I've just put on Ninja Cuts Funkjazztical Tricknology, which has a 
total of 79:38 mins.  That's surely packed to the gills :-)  And 
apparently there now are 80-min CD-R's on the market too.

Yes, I do feel shortchanged when a modern-day release has a 
microscopical running time - it's understandable when re-issues of 
previous vinyl only releases have an under 40-min total.

Somehow I don't buy the argument that as a work of art, it's as 
long as it is - as long as it should be..  Blah.  Give us your 
outtakes - we've got the choice to skip and fast forward.
