Longest early 70's disco song?

[Funky Dude]

I wonder what is the longest early 70's disco song?



The longest ones I know of are:



Creative Source - Who Is He & What Is He To You 1973 (11:44)



Isaac Hayes - Persuit Of The Pimpmobile 1974 (9:07)



Temptations - Papa Was A Rolling Stone 1972 (11:47) (More so a funk song than disco but I'll include it anyway)



Deodato - Super Strut 1974 (9:31)



They are the longest ones I know of, does anyone know of any longer early 70's disco songs?

Love To Love You Baby - Donna Summer (16:48)



Try Me, I Know We Can Make It - Donna Summer

(17:57)



I can't think of any other songs that is

longer than these. My mother said that in

the discotheques, the D.Js would extend

Try Me to the max. So instead of 17 minutes,

you may be dancing for 20min- a half an hour.



DELIGHTFUL!

If you include both sides of Romeo and Juliet, then I would think that would be the one of the longest disco compositions (perhaps 30 minutes).

Funky Dude,

Once I've seen the "Longest Disco Song Post"

then I realized that I made a mistake posting

in the "early" list. Otherwise, I can't think

of any "Early Long Disco Songs".

I remember that "here comes that sound again"

was over 16 minutes long.

Hey GROOVYGUCCIMAMA, I was wondering what was the name of the artist who sings "Here Comes That Sound Again" and which year did it came out?

Hello everybody:



Here Comes That Sound is from Love De Luxe and, as far as I remember it was released in 1979 (maybe 1980).



I can't really remember how long these following songs are, but probably they are bigger than those you mentioned:



CERRONE:

supernature



SANTA ESMERALDA:

the wages of sin (their best work)

the house of the rising sun

don't let me be misunderstood

(all 3 occupy the whole A side)



EL COCO

Hi Funky



Forgive my previous post. I also didn't see the word EARLY long disco song.

Just out of interest, did anyone of the former DJs on this board ever generally play more than 5 minutes of any one song?
I personally feel that the producers went wrong when they started to extend intros beyond 24 bars, or possibly 32 bars.
Hmmm, now where are those 12"s with the 3 minute intros?

I always thought the Top 40 oriented clubs played only a few minutes of each song and mixed out at the first break, however the underground clubs seemed to play the songs longer.
