U2 - "Unknown Caller"
The Guess Who - "Friends Of Mine"
Led Zeppelin - "In My Time Of Dying"
The Who - "Doctor Jimmy"
Rush - "Cygnus X-1 Book 2: Hemispheres"
Yes - "The Gates Of Delirium"
King Crimson - "Larks' Tongues In Aspic, Part One"
Jethro Tull - "A Passion Play"
Genesis - "Supper's Ready"
Emerson, Lake, & Palmer - "Karn Evil 9"

Most of these aren't my favorite songs by their respective artists, but they're long(-ish) songs I really like that also have varied sections and would take me a longer time to get tired of.

"There's nothing wrong with U2. As far as I'm concerned, I've stolen from Larry Mullen's career for years. Without Larry, I wouldn't be able to stomp and sing, it'd be difficult. I mean I owe debts to the Bhundu Boys, Larry Mullen, Stewart Copeland. They're good players, and they're great songwriters" - Gary "Reni" Wren, drummer, The Stone Roses reunion press conference, 18/10/2011

"I'd just like to put on record that that's bobbins" - Ian Brown, singer, ditto

Today it's this:

Fisherman's Blues - the Waterboys
Read About It - Midnight Oil
Since I've Been Loving You - Led Zeppelin
Ghost Love Score (live Wacken 2013 version) - Nightwish
Awaken - Yes
Black Magic Woman/Gypsy Queen (live Moonflower version) - Santana
Sun Goddess - Ramsey Lewis feat. Earth Wind & Fire
Aventurar - Amanitas
Rocket's Tail - Kate Bush
Waterfront - Simple Minds

...as always, subject to great change, although the first and last would probably always be those two. Last one for sure. Also, this is a long-ass playlist; 3-7 are damn near 50 minutes long combined. Well, that's where my mind's at these days, I guess.
