I'm not being sarcastic. There was nothing sarcastic about that post, custynoob. I'm just speaking the truth. Some of the finest pieces of music ever written, whether it's Phish or Schumann is UNDER 5 minutes. That's just truth.

I like exploratory jams. I've been around Phish since 1992, and I have often praised their long crazy jams. BUT length or number of songs does not mean quality...in any context. It just doesn't...whether or not you prefer a 25 minutes 2001 from 1998 that doesn't accomplish very much other than a beat to move to or a 6 minute Runaway Jim from 1992 that shreds your face or 2 and half minute version of Schumann's 'Traumerei.". It just doesn't matter. No sarcasm...just truth. Good music isn't determined by the length the improvisation or composition.
