Yes - of course, I should have said that. We can't have this thread without tapping into the 60s - british invasion stuff naturally, and a lot of the classic motown single barely broke two minutes. | |

all of the older stuff was pretty short. that's part of what's great about 50's/60's and some 70's stuff. they could fit everything into 2, 3, 3 and a 1/2 minutes, and it doesn't feel like anything's missing.
i'd like it if that trend came back, because, frankly, if you can't fit it into 4 minutes, then you've either lost your way somewhere in the middle of it or you're too in love with your own talent. | |

It's making me think of those short cool Dave Clark Five, Gerry and The Pacemakers, Zombies, etc, tunes. And the Chuck Berry, Little Richard & Fats Domino tunes. tA  Tribal Disorder

Come to think of it, most of the tunes on that 1st Moby Grape album were under 3:00. tA Tribal Disorder

I think the Beach Boys' Little Deuce Coupe barely goes for two minutes... | |
