Actually, even prior to the release of PH's album featuring "In Held Twas In I," Iron Butterfly released "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida," which included the first side-long track.

Peace.

Shouldn't they be in the archive section then?

Good question. I have not heard much of IB, but my general idea is that they were a prgressive-psicodelic band, between the pioneers of the movement.

 

It may be a side long track, but "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" is at essence a simple verse/chorus song with a very catchy riff and an extended jam around said catchy riff. The rest of the album (of the same name) is, IMHO, fairly average - you'd do better buying any Doors album.

Slayer did an interesting cover of it - which I think is only available on a compilation called "River's Edge".

It's on a soundtrack too, I'm not sure which one (Slayer that is).

1969 and the song was Who do You Love written by Ellsi McDaniel the same song George Thorogood did in the eighties. Bo Diddley stole some of the lyrics when he recorded it and called the song Bo Diddley.

Bo Diddley aka Elias Bates aka Elias McDaniels - sorry couldn't  resist. I had my Guinness Who's Who Of Blues out to check up on Alexis Korner for another thread, and found a lenghty piece on Bo Diddley which reveals a lot - including bands that covered his Who Do You Love.

You didn't specify rock side-length tracks, classical movements weighing in that long(or much longer) have been in abundance since the beginning of the music being pressed on LP.
Prog is the new punk, becuase kids who shop at Hot Topic don't know Bill Bruford is God.

Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick is a 44 minute song
broken into 2 parts to accomodate being placed on
two sides of the original vinyl recording.
Making it the first rock album to have one continuous
song on both sides of an album.
