Was listening to the radio today and heard "Alice's Restaurant" by Arlo Guthrie...clocked in at around 18 or 19 minutes long...I know Ina-godda-da-vida by Iron Butterfly is around 16 minutes...
Any other songs of exceptional length? I know there are others out there, but can't think of them at the moment...

Steppenwolf's long version of The Pusher is quite long. Don't remember how long but it was most of the side (except for one song) of an album.

Traffic's "Low Spark of High Heeled Boys" is like 12 minutes long. Stanley Jordan's "Cornucopia" is over 20 minutes.
The Greatful Dead had some very very long live songs as well.
