What part of a song you wished it never ended?

Rush on New World Man, Alex jamming away, Geddy's bass pumping, and Neil in full flight.

The Who and the Jon Astley mid 90s remix project extended the fade on Cry If You Want, a great addition to the end of It's Hard with Pete jamming away.

The extended Won't Get Fooled Again ending that cranks back up and ends all over again that I first saw on the '82 tour. More time for Pete jumps and windmills and crescendos, Ox and the drums thundering away. They still do it today, and still exciting being there live.

 

Tasty choice!

 

.....the whole thing really.

 

The lead solo on Steely Dan's "Kings" (Elliott Randall)

From a 2012 interview with Guitarist Magazine...

“When we were doing Kings I just thought, you know what? I’m going to let my emotions rule this one. And scrutiny of that solo shows that it goes from being quite melodic to being completely out-to-lunch. You know when I do that descending whole-tone thing? It’s like, what the hell is that? But that’s what I was feeling at the time. It had nothing to do with what was going on in the track even, but I was letting my emotions run wild and who knows why, but it worked.”

 

The end orchestration for I Cheat The Hangman by The Doobie Brothers. A haunting song made more visceral because of the work of Nick DeCaro.

 

The fade out....

 

The opening shattering glass and keyboard riff in "Plainsong", by The Cure...on and on...forever.

 

Stunning solo at 1.45 minutes should last forever.

 

The end of Magical Mystery Tour. Sounds like the start of a really interesting psychedelic jam but it ends much too early.

 

Buckingham's solo in "Gypsy"
Asheton's solo in "No Fun"
Coltrane's "Ole" (18+ minutes just doesn't cut it!)
Most every solo Tom Verlaine ever played.
Richard Thompson's solo in "Shoot Out The Lights"

 

The first 1.40 minutes, gone soooo quickly

 

Personally, I'd rather that one never start

 

Three bridges:

Moody Blues, Story in Your Eyes
Dwight Twilley, You Were So Warm
Chameleons, In Answer

Two by Tai Phong:

intro, For Years and Years (Cathy)
last section (the one wth the vocals), The Gulf of Knowledge

That's what came immediately to mind. I could think of dozens of others in short order.

Edit: Like the bridge section of Dance Girl Dance by Cinerama. Whole song really, like most of these.

 

The instrumental outro to Elvis Costello & the Attractions' "Home Is Anywhere You Hang Your Head"

Great interplay between the Thomases, EC and Nieve

 

Never heard that Churchills track before but it's terrifically good! And MUCH too short.

I've had the Gracious LP since '73 after hearing Heaven on the radio. It's an excellent track. I even had to call up the radio station to find out what it was! I think it was David Marsden I spoke to. Amoureuse by Kiki Dee was another one I found out like this, She Said by Barclay James Harvest was a third.

I'm listening to The Dream right now. I'm not sure where your section is, we're up to 12 minutes and I must have missed it ...

 

The "funk" section of Pink Floyd's "Echoes."

Oh by the way, the recently released Live at Pompeii version might be better than the studio.
SQ is awesome.

 

Man, have I got good news for you:

Tomorrow Never Knows (50 minute version)

 

Fading timid termination for a beautiful song,

 

I'd bet I could listen to the heavenly chorus from Circles by the New Seekers almost ad infinitum before I got sick of it. At least the last half of this clip, although the best version of the song is the 4:45 single on Elektra.

 

Genesis. Closing section of Supper's Ready on Seconds Out. Bliss.

 

I would say just about my Richard Thompson solo.

 

The saxophone and guitar section in Little Feat's Mercenary Territory on their Waiting for Columbus album.

 

Supertramp Goodbye Stranger
Culture Club Do You Really Want To Hurt Me?
The Moody Blues Question

 

Yeah, I actually thought that while typing it. Absolutely true.

 

Man oh man, I would say the end of ELP's lucky man, that Moog synth sounded awesome, its a shame it ended quickly......
