Been listening to some 70s cds in the car lately for a change (mainly a 60s person)
I started to wonder why the trend towards longer record times came about, what were the writers thinking and why change? Irrespective of your taste and whether you like these records or not some of them go on for so long and are so repetitive, doesn't it do your head in after a bit?
So what I'm asking really is even if you like the 70s records doesn't it get on your nerves after 4 mins or so?
Give me 2mins 30secs, wham bang thank you ma'am any time!
