track releases rather than split up into parts on the albums, and I only have covered Fishmans, The Necks and Swans.

60 minutes plus:

The Necks "Hanging Gardens" (off Hanging Garden, 1998, 60:30)
The Necks "Drive By" (off Drive By, 2003, 60:17)

Some more applicable The Necks tracks that I have yet to hear in full:
* The Necks "Aether" (off Aether, 2001, 63:49)
* The Necks "Mosquito" (off Mosquito / See Through, 2004, 61.43)
* The Necks "See Through" (off Mosquito / See Through, 2004, 61:47)
* The Necks "Silverwater" (off Silverwater, 2009, 67:15)
* The Necks "Open" (off Open, 2013, 68:05)
* The Necks "Vertigo" (off Vertigo, 2015, 43:57)

50 minutes plus:

The Necks "Body" (off Body, 2018, 56:39)
Swans "The Beggar" (Live Rope, 2024, 52:54)

40 minutes plus:

Fishmans "Long Season" (off 98.12.28, released 1999, 41:31)
Fishmans "Long Season" (off 96.12.26 Akasaka Blitz, released 2016, 40:04)
Swans "The Beggar Lover (Three)" (The Beggar, 43:51, 2023)
Swans "The Knot" (Deliquescence, 2017, 45:38)
* The Necks "Vertigo" (off Vertigo, 2015, 43:57) (not heard yet)

30 minutes plus:

Swans "The Seer" (The Seer, 2012, 32:13 )
Swans "Bring the Sun / Toussaint L'Ouverture' (To Be Kind, 2014, 34:05)

Here's a playlist of those I mentioned which I know well and I hope to add others mentions.



Again, please limit ti to tracks of 30 or more minutes from 1990 until now where it was released on an album (be it studio or live, or DVD) as one single track rather than broken up into sections under the same title (and it should work as a single piece).

Battlestations - Splinters Vol. I Tremor (Bandcamp link) (43:08, 2021)
Couldn't find it on youtube.

Thanks for those, only one I know now (and should have remembered) is Richard Dawson's "The Hermit". I very much like The Ruby Cord and his Peasant (I also liked 2020 and Henki but this year's End of the Middle has not resonated as much) . Starting off checking out that The Flaming Lips (more indication to me, not that I need it, that it was a good add (one person complained after it was added because it has not been accepted in the distant past). Liked what I heard of the Battlestations and Czukay (brief listens).

Hi,

That Richard Dawson is magnificent ... reminds me occasionally of Robert Wyatt, but the music and words in this are much freer and well done. Wonderful stuff and certainly an excellent listen!
